Ghanaian musicians Edem Goget’em and KiDi have joined forces on a new song, Higher, delivering a message of hope and resilience to listeners facing life’s challenges.
Released as Edem’s first single of 2025, Higher blends highlife with contemporary Afro sounds and draws inspiration from a popular Ghanaian church praise song.
Edem revealed that the idea came to him while watching a youth choir perform, saying, “It struck me—why not turn this into a beautiful highlife song that could resonate globally? And I believe I’ve done just that.”
Beyond its vibrant melody, the song highlights struggles faced by young people today.
Edem noted that financial difficulties and fear of failure are pushing many into unwanted paths, adding, “This song reminds us to hold on—everything will work out, and we will count our blessings one by one.”
Speaking about KiDi’s feature, Edem praised his delivery, saying, “KiDi on the song—because why not? He delivered beautifully, and his message fired up the hope that joy will come to us like a river.”
Higher is now available on all streaming platforms, serving as an anthem of encouragement for those looking forward to better days.
