In a recent interview on 3Music's Culture Daily show, singer AraTheJay shared how he made his breakthrough in the Ghanaian music industry.

He said:

"It is always in my mind because I saw the number on my phone. I was in class at Ghana Communication Technology University when I saw that my song, Sankofa had gotten 250k streams on Apple Music. I later saw King Promise and others vibing to the song. I could not even eat that day."

AraTheJay said that King Promise recorded a video of himself jamming to the song and later called him to give a positive review and express his interest in collaborating on the remix version.

"I was not expecting anything after releasing the song. It was all about its message until I saw the numbers and King Promise's video. King Promise recorded a video of himself singing the song and called to tell me he liked the song and that I should come around. He came to record his verse in the studio with Guiltybeatz, Killbeatz and Prince Dovlo. It was all God's blessings."
