2. Arathejay: Blending New and Old School
Arathejay is creating his own waves rather than merely riding them. He is providing the younger generation with something new while maintaining a strong Ghanaian heritage through his distinctive style, which blends Afrobeat grooves with Highlife melodies. He has already developed a cult following thanks to his performances at local events in Accra. When he becomes very popular, you will regret not pursuing him sooner.
3. Bhad Mayors: Conversations in the Streets
When it comes to “boys making noise for the right reasons,” this pair is the epitome. Bhad Mayors have a streetwise, exuberant style that makes an impression.
