Omah Lay Joins Forces with bees & honey, BEAM & Gyptian for ‘As We Get High’

Nigeria’s Omah Lay continues to expand his sonic palette beyond borders with “As We Get High,” a intoxicating new collaboration that brings together creative collective bees & honey, Jamaican-American talent BEAM, and reggae-dancehall legend Gyptian. The track represents a masterclass in genre-blending, seamlessly weaving Afro-fusion, contemporary dancehall, and R&B into a singular, hypnotic experience that transcends geographical boundaries.

Sonically, “As We Get High” operates in a dreamy, atmospheric space where slow-burning Afro-R&B meets ambient dancehall rhythms anchored by deep, pulsating bass. The production’s deliberate spaciousness allows each artist room to breathe while maintaining a cohesive late-night vibe. Omah Lay opens with his signature melancholic falsetto—that vulnerable, emotion-drenched delivery that’s earned him recognition across the globe. BEAM follows with contemporary hip-hop-infused dancehall energy, injecting a modern edge into the track’s midsection. Gyptian closes the circle with his unmistakable, textured reggae vocals, adding veteran soul and depth to the collaboration.

Thematically, the song explores escapism and connection, capturing those fleeting moments of peace and intimacy that cut through life’s constant noise. It’s music designed for sunset sessions and low-lit spaces, where vibes matter more than words. The chemistry between Lagos, Kingston, and Miami—represented through these four artists—feels organic rather than forced, proving that authentic musical connection knows no borders. “As We Get High” isn’t just a collaboration; it’s a statement on the global language of tropical sounds and modern Black music.
