Queen Drie Features KooKusi on TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT, First Single off Latest Project I HOPE THIS HELPS
TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT
Ghanaian-American artiste, queen Drie has released her soulful new single, TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT, featuring Ghanaian rapper KooKusi, as the lead-in to her forthcoming project, I HOPE THIS HELPS. Initially premiered on EVEN and now streaming on major platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, the track, released in July 2025, marks a pivotal moment in her career, which took off in 2020. Drawing from her Ghanaian heritage and Chicago’s dynamic music scene, Queen Drie crafts a distinctive sound blending Afrobeats, Hip-hop, and R&B, resonating with fans across the African diaspora and beyond.

TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT  is a heartfelt Afro-fusion track that delves into themes of love, trust, and emotional healing, set against lush instrumentation and smooth, evocative melodies. Queen Drie’s raw, transparent vocals pair seamlessly with KooKusi’s introspective verses, creating a balanced dialogue that captures the complexities of diasporic love, infused with Ghanaian highlife, contemporary Afrobeats, and R&B lyricism.

The I HOPE THIS HELPS project, expected later in 2025, showcases her versatility, weaving Reggae, Bossa Nova, R&B, Hip-hop, and Soul into a cohesive narrative. Through her music, Queen Drie continues to champion mental health, love, and independence, solidifying her voice as a rising star in the global music scene.
