Ghanaian artiste, AraTheJay, has revealed his willingness to pursue his music career amid obstacles, affirming that he is not slowing down anytime soon.
Speaking in an interview, the “Onoa” hitmaker stated that his struggles in the entertainment space made him write “Put Am On God”, a song off his “The Odyssey” album, where he spoke to God about his challenges.
“On the song, I was not being vulnerable but saying my truth and being open. The song is more like complaining to God, I just for tell am, I’m talking to God like am tired but I’m still here. I want Him to know that whatever has been set by ‘other people’ to like bring us back, I want Him to know I can see them, and I’m telling Him I’m not gonna give up (sic),” he said.
“The Odyssey” album is a 17-track journey continuing his celebrated “Finding Nimo” series.
Available now on all digital platforms, the album captures his boldest artistic statement yet: an immersive exploration of purpose, struggle, and triumph.
Framed as a hero’s journey, “The Odyssey” captures AraTheJay’s artistic evolution from his debut EP “The Capsule” to a bold new era of storytelling.
Each record unfolds a new chapter of self-discovery and spiritual endurance, showcasing an artiste grounded in truth, resilience, and divine inspiration.
Where “The Capsule” introduced AraTheJay as a curious observer, “The Odyssey” presents him as a man transformed into a dreamer who has wrestled with uncertainty and emerged renewed.
The album’s electric sonic palette fuses African rap, hip-hop, highlife melodies, and contemporary Afrobeats, all unified by Ara’s introspective lyricism and cinematic production.
The journey begins with the angelic hope of “Zion”, setting the tone for reflection and resolve on “Cover Me”. It moves through the grit of “Ground Zero” and the unshakable faith of “Put Am On God”, while tracks like “Peace 2”, “Ara No Dey Sleep”, “Motion”, “Timeless” and “Only Fans” showcase his versatility and emotional range.
