In his most recent song, Caly Grande explores important themes like freedom, self-awareness, and mental health while fusing hip-hop and reggae.
With an underlying roughness in his singing that complements the song's jumpy beat and topic, Caly Grande delivers a terrific performance on "Racks and Paces" that readily pierces listeners' hearts and ears.
The song's opening flow, performed by 360 Musical Artist, fits in wonderfully with the one-tap reggae instrumentals. For the next minute or so, the artist mostly concentrates on creating the "mula" and a brief prayer that is repeated later in the song.
Caly Grande uses a brief flashback to the independence movement led by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana's first president, to highlight the similarities between the past and present. The vocalist draws attention to the stark contrast between leadership then and now.
"Racks and Paces," like his debut effort "Press Play" EP, which was released last year, is an inspiration and a distinct vibration that defies restrictive and inflexible creative processes.
According to Caly Grande, he was inspired to write his own unique version of the song, which depicts his own experience, after hearing another artist's rendition.
In an exclusive conversation with Amplify Ghana, Caly Grande revealed more about the inspiration for his latest album, saying that he hoped it would make listeners smile and perhaps even feel liberated.

He counseled listeners to focus especially on the statement, "In this life you gotta free your mind and do your most best, free the pressure, no more trauma, in this life you do you," when it came to mental health.
