Ghanaian music star Kuami Eugene has released a new single titled Do Better, and it comes with a moving music video that tells a story many can relate to. In the video, Kuami plays a poor young man selling bread by the roadside with his girlfriend. They hustle together, sharing dreams of a better future.
But things take a painful turn. While Kuami is attending to a customer, a flashy young man in a car flaunts his wealth. Tempted, the girlfriend jumps into the car and leaves Kuami behind. He chases after them, heartbroken, but fails to stop her. He breaks down in tears on the street.
Then comes the twist. Kuami signs a major record deal with Clear Road Music Group and rises to fame as a rockstar. His ex-girlfriend, now facing rejection and regret, realizes she made a mistake. In a powerful moment, she attends one of Kuami’s shows, watching him perform with success and confidence—her face full of regret.
The lyrics of Do Better echo the story’s message. Kuami sings, “Cos I can do better than they do for you”, a line he repeats with emotion and pride. He also promises, “I no go disappoint you, you can take all the cash too”, showing his loyalty. And when he says, “Baby only you kotomoshi make I release”, it’s clear he gave his all. The catchy hook, “When she pull up in a Balenciaga ga… Step on the dance floor and do your thing baby”, adds a stylish, upbeat contrast to the heartbreak.
At Jonilar.net, we call Kuami Eugene the rockstar of his generation. Now an independent artist, he continues to push Highlife music to new heights. Do Better is more than just a song—it’s a reminder that patience, loyalty, and self-worth always win in the end.
