OMAH LAY Releases 'Canada Breeze' Video

10-12-2026

(Warner) In the midst of a sonic, artistic, and personal renaissance, GRAMMY-nominated Afro-fusion star OMAH LAY further magnifies his dynamic vision with a brand new music video for the recent fan favorite "CANADA BREEZE". The song remains a standout from his acclaimed 2026 full-length LP, CLARITY OF MIND, out now.

This time around, NWSPK lensed the video from behind the camera as director, while OMAH LAY personally served as the creative director. The video evokes the warmth of the track itself with sunset-shaded hues and a vibrantly tripped-out atmosphere. The camera inches closer to OMAH LAY as he performs "CANADA BREEZE" flanked by a troupe of dancers sporting psychedelic face paint. Quick edits follow the rhythm's ebb and flow as he joins and participates in an expertly choreographed routine punctuated by tribal spirit and an otherworldly sense of soul. Ultimately, the video channels the tune's energy on-screen.

CLARITY OF MIND has resonated with both listeners and tastemakers alike. Thus far, the record has reeled in over half-a-billion total streams. Upon release, it crashed the Billboard Top World Albums Chart at #8, registering his first Top 10 debut in the United States. Widespread critical praise from The New York Times, NPR, and Billboard followed. In an extensive profile, The FADER celebrated him as "one of Lagos' finest, handling Afrobeats with care while pushing it into the mainstream."

Arriving on the heels of his breakthrough GRAMMY nomination alongside Davido for "With You," CLARITY OF MIND takes flight as OMAH LAY's first full-length release since Boy Alone (2022), signaling both a sonic expansion and a personal rebirth.

At the center of the album is focus track "I AM," a hypnotic, mantra-like affirmation that blurs the line between confidence and inner chaos. Anchored by repetitive, almost meditative declarations of self-"I am who I am"-the track captures OMAH in raw form: grappling with ego, temptation, success, and the weight of his own thoughts. It's both a flex and a confession, reflecting a mind that is clearer, yet still in constant motion. "I now know what my peace is and I have no need for errors - nothing else can touch me," says the global sensation.

Across the project, OMAH continues to push sonic boundaries. The electro-tinged standout "JULIA" pairs pulsing production with emotional isolation, turning a night out into a moment of quiet loneliness, while "CANADA BREEZE" leans into elevated, almost out-of-body energy- blending spirituality, success, and detachment into a hazy, high-frequency anthem of growth and self-realization.

CLARITY OF MIND expands on the emotional depth that has defined OMAH LAY's rise while embracing new textures, themes, and contradictions. From the seductive detachment of "DON'T LOVE ME" to the spiritual tension of fan-favorite "HOLY GHOST" and the global resonance of "WAIST," the album navigates desire, faith, isolation, and self-discovery with striking honesty.

With nearly three billion global streams and a track record of genre-defining hits, OMAH LAY continues to cement himself as one of the most compelling and progressive voices of his generation-one unafraid to explore the complexities of being human in real time. With CLARITY OF MIND, he's not just telling his story-he's living it, in full view.
