Renowned producer Ghanaian Stallion just released his highly anticipated album, Bridges, a groundbreaking fusion of Afrodrill, Afrobeats, and Hip-Hop that connects continents, cultures, and emerging talents. With a tracklist featuring some of Ghana’s hottest rising stars and key players from Germany’s music scene, Bridges marks a new chapter in Stallion’s career—both as a sonic innovator and as a bridge between African and European music.

From Afrodrill Pioneer to Global Producer

Ghanaian Stallion, widely recognized for his role in shaping Afrodrill, first gained international recognition for producing First Sermon and Second Sermon by Black Sherif, tracks that propelled the Ghanaian rapper to global fame and attracted the attention of Burna Boy. Having worked with stars like Patrice, Peter Fox, and Megaloh, Stallion has built a reputation for crafting unique soundscapes that blend UK drill, Ghanaian highlife, ‘90s hip-hop energy, and futuristic Afrobeats.

A Star-Studded Collaborative Album

Bridges is more than an album—it’s a statement. It brings together some of Ghana’s most exciting new voices, including Kwame Yesu, Reggie, O’Kenneth, Kweku Flick, G-West, and Arathejay, alongside German artists Patrice, Albi X, Anny, Willy Will, Chima Ede, and members of BSMG.

The album’s first single, “Pelé” feat. Albi X, is a hard-hitting Afrodrill anthem, while tracks like “Bus Station” and “1:0” showcase Stallion’s evolving Afrobeats production style. The album also ventures into experimental territory with “Qoqoqo” feat. Awa Khiwe, blending African rap with a futuristic twist.

Beyond Borders: A Movement, Not Just Music

With Bridges, Ghanaian Stallion is not just pushing sonic boundaries—he’s creating a movement. By mentoring new talents and curating authentic collaborations, he is ensuring that Ghana’s new wave of artists is heard on a global stage. The project is deeply personal, as Stallion has always lived between Germany and Ghana, using music as a bridge between his two worlds.With its infectious energy, bold collaborations, and fresh perspective, Bridges is set to be one of the most influential African hip-hop releases of the year.

ABOUT GHANAIAN STALLION
Alan Mensah grew up in Berlin as the son of a German mother and a Ghanaian father. As a teenager, he spent several years in school in Ghana before moving to Freiburg to live with his grandparents, where he started DJing and making beats. Eventually, as a young adult, he returned to Berlin. The one constant throughout all these moves? Music. It acted as a bridge between the
different phases of his life. In Berlin, it was his parents’ record collection and the African musicians who often stayed with them while passing through. In Ghana, it was the mixtape full of the latest hip-hop from New York that a friend of a friend handed him. And finally, back in Germany, it was his own music, his own identity: Ghanaian Stallion. In Germany, Ghanaian Stallion has worked with superstars like Patrice and Peter Fox, underground kings like Chima Ede and Amewu, and, of course, his longtime collaborator Megaloh. Together, they’ve created some of the most defining, musical, and emotional moments
in German rap, from albums like Endlich Unendlich and Regenmacher to BSMG, their joint project with Musa. In 2016, this Black Super Men Group traveled to Uganda for a project, where Stallion’s mobile studio became the creative hub of the trip. Songs were recorded with various artists, but more importantly, a feeling emerged—an idea, a belief in his power as a bridge-builder. Bridges between continents, of course. But also bridges between genres and cultures. Between his industry experience and the raw, boundless creativity that thrives in West Africa—especially in Accra, where everything just feels a little warmer, more inspiring, more
