Ghanaian musician, rapper and record producer Kwame Ametepee Tsikata, known professionally as M.anifest, says rap music in the Ghanaian music industry has a promising future and has the potential to shatter down barriers and take the world by storm.
Young rap musicians, in his opinion, have demonstrated extraordinary talent that can set the tone for action.
In his opinion, all that was needed for them to become unbeatable competitors who will confront the rest of the globe was the maximum amount of support and excitement, both of which were lacking in the Ghanaian music industry.
“Are there rappers that are coming up? Definitely, and some of them are scary good. I think the new era of rappers are going to be better than us because they have interacted with the globe in a different way.
“And also, just as we have been fortunate to build off the shoulders of the Obrafours and the likes, I think there is going to be a new crop of rappers who are going to be out of this world. I mean, look at Black Sherif, are you kidding? That is a rapper with a melody, and they are taking it to the next level,” M.anifest told Graphic Showbiz in an interview
