For his latest musical effort, Buskapé has unveiled his third single, “Dänk a Mi.” This song serves as a hopeful anthem for those struggling through dark and trying moments, making it a significant release to look forward to. “Dänk a Mi” is the last single that Buskapé will be releasing before his much-anticipated upcoming album.
The song, whose title translates to “Think of Me,” carries a poignant message of hope and solidarity. It acknowledges and normalizes the human experience of feeling down and out, providing comfort to those going through rough patches.
Buskapé, through his lyrics, extends a compassionate hand, reminding listeners that experiencing difficulties and periods of unhappiness is a part of life. In these heartfelt lyrics, he assures listeners that they are not alone during such times, emphasizing that hope remains even when the journey toward recovery or happiness feels overwhelmingly rugged.
The musical composition of “Dänk a Mi” stands out, characterized by a spherical UK Afrobeat by Dannyebtracks, promising to be infectious with its rhythm and captivating melodies. The production quality is pristine; the mixing was expertly handled by producer Webba, who had also managed Buskapé’s previous singles. Oli Bösch, with his acute sense of sound quality, was responsible for the song’s mastering.
Born in Bern in 1989, Buskapé is no newcomer to the music scene. His involvement stretches over a decade, marked by a series of collaborations, mixtapes, and albums. Among his earlier works include collaborative mixtapes with the collective Ds Quartier between 2009 and 2011, two albums as part of a duo with Black Ivory under the name “BIB,” and various solo works including a mixtape, two EPs, and a solo album.
Buskapé is an artist who crafts his work with a deeper intent than simple entertainment. He aims to transport listeners into his world, offering them a temporary respite from their own worries and troubles.
In his art, he captures snapshots of his life and current thoughts, and though his lyrics may sometimes contain lines that might not immediately resonate with all listeners, those who do connect with his words tend to appreciate and celebrate his work profoundly.
One of the striking aspects of Buskapé’s music is his open acknowledgment of his roots and the broad spectrum of influences that he skillfully weaves into his work.
Always striving for peak creativity with each new album, his music, as Buskapé hopes, lands with listeners as a felt experience, reminiscent of Bob Marley’s words: “Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet.”
