During a recent interview on Hitz FM’s Daybreak Hitz, Ghanaian artist Lasmid revealed that his unique musical style is deeply rooted in his appreciation for Muslim and Indian songs.
Speaking with hosts Doreen Avio and Kwame Dadzie in December 2025, the “Friday Night” singer noted that these genres provide a distinct emotional resonance and complex melodic progressions that differ from typical Western or local music.
This influence is particularly visible in his use of microtonal patterns, a hallmark of both Islamic worship and Indian compositions, which he recently showcased in his collaborative verse on Kojo Blak’s track “Balance.”
Lasmid also shed light on his highly spontaneous creative process, explaining that he rarely writes down lyrics before entering a recording session. Instead, he prefers to let the rhythm of a beat guide him, allowing melodies to emerge naturally before layering words on top.
He even noted that some of his most successful musical ideas have come to him in the shower, requiring him to quickly capture them on his phone. This organic approach has fueled his recent string of successes, including the self-assured hit “No Issues” with King Promise, which recently debuted at number ten on the Ghana Music Top 10 Countdown.
His busy end-of-year schedule also features high-energy releases like “Daddy” with Oseikrom Sikanii and the storytelling-driven single “Ghetto,” both of which highlight his artistic evolution.
