Mframa: From ‘Agya Koo Gbengbentus’ To ‘Rob Peter To Pay Paul’!

blank

For whatever reason, Mframa, a Hip Life duo made up of Terry Asare Boamah [Dada Halfco] and Kenneth Osei Owusu [One Pesewa] has been on the quiet.

The duo, who appears jaded in the music fraternity, released their maiden album ‘Fiili Fiili’ in 2007. The title track of the ten songs album which featured Kwabena Kwabena became an instant hit.

Their second album ‘Uneasy’ which had the popular track like ‘Disco’ didn’t enjoy the popularity of their first album. Perhaps, that was the main reason for their sudden pause to reflect.

After Obrafour released his ‘Kaseibo’, a ‘supposed’ diss song to Okyeame Kwame, the duo with A-Plus came out with ‘Konkonsa Radio’ part 1 and 2, funny songs actually to mock the two rappers and also address some social issues.

Their ‘Ghana Lady’ track which didn’t get much publicity was also featured on Appietus’ Compilation. Their next song after that was a song for a movie titled ‘Agya Koo Gbengbentus’ produced and directed by Augustine ‘Idikoko’ Abbey.

The soundtrack has given them a nomination in the 2011 Ghana Movie Awards’

‘Best Music [Original Score]’ alongside Thomas Vanoosting [Ties That Bind], Anti Benny [Somewhere In Africa], Elorm Adablah & Ivan Ayitey [Adams Apple] and Ebenezer Bonsu [Emmanuel].

Sarkodie To Make History On Christmas Day, December 25 At The Dome With ‘Sarkodie Rapperholic – Live In Concert!

blank

Ghana’s current fastest rapper, Sarkodie is set to rewrite and make history on Christmas day, December 25 at the Dome of the Accra International Conference Centre in a mega musical concert dubbed ‘Sarkodie Rapperholic – Live In Concert’.

I beg your pardon but the name Sarkodie now signifies ‘azonto’, a new dance, many believe he originated with his dance banger tune ‘You Go Kill Me’. From now till eternity, the argument will continue unabated as to who is the artiste that initiated the dance but no matter what, the name Sarkodie will continue to be on the lips of many.

He has only an album out, yet he’s done what many of his predecessors only dreams of. On Christmas day, Sarkodie will prove many wrong that, being considered as one of the greats in music is not about how many albums an artiste has to have but it’s about the ability to churn out hits after hits and entertain the patrons whenever one gets the opportunity to do so.

On Sunday, December 25th, Sarkodie will also launch his much awaited second album ‘Rapperholic’. His first album ‘Makye’ released in 2009 had tracks like ‘Baby’, ‘Push’, ‘Borga Borga’ which ruled the country’s music awards by grabbing 8 nominations and scooping 5 awards including the coveted ‘Artiste of the Year’, becoming the first artiste with maiden album to pick that award including the ‘Discovery of the Year’, ‘Album of the Year’, ‘Hip Hop/Hip Life Artiste of the Year’, as well as ‘Best Rapper of the Year’.
