Kojoson’s TOXIC FREEDOM EP: A Raw And Reflective Debut

Kojoson steps boldly into the spotlight with his debut EP, TOXIC FREEDOM, a six-track project that blends Afro-fusion with a deeply personal narrative. Hailing from Accra, Ghana, and now based in the U.S., Kojoson uses his music as a canvas to paint stories of independence, loss, and emotional complexity.

The EP’s title, TOXIC FREEDOM, hints at its central theme – the bittersweet nature of freedom. While independence can be empowering, Kojoson explores how it can also become burdensome, or even isolating, when it overwhelms those around us. It’s a fascinating lens through which he views his life experiences, and the EP’s tracks follow suit with a diverse mix of upbeat and contemplative sounds.

One of the highlights is “AYO”, a beautiful tribute to Kojoson’s younger sister, who tragically passed away. The track channels raw emotion, with Kojoson’s lyrics addressing not just his personal grief but also wider societal issues. It’s a song that lingers long after it ends, a true testament to his storytelling ability.

Musically, TOXIC FREEDOM is as unpredictable as its themes. Kojoson doesn’t stick to one formula – instead, he fluidly combines Afrobeat, electronic, and Western influences, creating a dynamic and experimental sound that feels refreshingly original. The EP’s eclectic nature keeps you on your toes, and that’s exactly what makes it such an engaging listen.

For anyone seeking music that offers more than just catchy beats, TOXIC FREEDOM delivers depth, heart, and a glimpse into the mind of an artist who’s only just beginning his journey. Available now on all major streaming platforms, it’s an EP you won’t want to miss. Hit play below...
