Mr Eazi & Moliy Return With “Comfort,” Blending Banku Music With Afrobeats, Dancehall & R&B

Bongo Review Staff Friday, October 16, 2026

The new single sees the Afropop star revisit his signature sound with a fresh, playful approach, while collaborating with Ghanaian singer Moliy.

Afropop star Mr Eazi has released “Comfort,” a new single and music video featuring Ghanaian singer Moliy, the artist behind the global viral hit “Shake It To The Max.”


Released on October 2, 2026, “Comfort” blends Mr Eazi’s signature Banku Music sound with elements of Afrobeats, dancehall and R&B. Built around a laid-back rhythm and catchy melody, the track creates a relaxed, flirtatious atmosphere while allowing both artists’ vocal styles to complement each other.

The release also marks another collaboration connecting two Ghanaian artists whose music has reached audiences beyond the country’s borders.

Mr Eazi Gives Banku Music a Fresh Direction

For Mr Eazi, “Comfort” represents an updated take on the musical identity he has developed over the years.

Describing the record, he said: “This is an updated version of my signature sound. I am making gyal dem music—sweet, easy, flattering gyal dem music.”

He explained that the intention was to keep the music light, fun and enjoyable while retaining the familiar sound his listeners associate with him.

Banku Music, the style Mr Eazi helped popularise, combines elements of Ghanaian highlife, Nigerian musical influences and Pidgin storytelling. With “Comfort,” he revisits that foundation while incorporating dancehall and R&B textures into a contemporary Afropop production.

The result is a record that prioritises mood, melody and chemistry rather than an overly complicated arrangement.

Moliy Adds Her Own Character to the Record

Moliy brings her vocals to the collaboration, contributing to the track’s playful and flirtatious energy.

Her involvement also connects the release to the growing visibility of Ghanaian female artists in international music conversations. Following the global attention surrounding “Shake It To The Max,” the collaboration places her alongside an established Afropop artist with a catalogue spanning multiple markets.

Rather than presenting the two artists as competing for the spotlight, “Comfort” allows their performances to work together within a shared musical direction.

The track was produced by Ragee, the Nigerian hitmaker associated with records including Davido’s “Unavailable” and Ayra Starr’s “Hot Body” and “Who’s Dat Girl.”

An ’80s-Inspired Visual World

Directed by Ademola Falomo, the music video extends the song’s playful atmosphere through an aesthetic inspired by the 1980s.

The visual draws on telephone hotline commercials, laser-grid graphics, shopping-mall photo studio backdrops and oversized mobile phones. These elements create a retro-futuristic setting that combines nostalgia with a modern African pop sensibility.

The concept gives “Comfort” a distinct visual identity while supporting the easygoing mood of the music.

According to the release information, the song was recorded during Mr Eazi’s stay in London in the summer of 2026. Its sound reflects his current approach to Banku Music: retaining recognisable elements while exploring new energy and influences.

A Busy Period for Mr Eazi

“Comfort” arrives during a productive run of releases for Mr Eazi in 2026.

Earlier in the year, he worked with US-based dancehall producer Dre Skull on a series of releases, including “Lambo” featuring Vybz Kartel, “Hide Your Love” and “Remember That” featuring dancehall legend Cham.

He also released See What We’ve Done, a collaborative album with Ghanaian music star King Promise.

The new single adds another chapter to a career that extends beyond recording and performance. Mr Eazi is also the founder of emPawa Africa, an independent music ecosystem spanning label services, distribution and publishing, with a focus on supporting African musical talent.

What “Comfort” Represents

With “Comfort,” Mr Eazi is not abandoning the sound that helped define his career. Instead, he is revisiting it through a contemporary production style and a collaboration that brings Moliy’s voice into the mix.

The release highlights how established artists can continue to develop a signature sound without losing the musical identity that audiences recognise.

For Moliy, the collaboration provides another opportunity to connect her growing profile with a broader Afropop audience. For Mr Eazi, it reinforces an approach centred on melody, personality and a sound that remains accessible while evolving.

“Comfort” is now available on major streaming platforms.
