Joe Mettle – Okokroko 2.0 (ft. Kweku Teye)

Joe Mettle Okokroko 2.0, featuring Kweku Teye, is out now as the newest single from the Ghanaian gospel star. The official audio went up on his YouTube channel on 12 November 2026.

The song comes from The River Vol. 1, the album Joe Mettle has been building towards in recent months. Okokroko 2.0 is a full-hearted praise record, and it carries on in the worship tradition that fans have come to expect from him.

The message is plain and joyful. Okokroko 2.0 is another extended expression of praise, with declarations of God’s greatness and an invitation to celebrate Him. It is music made for the church, but also for the home, the car and the morning commute.

Kweku Teye joins Joe Mettle on the record. The pairing puts two gospel voices on one song, and the result is a call-and-response energy that suits a track built around shared thanksgiving. For listeners who like their worship with room to sing along, this is the kind of song that invites the whole congregation in.

Fans who followed the build-up to the project will remember that we covered the announcement of the album earlier. You can read how it was introduced in our report on Joe Mettle’s new live album The River Vol. 1. Okokroko 2.0 now gives listeners a first-hand taste of what that project holds.

This is not the first time Joe Mettle has been in the release cycle this year. In June 2026 he shared the official audio for Faithful, and on 10 July 2026 he followed it with the official video. Okokroko 2.0 arrives a few months after that and keeps his output steady through the second half of the year.

Joseph Oscar Nii Armah Mettle, known professionally as Joe Mettle, is a Ghanaian gospel musician and songwriter. On 8 April 2017 he became the first Ghanaian gospel musician to win the Artiste of the Year award at the Ghana Music Awards. That win placed a gospel act at the top of a field that usually leans towards Highlife, Hiplife and Afrobeats, and it changed how many people in the industry saw the genre.

He has won many awards in Ghana and beyond. He has also performed on international stages alongside gospel artistes such as Donnie McClurkin, Nathaniel Bassey, Ntokozo Mbambo and Michael Stuckey.

Joe is the eldest of six children, born to Florence Addo and Emmanuel Mettle. He grew up in Accra, attended Korle Gonno 3 Junior High School and is an alumnus of Accra Academy. He describes himself as a marketer by profession and a worshipper by calling, and that second part is easy to hear in his records. He is married to Selassie Mettle.

Kweku Teye’s presence on Okokroko 2.0 adds another layer for gospel followers in Ghana, who often enjoy seeing artistes share a song rather than compete for the spotlight. A collaboration like this one tends to travel well through church groups, choirs and WhatsApp status updates, which is exactly where gospel music finds its largest audience.
