Gona Boy
Ghanaian alternative sensation Gonaboy has released his highly anticipated 8-track EP, MUNIRU a powerful and introspective body of work that chronicles the struggles, evolution, and inner awakening of a young man determined to break free from society’s limitations.

Described by Gonaboy as a “redefining moment” in both his artistry and personal journey, MUNIRU symbolizes the transition from restriction into self-liberation. He illustrates this transformation through the metaphor of “a young creature growing inside a small box” once comfort becomes confinement, escape becomes the only path to survival and identity.



The EP delves deep into the realities facing today’s youth, touching on themes of ambition, temptation, love, family, fast living, and the pursuit of purpose. With raw storytelling and vivid emotion, Gonaboy mirrors the inner conversations of a generation fighting to rise above fear and uncertainty.

Fusing soulful undertones with afro-fusion rhythms and his signature alternative sound, Muniru offers a compelling sonic experience reflective, rebellious, and resonant. Each track stands as a chapter in a transformative journey, inviting listeners to examine their own discomfort, desires, and destiny.

“These records give me the feeling of growth through discomfort,” Gonaboy shares. “They reflect where I’ve been, where I am, and where I’m headed. This EP is about understanding yourself in the midst of chaos about breaking the box you were kept in.”

MUNIRU marks a defining chapter in Gonaboy’s rise as one of Ghana’s most soulful and boundary-pushing voices. Through vulnerability and creative boldness, he continues to cement his place in Africa’s thriving alternative music space.
