Ghanaian spoken word artiste Barima Yoofi has unveiled his highly anticipated sophomore EP,I WISH WE KNEW, a deeply reflective body of work that continues his tradition of using poetry as a tool for introspection, social commentary and transformation.


Known for his fearless, free-spirited approach to storytelling, Barima Yoofi has built a reputation for tackling complex societal issues through art. Over the years, he has used spoken word not only as a form of expression but also as a medium for provoking thought, inspiring change and amplifying conversations that matter.





At a time when digital spaces are saturated with content that often prioritizes volume over value, I WISH WE KNEW arrives as a refreshing and purposeful offering. The project invites listeners into the poet’s world, drawing from lived experiences, personal reflections and hard-earned lessons to create a deeply relatable listening experience.


Across the EP, Barima Yoofi navigates themes of self-discovery, identity, mental health, purpose and personal growth. Each piece is carefully crafted to spark introspection while encouraging audiences to confront difficult questions about themselves and the world around them.


The project’s strength lies not only in its lyrical depth but also in its ability to connect with listeners on a human level. Through compelling narratives and poignant observations, I WISH WE KNEW serves as both a mirror and a guide, offering moments of reflection, healing and hope.


As listeners have come to expect from the Fortified Hill Global artiste, Barima Yoofi masterfully blends personal storytelling with broader social realities, creating a body of work that feels both intimate and universally relevant. More than a collection of spoken word performances, the EP is an invitation to look beneath the surface and discover pieces of oneself within its messages.


With I WISH WE KNEW, Barima Yoofi once again demonstrates the transformative power of art. The project stands as a reminder that healing often begins with understanding and that some of life’s most important lessons emerge through reflection and honest conversations.


I WISH WE KNEW is now available on major streaming platforms.
