A good product

I just read here that Praye Tenten has left Praye, my favourite hiplife group. Leads me to reflect on the amazing dominance of hiplife on the local music scene. It wasn't that long ago that local music was frowned on in certain circles in Ghana. These days, our leading lights such as Sarkodie are genuine stars, putting out music that everyone enjoys and relates to. Very nice!

I'll be most disappointed if Sarkodie's "U Go Kill Me" doesn't win Song of the Year at the next Ghana Music Awards, if only for the Azonto dance that it's made popular.
