Rising Ghanaian-born UK-based artist Asalexys is once again at the center of online music conversations after the cover art for his upcoming EP surfaced online, sparking excitement and speculation among fans. The leaked artwork, shared by blogger GhFrimpzy, has quickly made the rounds on social media, with many already decoding its symbolism while eagerly awaiting the official tracklist and release date.
Born Kendrick Asare and raised in Ghana, Asalexys represents a new wave of African artists reshaping the global soundscape. His move to the UK marked a turning point in his musical journey, allowing him to merge his African roots with contemporary UK influences. This cultural blend has become the backbone of his sound.
Musically, Asalexys sits comfortably at the intersection of Afrobeat, hip-hop, and trap, delivering catchy melodies layered with introspective and sometimes confrontational lyrics.
His growing catalogue includes standout releases like:
• “Troubled Child” EP (2023) – a deeply reflective project that revealed his emotional depth and storytelling ability
• “Bundles” (2024) – a song centered on love, ambition, and the hustle for success
• “ShowDown” (2025) featuring Myztikal – a bold, competitive statement
• “FUK U” (2025) – raw, energetic, and unapologetic
Beyond the studio, Asalexys is celebrated for his high-energy performances, often infused with Ghanaian dance elements and fashion, reinforcing his connection to home even while operating on international stages. He has consistently expressed his desire to inspire young creatives and use his platform for positive change.
In the image, Asalexys stands dressed in an all-black, formal outfit, topped with a red beret, surrounded by a flock of white sheep. The EP title, “Black Sheep,” appears boldly above him, instantly setting the tone.
Visually and symbolically, the artwork suggests:
• Individuality vs conformity – Asalexys positions himself as the “black sheep,” different from the crowd, unafraid to stand alone.
• Rebellion and self-awareness – The red beret often symbolizes resistance and revolution, hinting that this EP may challenge norms, industry expectations, or societal pressure.
• Inner struggle and identity His posture and expression feel introspective, suggesting themes of self-reflection, isolation, growth, and survival.
• Luxury meeting raw truth The formal attire contrasted with the pastoral setting may point to a balance between success and the realities that come with it.
The Parental Advisory label further hints that the EP will be unfiltered, honest, and possibly controversial, aligning with Asalexys’ reputation for saying things as they are.
Although the tracklist and release date remain under wraps, the cover art alone suggests that this EP could be one of Asalexys’ most personal and concept-driven projects yet. Fans are already anticipating themes such as:
• navigating fame and expectations
• being misunderstood
• independence and self-belief
• the cost of choosing your own path
If the visuals are anything to go by, this EP won’t just be about sound it will be about identity, defiance, and growth
With the cover art now circulating online, anticipation around Asalexys’ next EP is at an all-time high. As fans wait for official announcements, one thing is clear: Asalexys is preparing to make a bold statement, and “Black Sheep” may well mark a defining chapter in his evolving career.
All eyes are now on the artist and his team for the next move. Until then, the leaked artwork has done its job it has everyone talking.
