[:en]Burkina Faso rapper Art Melody releases a new single from his upcoming album Zoodo (which translates to friendship) slated for late 2019. “Tôk Tôko,” is produced by his long standing producer Redrum for Tentacule Records. The afro-futuristic track is a wild ride spearheaded by Art Melody’s rough lyrical delivery, on top of Redrum’s reverberating percussion and space-y synthesizers. Check it out below.
Flowking Stone & Kirani Ayat get VGMA nominations.
Madina-based hip hop sensation, Kirani Ayat’s song Guda has been nominated for Best Video of the Year in this year’s Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA). Although, there are equally good videos in this category , the fact that Ayat’s video features rich Ghanaian Northern Culture is a plus that should catapult him to win the award.
On the other hand, Ghanaian rapper, Flowking Stone’s song Blow My Mind featured on his album Gifted II has also been nominated for Hiplife Song of the year. We expected more nominations for Stone unfortunately we got only one and hope to win it.
