XLNC & JahMikal Ignite Consciousness with “Awakened Souls”

In a world clouded by disinformation and spiritual disconnection, Ghanaian reggae luminary XLNC Fiifi Selah is making a thunderous return with a powerful new single: “Awakened Souls.” The track is a bold statement of clarity, resilience, and self-realization.

Born Emmanuel Fiifi Botchway, XLNC is no stranger to Ghana’s music scene. Formerly known as Scoobyselah, he has carved out a legendary career as a broadcast journalist, musician, and member of iconic groups like Sass Squad, Th4 Kwages, and Squadges. With hit songs such as “Serwa,” “Nana Esi,” and “Taxi Driver,” his signature reggae style has long been revered.

Now, after a 14-year hiatus from solo projects, XLNC returns with an evolved message and sound. “Awakened Souls,” produced by Mistaci at MVF Studios on the globally acclaimed Red Hot Riddim, is more than music—it’s a metaphysical movement.

The accompanying music video, directed by Ghana’s own Director Tee, is a visual tapestry of symbolism, spirituality, and artistic expression, perfectly aligning with the track’s soul-searching energy.

But what truly sets this release apart is XLNC’s groundbreaking partnership with JahMikal Entertainment, a US- and Jamaica-based label co-led by Jamaican reggae superstar Mikal Asher. Together, they form a transcontinental force committed to raising consciousness through art and sound.

“This is more than just a record,” says XLNC. “It’s a call to awaken the highest version of ourselves.”

As Mikal Asher prepares to release his own single, “Mustard Seed,” in June, the message is clear: JahMikal Entertainment isn’t just building a brand—it’s building a movement.

“Awakened Souls” is for those who seek truth in a noisy world, who crave alignment in a time of chaos, and who are ready to rise beyond the illusions that cloud modern existence. Whether you’re a longtime fan of XLNC or a newcomer to conscious reggae, this release promises to strike a deep, resonant chord.
