From the moment “In Your Way” begins, you know you’re about to experience something special. The song eases in with delicate, sun-soaked guitar riffs straight from Senegal, setting a dreamy, inviting tone. Then, like a gentle but undeniable tide, the beat creeps in—pulsating Reggaeton rhythms meet Afrobeat’s signature bounce, creating a groove that feels both effortless and electric.
