Kweku Darlington kicks off the year with a bold perspective on moving forward in his latest release, “Every Ex Is Expired.” Dropping in late January 2026, this Highlife-infused anthem serves as the ultimate “breakup mantra,” encouraging listeners to let go of past relationships that no longer serve them and embrace the potential of the future.
Produced by BeatzFada, the track moves with an infectious, rhythmic bounce that perfectly complements its assertive message. Darlington uses the metaphor of an “expiry date” to explain that once a relationship has reached its end, it is time to discard the old to make room for the new. His lyrics are sharp and relatable, blending witty observations with a clear philosophy: “If you don’t lose the wrong, you can never meet the right.”
“Every Ex Is Expired” stands out for its high-energy, unapologetic approach to healing. Unlike his 2024 hit “Grateful To Your Ex,” which took a more appreciative stance, this record is about closure and the “upgrade” to a better season of life. It’s a catchy, vibrant piece of music that solidifies Kweku Darlington’s knack for turning everyday social experiences into melodic street anthems.
