BEYOND BOXING EP281 - EDDIE ASAMOAH HEARN

“Sick of Me” is an electrifying Afrobeat anthem where joy becomes resistance and faith becomes power. The track moves with a bright, dance-floor bounce while delivering a spiritual message wrapped in pure swag.

Built around the viral hook “He sick of me — yeah, I know. Too much light — I steal the show,” the song flips negativity into celebration. The devil is “sick” because the love is too strong, the gratitude too loud, the spirit too unshakeable. It’s praise disguised as a party — a joyful rebellion against darkness.

With shimmering harmonies, sharp Afro-fusion percussion, and that signature Mecca Melodies uplift, “Sick of Me” is made for dancers, believers, and anyone who knows their light can’t be dimmed.

Sick of Me

Five years after its initial release, Daniel Haaksman´s „Black Atlantica Edits“ compilation on BBE gets another re-vitalisation. Recently deleted on BBE, the edit of C.K. Mann + Carousel 7’s “Asafo Beesuon” now sees a re-release on Man Recordings.

The original version of „Asafo Beesoun“ is a buoyant highlife classic built on warm guitars and an infectious rhythmic pulse. The song’s lively horn lines give it a celebratory lift that feels instantly energizing. Its call-and-response vocals draw directly from Fante musical traditions, grounding the track in deep cultural roots. At the same time, the clean production and tight band interplay highlight the modern edge C.K. Mann brought to highlife. Carousel 7’s rhythm section locks into a groove that’s impossible not to move to. The song radiates a sunny, communal spirit that makes it timeless. Altogether, it’s a shining example of Mann’s ability to blend tradition and contemporary flair into something irresistibly joyful.

Originally, a 13.30min medley, the Daniel Haaksman edit reduced the track to its essential funk part, perfectly for DJ and club use. With its super low end kick and a mix friendly intro and outro, this highlife classic gets transported into the 21st century making it the must-play track for any Afro oriented set.

Now play it out loud!
