the versatile eNZYM has teamed up with the rap powerhouse Lyrical Joe and the smooth-flowing Taitan for the high-stakes release of “Industress.” Dropping in early February 2026, the track serves as a bold commentary on the current state of the music business, blending street-level hunger with veteran-level precision.
The song is a hard-hitting, percussive Hip-Hop record that leans into the “battle-ready” energy of the Ghanaian rap scene. While eNZYM has spent much of the past year experimenting with different genres, “Industress” is a deliberate return to the bars. The lyrics tackle the pressure, politics, and “stress” of the industry, with each artist delivering a distinct perspective on how to survive and thrive amidst the noise. It is a sharp, technical piece that reflects their roles as guardians of the lyricism, speaking directly to the “heads” who demand substance over empty hype.
Musically, the track features a dark, driving bassline and a crisp, boom-bap influenced rhythm that provides the perfect canvas for their rapid-fire deliveries. eNZYM sets the tone with a commanding presence, while Taitan adds a layer of melodic grit, and Lyrical Joe closes it out with the surgical wordplay that has made him a household name across Africa. By releasing this collaboration, they have effectively raised the bar for 2026—proving that when the industry gets stressful, the best response is a lyrical masterclass.
