Goodgirl LA – Jeje
In this life, people will talk regardless of what you decide to do with your life but amidst the hate, bad talks and negativity, you need to stand for what you believe, you need to be unstoppable and work towards whatever goal you’ve set for yourself. This is the affirmation Goodgirl LA brings to us in her new song “Jeje”.

Ada Ehi feature Sinach – Fix My Eyes On You
We are taking you to church this week with Ada’s song “fix my eyes on you” which features Sinach. In times like this, our strength can never be enough, we may fail at some point so all we have to do is fix our eyes on God, put our hope in him and ask that his will be done.
Chief Kellz – Sincity
Chief Kellz is back with another drill banger he calls “sincity”, the 3minutes 27seconds of pure energy and sweaty rage constantly reminds us that he is here with his people to turn the city upside down which he terms the sin city if only Accra is not already damaged as it is. Let’s enjoy the experience as he brings a fresh vibe to it. God Bless the Trap.
Gyakie – Nana Nyame
Gyakie’s “Nana Nyame” is a song of hope, a plea and a cry out to God, there are times when we find ourselves doing so many things in and out of power to survive, we try so hard to do things on our own that’s fine but it’s also fine to take a break, give thanks and ask God for direction, our strength may fail but God’s own never fails. The Kuvie produced song can be perfect for morning worship.
Bra Koffy – Pray For Me
We all in a way or the other have faced little problems in life. Bra Koffy made this piece of music to tell you to just pray for the people around you, you never know what people are going through in relation with their career and other things, so the least you can do is just pray and support them.
Kelvin Black featuring A.rtem – Emotions
The best and beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart and expressed through emotions. Kelvin Black expresses all his feelings in his new song “Emotions”.

Juma Mufasa – Tonite
Something’s gonna happen tonight, anything can happen tonight so what are you going to do? It’s hard to say because we are all locked down for our own safety and there’s really nowhere to go but Juma Mafasa still believes something is going to happen in his new single “Tonite”.

Smooth flow, hope you like it.
Tenkorang – Masakra
Staying with one girl in a relationship shouldn’t be a difficult thing but it seems so difficult for Tenkorang, so he’s decided to pray to God to help him stick to one girl hence the title of his new song “masakra” which translates to I have repented in Ghanaian language.
Gibrilville – Glass Ceiling
Mandatory quarantine sucks and Gibrilville wants to give Hip-Hop heads something to feast on while we globally put in efforts to flatten the curve. Laid over a classic Hip-Hop beat; plaudits to Kwabena Jones alias Bosco, ‘Glass Ceiling’ boasts of two verses, amidst loads of great sonic energy. Veteran rapper, Kwaw Kese sets the lyrical tone with his signature style before Gibrilville takes centre stage and wraps things up. The act ticks all the boxes in terms of delivery, style and wordplay as expected from a rapper of his skill set.
Dj Lord – Lockdown
Lockdown by Dj Lord coincidental to current happenings was scheduled to be released two years ago but it looks like destiny had bigger plans for it, even though it really has nothing to do with the current lockdown issues the song is expected to make waves all over because the mid-tempo song has lyrics we can relate to one way or the other. The song features Kojo Cue and Vacs.
Lvin Red – Class Acts
Lvin Red delivers a new sound titled ‘Class Acts’ featuring Fricky, Boss Bouncy, Kobby G, Kay-Ara and NLMGNM on a Hip-Hop instrumental by ace producer, NLMGNM as he prepares to release his debut album ”Faith, Hope and Love” which is to hit stores and streaming services worldwide later this month. Class Act/s as defined by Oxford is a person or thing displaying impressive and stylish excellence and these artists/rappers delivered nothing short of this definition. From tightly knit bars to multi-syllabic rhyme schemes, metaphors and punchlines, this record is very reminiscent of what rap music used to be back in the day.

Tolu Rufai – ENTASIS
Tolu Rufai is a multidisciplinary artist with a core background in Architecture. ENTASIS is his first real offering to the art form that raised and nurtured him into who he is today. The project is a fusion of sounds that pay homage to the artists that paved the way before him. Artist such as James Blake, Sango, Shlohmo and Kanye West instilled in him form a very young age the notion of using the voice as the most powerful musical instrument in a musical ensemble. On this project, he explores these ideas in different forms and ways from sampling Vocals from old soul singers like Nina Simone and Mahalia Jackson, to manipulating his own voice to sound otherworldly to collaborating with Boyewa. The project seeks to evoke a spectrum of emotions of the human experience ranging from love, heartbreak, rage, empathy, beauty, ecstasy and nostalgia. With the lyrical content of the project being sparse at best, he encourages the listener to fill in the music with their own lyrics, leaving it up to their own interpretation. He hopes to help the listeners alleviate their burdens and allow them to feel more in tune with themselves and their emotions upon listening to the project.
