King Promise and Mr Eazi have officially released their long-awaited collaborative single, That Way, marking a bold fusion of Afrobeats and pop nostalgia. The song dropped on February 6, 2026, and serves as the lead single from their upcoming joint album, See What We’ve Done.
Produced by Guiltybeatz and JAE5, the track prominently interpolates the chorus of the Backstreet Boys’ 1999 hit, I Want It That Way. Rather than simply recreating the original, the duo reimagines it through a West African lens, blending highlife influences, smooth Afrofusion melodies, and modern log drum rhythms.
The result is a warm, romantic track that balances familiarity with freshness. Lyrics like “You are my fire, what I desire” echo the original pop anthem while fitting seamlessly into the duo’s signature sound. Music lovers have praised the chemistry between King Promise’s smooth vocals and Mr Eazi’s laid-back delivery, calling the collaboration both nostalgic and forward-thinking.
That Way is the second preview from their joint album, following their earlier release See What We’ve Done. The full project is scheduled for global release on March 11, 2026, and is already generating strong anticipation among fans across Africa and beyond.
The accompanying music video, set in a sleek aviation-themed environment, has surpassed 160,000 views within its first 24 hours on YouTube. With its cross-generational appeal and polished production, That Way is expected to dominate airwaves in Ghana, Nigeria, and other major Afrobeats markets in the coming weeks.
