The single, titled ‘Free’ captures the spirit of Vida Sunshyne, demonstrating her effortless approach to vocal delivery and flow and reminding newcomers and long time fans alike why Vida is a force of spirit and musical talent.
Recorded at Cool Black Studio in Nungua, Accra, ‘Free’ represents a series of observations and inspirations from Vida’s time spent in Ghana. A moment of reconnection and reclamation for Vida as she travelled to Ghana and returned artistically and personally nourished, ‘Free’ is a spotlight on this time.
“It’s basically a summary of all I’d learned during my time in Ghana, and I felt it was important to share that with the world over a Ssnowbeatz instrumental. It’s about knowing your own power and standing firm, as the free creator beings that we all are. My intent is to empower all who listen to it.” – VIDA SUNSHYNE

The energy that she radiates as a performer has led to a special connection with her fans and with the release of a track like ‘Free’, Vida Sunshyne and her fans alike can share in the rejuvenation and empowerment of her message.
