Gyakie – Damn U Ft. 6lack | Mp3 Download
“Damn U” is the third track on Gyakie‘s debut album, After Midnight, officially released on August 29, 2025. Produced by the talented P.Priime, the song was actually recorded back in 2023 and awaited the right moment to unfold its story. It’s this timing—or divine serendipity—that led Gyakie to connect with 6LACK, whom she initially reached out to simply to express admiration for his work. A year later, his heartfelt verse found its way into the track, and Gyakie vividly recalls hearing it for the first time while in Johannesburg—and being truly mind-blown by its emotional resonance.
Musically, “Damn U” unfolds as a lush blend of Afro-fusion and R&B, perfect for those quiet, reflective nights. Its slow, intimate tempo allows for the lyrics and vocals to breathe, drawing listeners in with warmth and raw feeling. 6LACK’s verse complements Gyakie’s soulful delivery, creating a synergy that transcends borders and styles.
Lyrically, the song is a confession of emotional sacrifice and questioning loyalty—Gyakie asks, “Would you watch us fail or would you watch me burn?” These repeated lines highlight the emotional weight she’s carrying, while deeper moments reveal her vulnerability and willingness to save others before herself. It’s a heartfelt plea wrapped in soulful melodies, and tracks like these cement “Damn U” as one of the most memorable songs on the album.
