Berlin x London producer and DJ collective Bees & Honey pull together one of the most geographically diverse lineups of 2026 on “As We Get High,” featuring Omah Lay, Jamaican reggae-dancehall hitmaker Gyptian, and versatile artist and producer Beam.
The collaboration works because each artist genuinely belongs on it. Omah Lay brings his smooth Afro-fusion warmth and vocal fluidity – the same quality that made records like “Soso” travel globally without losing their soul. Gyptian adds the Jamaican dancehall DNA that gives “As We Get High” its rhythmic swagger. Beam then rounds out the lineup with a versatility that ties the different sonic worlds together without forcing them to sound identical. So the record flows rather than switches.
Bees & Honey’s TikTok community of 266,000 followers also got the first preview of this record before it officially dropped – and that audience responded immediately. Because a collective that builds its fanbase on the platform before a release even lands knows exactly what triggers that specific algorithm. So “As We Get High” arrived with traction already built in.
The Afrobeats and dancehall fusion has always carried commercial potential across West Africa, the UK, the Caribbean diaspora, and beyond. But it only works when the blend feels organic rather than engineered for crossover impact. Here it does – the laid-back groove and melodic warmth keep the atmosphere consistent across all three performances.
For listeners who enjoy records that bridge continents without the seams showing, “As We Get High” delivers that experience cleanly.
