British-Ghanaian producer Juls is making some of the sunniest afrobeats around right now. Building on a longtime partnership with Mr. Eazi, this year he’s teamed up with Maleek Berry, L.A.X., and Kojo Funds on waist-winding tracks (and showcased his ear for breezy party-starters in a FADER Mix). Today he shares a witty animated video for the Burna Boy-featuring “Gwarn,” which is a slightly more chilled-out take on his usual sound, interpolating a fun “pussy specialist” hook from viral Jamaican artist Gully Bop.

Over email, Juls explained more about the new video to The FADER: “I had fun working with my guy Poka [director] on this visual. I really love cartoons and I wanted to switch it up a little and add some sexy vibes to animation. ‘Gwarn’ is one of my favourite records this year, and I hope everyone enjoys the video as much as I do!”
