The Ghanaian-Danish artiste, producer, and songwriter is currently based between London and Copenhagen, where he continues to build an impressive international profile.
Born into music, Carllo Yaboy is the son of legendary Ghanaian keyboardist Kwame Yeboah, renowned for his work with global music icon Craig David.

His rising profile was further cemented by appearances on national television in Denmark, including Good Morning Denmark, signalling his growing mainstream recognition.
Musically Carllo Yaboy’s recent releases “Force Me to Make You Cry,” “Die for You,” and “Dance (Ayajo)” highlight his impressive range.
From emotional, heartfelt narratives to bold, dancefloor-ready anthems, his sound effortlessly crosses genres and borders. He blends afrobeats, amapiano, R&B, and Scandinavian pop into a distinctive global sound rich in groove, emotion, and storytelling.
