Ghana🇬🇭is a PowerHouse of Rap,,With a Coined name Hip-Life which is combination of ‘Hip(hop)’ and Highlife (an indigenous Ghanaian owned Genre which Afrobeat was heavily influenced,,inspired,,extracted and generated out of)
When it comes to rap in Africa, Ghana is at a whole different level. Before Afrobeats became a thing, Ghana ran the scene with Hiplife which is a fusion of our traditional highlife melodies and hip-hop. Names like Reggie Rockstone, Obrafour, Lord Kenya, Tic-tac (he had the biggest Ghana-Naija collabo called "fe fe ne fe), Tinny, Edem, Sarkodie and a whole lot of tough guys. If you actually tap into the deeper rap ocean in Ghana, you'll be amazed the kind of rap quality you'll hear that you can't compare to anything you're hearing nowadays even from the US. Language barrier is a hard thing here. You are feeling LJ cos you can understand him. There are entire 2-4 hour programs on mainstream radio and TV that are dedicated to the rap culture. Rap music gave birth to Azonto which became a global menace before Ghanaians did a self sabotage. Look for a rapper called EL. He's one of LJs godfathers. Try react to his song called Lyrical Algebar. I'm sure you should be in Ghana some time and feel the culture here. You wouldn't want to leave.
@Don_riskyy The deportation of West African migrants from Nigeria occurred following a January 1983 executive order from President Shehu Shagari, which forced illegal immigrants to leave the country or face arrest. As a result of Shagari's order, over two million migrants were deported, including one million Ghanaian nationals.
“Later they told me to exercise patience but it wasn’t working out so I fired my gym instructor” that line was being studied in a university lecture room
Well actually that bag and that line got a history - when Nigerians at time asked all Gh’s to leave Nigeria- the name of that bag came up when the gh folks mostly used the bag to pack their stuff to leave - the name stuck “Ghana must go”- so its history double triple entendres play there.. LJ is a genius
Ghana must go because in the 80’s Ghanaians living in Nigeria were mass deported to their home country forcing them to leave with what they could carry in their portable plastic bags(now known as Ghana must go)
