History was made in Ghana last Wednesday as the country begins its oil exploration in commercial quantities in a ceremony dubbed ‘Ghana Oil Launch’, it was the same day medical doctor Nii Lante Blankson chose to launch his maiden album ‘Love & Revolution’.
The name Nii Lante Blankson might not be imprinted in people’s mind but his track ‘Lagos To Vienna’ is receiving rotation both on radio and TV. Even before that, he had done a couple of songs including the popular ‘Bo Noo’, which is currently being enjoyed on radio.
That track came up when the Ghana Music Industry was not in any good form. This forced him to only release it on radio. It was a song that talks about love. The medical doctor who has a showbiz name as KNii Lante was inspired by his experiences in life to write his songs for the current album.
The album also has songs he calls ‘militant’. He does not only sing about love. He believes one of the greatest injustices on the Africa continent is greedy and throws light on that too.
The medical doctor turned musician is a father of 3 is called Nii Lante Blankson when he is in the hospital and KNii Lante, when he is on stage to perform.

Good for him. Hope he gets far.
Yeah, i know this chap. Well I didn’t know he is a doc. His tune ‘Boo Noo’ is one of my favourite of all time. He worked with Black Rasta in the hit song Barack obama, Michael Dwamena”s Ngozi and kwesi Pee in money cant buy love
I know this Doc, he was a student of mine at GIS. He was an excellent student. I was not surprise when i heard he was a doctor. He was a very funny and humours guy, all loved by all his peers. Anything he does will be sucessful. Good luck and sucess to you Nii Lante
i love the song “so amazing”, as flowers need rain in fact the production company is doing well. you have a perfect album and i know you could be frustrated with whether or not the attitude of Ghanaian radio d.j’s will kill the song’s or keep i alive. don’t worry they would come around.
