King Promise returns to link up with Nigerian singer and producer Young Jonn for the “Terminator Remix” via 5K Records. Following the release of the original last month that’s been flying all over the world with 20M streams to date and an impressive hatrick of Top 5 Shazam in Ghana, Top 10 in Nigeria and Top 100 (#76) worldwide, this latest summer slow jam lush with an infectious afrobeats percussion inflected with harmonic vocal layers is given a fresh twist with the instantly recognisable and clever wordplay of Young Jonn.
Speaking on the track King Promise says: “This song is the story of my life, it talks about how i’ve survived, and speaks on how i’ve thrived, this song is special to me.”

Last year, King Promise gave the world what they had been waiting for, his latest project 5 Star via 5K Records. A highly anticipated first album since his 2019 LP As Promised (which saw him share tracks with Raye, Wizkid and claim Ghana’s most streamed album of all time), 5 Star was exactly that, pure excellence and the highest standard possible across 14 tracks.
His best project yet, King Promise lived up to his reputation as Ghana’s cultural connector throughout the diaspora globally with tracks from Headie One and WSTRN (UK), Frenna (Amsterdam), Chance The Rapper and Vic Mensa (USA), Omah Lay and Patoranking (Nigeria) and Bisa Kdei (Ghana).
King Promise’s mellow yet danceable blend of afrobeats, highlife, indie, R&B and more on “Slow Down”, “Bad ‘N’ Rude ft. WSTRN”, “Choplife ft. Patronaking”, “Ring My Line ft Headie One” and “Ginger” caught the attention of key tastemakers including The Face, i-D, The Independent, Highsnobiety, Loud & Quiet, DJ Target and more. Since the albums release 5 Star has garnered over 36M streams across Spotify and Apple Music alone and saw King Promise embark on his world tour in the US with some incredible guest appearances by Chance The Rapper and Vic Mensa to perform “Run To You” live in Chicago, as well as Mayorkun to perform “Sugarcane” at the Atlanta show.
