Yaw Tog signs publishing deal with West Night Publishing

Ghanaian rapper Yaw Tog (Thorsten Owusu Gyimah), a leading figure in the country’s drill movement, has signed a publishing agreement with West Night Publishing.

Yaw Tog rose to prominence with his breakout single Soree in 2020, featuring O’Kenneth, City Boy, Reggie, and Jay Bahd.

The track became an anthem of Ghana’s Asakaa drill sound and was followed by
the international hit Soree Remix in 2021, featuring Stormzy and Kwesi Arthur.

His growing catalog also includes standout tracks such as Time, Fake Ex, Gold Friends, and Asohhh.

Through this deal, West Night will manage Yaw Tog’s publishing rights, ensuring his compositions are properly administered, collected, and positioned for new opportunities across Africa and globally.

“This is an important step in my journey” said Yaw Tog. “I want my music to carry Ghana’s voice further, and with the right support, I can focus fully on creating and sharing my story.”

Seidu Iddrisu, CEO of West Night Publishing, added: “Yaw Tog represents the new generation of Ghanaian artists shaping global sounds. His authenticity and drive are undeniable, and we’re excited to support his work so that it reaches wider audiences and receives the recognition it deserves.”
