Sefa and Stonebwoy turn the friend-zone into a hit with “Busy Body”
Ghanaian Afro-pop singer Sefa has returned with a playful new single, “Busy Body”, enlisting dancehall heavyweight Stonebwoy for a collaboration that taps into the humour and tensions of modern-day relationships.
The upbeat track blends Afropop melodies with dancehall flair, weaving a light-hearted but pointed narrative around the so-called “friend-zone” — a scenario many young listeners will recognise. At the heart of the song is a familiar contradiction: one party insists the relationship is strictly platonic, yet continues to expect the attention, favours and gifts typically associated with romance.
Driven by an infectious rhythm and chant-ready hook, “Busy Body” sees Sefa take the lead with witty, conversational lyrics that call out mixed signals without bitterness. Stonebwoy complements her delivery with his trademark cadence and charisma, adding grit and crossover appeal to the record.
In a music landscape where love songs often lean towards heartbreak or grand declarations, “Busy Body” opts instead for satire. The track captures the everyday realities of dating culture among young people, where blurred lines between friendship and romance frequently spark confusion and debate.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the single, Sefa said: “This song is just real life. Almost everyone has experienced this situation before — where someone says you’re just a friend but still wants boyfriend benefits. We wanted to make it fun, honest and something people can laugh about and relate to.”
The chemistry between the two artistes is central to the song’s appeal. Sefa’s melodic control and playful tone contrast effectively with Stonebwoy’s confident, rhythm-driven flow, creating a balanced exchange that keeps the energy buoyant throughout.
Industry observers say the collaboration is likely to strengthen Sefa’s growing foothold in Ghana’s competitive Afrobeats space, while reinforcing Stonebwoy’s reputation for versatility beyond core dancehall. With its danceable production and relatable storyline, “Busy Body” is already gaining traction on streaming platforms and generating conversation online.
The single is available on major digital streaming services, including Audiomack, Apple Music, Boomplay, Spotify and YouTube - https://onerpm.link/SefaBB .
