Here's an article about Ayigbe Edem and today's hiplife rising stars: http://gamelmag.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16288774408668308115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948192178732938883.post-87933518510816575122009-02-02T21:19:00.000+00:002009-02-02T21:19:00.000+00:00Great piece of writing.

The thing is though Reggie's style of delivering the sound [lyrics and tempo] over the beats that made tracks like 'Agoo' and 'plan A' hits in the GH is what I identify hiplife with. All the others that came after him [including the uberclassic 'U si si ye wo ya, na so upe se wosa' :) I forgot who sung it]are just cheap carbon copies of the solidly brilliant original sound. For me Reggie started and ended hiplife; later swithcing over to rap in English. Although I would say he is a better Twi rapper than he is an English one; FACT.[ ] dUke [ ]https://www.blogger.com/profile/01805564414982429331noreply@blogger.com
