Ghanaian singer-songwriter Gyakie has finally unveiled the title of her highly anticipated debut album, AFTER MIDNIGHT, leaving fans eager to dive into its melodies and lyrical depth. The announcement sparked curiosity, leading one fan to take to Snapchat with an inquiry:
“How did you come about the name?? Share with us.”
Gyakie’s response was not just insightful but deeply personal. She revealed that the title AFTER MIDNIGHT is a direct reflection of her creative process, emotions, and cherished memories. Most of the songs on the album were recorded in the late hours of the night, a time when she finds the most inspiration. The stillness of the night, the peaceful atmosphere, the occasional sounds of birds, and the overall serenity provide the perfect environment for her to write and compose music.
However, the album’s title holds even deeper significance beyond just her creative process. Gyakie shared that after midnight is also when she has had some of her most emotional moments. She admitted that in times of distress, she often schedules her tears for when she gets home from work. It is in those quiet hours that she allows herself to fully express and process her emotions.
In addition, Gyakie reminisced about her childhood, recalling a heartwarming tradition upheld by her mother. She explained that her mother would always pray for her and her siblings after midnight, while they were deeply asleep. This became a consistent routine in their household and remains a practice her mother still follows whenever they are together. These moments of midnight prayers have left a lasting impact on Gyakie, further reinforcing her connection to the late-night hours.
Bringing all these elements together, she summed up her inspiration by encouraging fans to listen to the album at 12:01 AM or during the early dawn hours. According to her, the emotions, themes, and sonic textures of AFTER MIDNIGHT hit differently when experienced in the stillness of the night.
With such a profound and sentimental meaning behind its title, AFTER MIDNIGHT promises to be more than just an album—it is a journey through Gyakie’s most personal and intimate moments. Fans are eagerly awaiting the release, knowing that every note and lyric is a reflection of her late-night musings, emotions, and memories. The album is set to offer an authentic and soul-stirring experience, bringing listeners into Gyakie’s world after midnight.
