Ugandan dancehall artist Beenie Gunter wraps his I Loved You EP with “Talk Is Cheap,” a confident finale released July 28, 2026. The track flips the emotional weight of the earlier songs into something lighter and more defiant. It closes the project on a note that feels earned rather than forced.
The song blends ragga rhythms with the kind of bouncing production Beenie Gunter has leaned into throughout his career. His vocal delivery carries that same badman energy fans heard on earlier hits like “Pon Mi” and “Olina Work.” Unlike the softer moments earlier in the EP, this one pushes forward with infectious energy and a clear message about actions mattering more than words.
Beenie Gunter, born Baguma Crescent, has built a catalogue that moves between afro dancehall and reggae influences. He runs his own Guntalk City label while also working under Talent Africa. His 2019 album No Fear and the more recent New School Tape show an artist comfortable experimenting across moods and tempos. He has shared stages with Chris Martin and D-Major.
The production on “Talk Is Cheap” keeps things tight, with layered percussion and a tempo that refuses to let up. Beenie Gunter’s vocal sits high in the mix, cutting through with clarity and attitude. The contrast between this track and the vulnerability elsewhere on the EP gives the project a satisfying arc.
