For Immediate Release Rocky Dawuni and Cedella Marley’s Powerful “I Got a Song” The highly anticipated music video for Ghanaian music luminary and four-time GRAMMY nominee Rocky Dawuni’s chart topping new single “I Got a Song,” featuring three-time GRAMMY-winning artist Cedella Marley, is now available for fans worldwide on YouTube’s @RockyDawuniMusic at https://youtu.be/M9N_mDy1UIY after making its exclusive debut on Tuff Gong TV last night in honor of Rita Marley's 79th birthday. "I Got A Song" has resonated deeply since its release on July 18, 2025, through AQUARIAN Records, distributed by Tuff Gong International. A global anthem inspired by the Aboriginal concept of “songlines,” or “dreaming tracks,” which serve as cultural passages between generations, the tune celebrates the power of music to unite and the universal connections we share as human beings.
Directed by emerging creative visionaries Ebenezer Brew (aka Slingshot) and Jolver Cutino, the video’s breathtaking visuals, vibrant imagery and heartfelt storytelling capture the song’s essence. It beautifully complements the powerful sonic tapestry created by Dawuni and Marley, emphasizing the universal themes that the song promotes. Spanning continents, Dawuni was filmed in his native Ghana, highlighting the vibrant landscapes, rich culture, and soul-stirring energy of Africa and Marley was shot in Miami, reflecting her connection to her Jamaican heritage. The result is a seamless fusion of both locations, adding layers of cultural significance to the visual narrative The premiere on Tuff Gong TV, coinciding with Rita Marley’s birthday celebration, served as a tribute to Cedella’s mother, the matriarch of the Marley family. “The video brings the joyful spirit of ‘I Got A Song’ to life, showcasing the beauty and power of music to transcend borders, connect cultures and unite us in celebration of humanity” states Dawuni. “It is a musical bridge between generations, with soul stirring visuals that evoke a sense of triumph, positivity and celebration.” ABOUT ROCKY DAWUNI Rocky Dawuni has risen over the years to become one of Africa’s most influential musical voices.
