Reggie Rockstone expressed his disappointment that the Grammys’ Recording Academy had overlooked the genre that had helped many Ghanaian singers gain prominence at a recent Twitter Spaces that was hosted by Kwame Dadzie and included Reggie Rockstone.

Reggie claims that the Grammys may have omitted the well-liked Hiplife music genre from its freshly established Best African Music category due to a typing error.

“Hiplife is what sparked the revolution and you can also go back and check before the re-emergence of Afrobeats with the ‘s’. And Nigeria knows this. We’ve always parlayed. We are cousins but you can never do without the old lady hiplife. You gotta be joking,” Reggie Rockstone said.

Practically and evidently extending for a decade and more of consistency in the Ghanaian music industry, a very rare attribute on the mainstream spotlight.

For about a decade now, Sarkodie has remained consistent in dropping jams that aren’t only memorable (and often fun to party too), but ones that also stay unapologetically true to his Ghanaian heritage.

Editorial Focus

There cannot be a conversation about the revolution of African music without mentioning Sarkodie, his impact and influence in pushing the sound can’t be overlooked, his impact birthed a new generation of young talents in the African music scene.

However, in the early 2010s, Sarkodie’s smash single ‘U Go Kill Me’ with a well-delivered chorus from E.L (Azonto) created an era of its own in Ghana music and Africa beyond, arguably one of the greatest intra-national hit songs.
