Ghanaian musician Raphael Camidoh Attachie, known professionally as Camidoh, has released his latest musical offering, a single titled "Slow." The track features Nigerian artist Magixx, who is signed to the prominent Lagos-based Mavin Records label.
The song, described as combining elements of Afropop and R&B with prominent harmonies and a rhythm suited for festive environments, was produced by Zogli Noble, professionally known as Nektunez. Nektunez gained significant international recognition following the viral success of his "Ameno Amapiano Remix" earlier in the year.
"Slow" marks a follow-up release for Camidoh after his single "Kaba," which garnered attention in 2022. The release signifies a continued effort by the artist to build upon his existing musical catalogue and expand his audience.
Camidoh, a singer and songwriter, reportedly began pursuing music seriously at the age of 14, citing international artists like Akon and Chris Brown as early influences. His musical style is characterized by a blend of contemporary Afropop sounds native to West Africa and elements derived from American R&B traditions. This fusion has contributed to building a following both within Ghana and among international listeners interested in African popular music.
His career gained initial traction with the single "For My Lover," a collaboration with fellow Ghanaian artist DarkoVibes. Notably, Camidoh was credited as both the performer and producer on that track, highlighting his multifaceted capabilities.
Since his emergence, Camidoh has maintained visibility in the Ghanaian music industry through consistent releases and performances at significant national events. His performance history includes appearances at Citi FM's annual "Decemba 2 Rememba" concert, rapper Sarkodie's "This Is Tema" festival, and the 2020 edition of the "Rapahohic" concert series, also associated with Sarkodie.
The release of "Slow," featuring a notable emerging artist from Nigeria's influential Mavin Records, indicates a potential strategy to foster cross-border appeal and tap into the wider West African music market. The collaboration brings together talent from two of the continent's major music hubs, Accra and Lagos. Industry observers anticipate the track will receive airplay and find placement on playlists focusing on contemporary African party music.
