Ethiopian music lovers are already hitting repeat on the latest from Buze Man (Buzayehu Kifle), whose new music video for the single,"Gelilaye," has just landed. If you were looking for a fresh, soulful sound with that signature Ethiopian flavor, this is it.

 
"Gelilaye" is more than just a catchy tune it’s a beautifully layered blend of modern rhythm and traditional instrumentation that feels both familiar and excitingly new. The track itself is an emotional journey, with Buze Man's distinctive vocals carrying a story of heartfelt longing and perhaps a little bit of romantic drama (as any good song should!). It's the kind of music that makes you want to get up and move, but also stop and appreciate the lyrics.

 
The accompanying video is equally captivating. Moving away from the over the top, heavily produced clips we sometimes see, "Gelilaye" offers a sleek, aesthetically pleasing visual experience. It’s a stylish showcase of Ethiopian urban cool, with clean shots and choreography that perfectly matches the song's energy. It highlights how contemporary Ethiopian artists are effortlessly bridging local culture with global production quality.

 
The early buzz suggests this is a strong contender for the season’s biggest hit, with fans quickly taking to social media to share their favorite lines and beats.
