Few partnerships in Afropop feel as natural as that of Mr Eazi and King Promise. Over the years, the Nigerian and Ghanaian stars have built a track record of collaborations that blur national borders and embody the spirit of contemporary African music: vibrant, communal, and unashamedly global. Their latest offering, “See What We’ve Done,” arrives as both a personal and artistic celebration—a song that pairs the intimacy of friendship with the sweep of triumph.
Produced by Gideonite and GuiltyBeatz, the single rides on buoyant log drum patterns and subtle Amapiano inflections, merging Ghana’s rhythmic elasticity with Nigeria’s melodic finesse. Mr Eazi and King Promise don’t just sing about success; they embody it. The record unfurls like a toast raised at the end of a long journey, affirming resilience, blessings, and the importance of celebrating with the people who matter most. “It’s us toasting to the journey, the struggles, the prayers, and now the blessings,” Mr Eazi reflects, grounding the track in gratitude as much as opulence.
The release is accompanied by a striking black-and-white video directed by Andre Ladon and filmed in Iceland during Mr Eazi’s wedding to actress Temi Otedola. Beyond its cinematic appeal, the setting underscores the song’s themes of togetherness and renewal. The visual feels less like a staged shoot and more like a document of joy—a convergence of personal milestones and artistic collaboration.
“See What We’ve Done” also marks an important career moment for both artists. For King Promise, it’s the first release of 2025 following the success of his third album True to Self, which solidified his reputation as one of Ghana’s most versatile voices. For Mr Eazi, the single continues a prolific return after hiatus, leading into his forthcoming EP Maison Rouge. Where some artists retreat into individualism after success, both seem committed to reinforcing their chemistry, emphasizing music’s communal roots.
As Afropop continues to dominate global charts, this collaboration offers more than just another hit. It’s a reminder that behind the streaming numbers and crossover moments are friendships, shared histories, and lived triumphs. On “See What We’ve Done,” Mr Eazi and King Promise aren’t simply recounting victories—they’re inviting listeners to raise a glass alongside them.
