Stammerer to Virtuoso Rapper – The Unparalleled Odyssey of Rappersania
“I like to write about the society and its issues, so religion is not an exception. I’ll talk about it if I think there is the need for that”…. RappErSaniA

Finding Rappersania
Sometimes I struggle to pick a genre of music that I can say is swell, not because I am confused but because I came to the realization that no matter the genre, an artistic person’s ability to manipulate the rhythms with lyrics that exude superiority on all facets of producing music is what amounts to the eclectic feel that gives the swell notion.
As such, my constant quest to hear new material that will not just move my feet but set my mind on a spiralling journey in the savanna led me to a young and energetic man who is out to douce the minds of those enslaved by trends and trash music.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you RappErSaniA, the young man who went from being a stammerer to an amazing rapper.
Who is Rappersania?
A Gonja, born in Tamale on the 3rd of December 1992, Mumuni Mohammed Nazir now known by the stage name RappErSaniA spent almost all his life in in the Northern region where he went to Kalpohin Junior High School and eventually became the senior school prefect.
“Even though I was born a stammerer, I was determined to improve on my speaking ability because it sometimes took me several minutes to express myself with just a sentence. So, becoming the senior school prefect was a perfect situation that I could use to improve my speech.” He spoke.
Upon completing Junior high school he gained admission at the Tamale Senior High School to study general arts. This is where his love for rap as a teenager took a pivotal position in his life.
Growing up in a neighbourhood where Hip Hop had taken centre stage, it was regular to find youngsters slug it out in a couple of verses, and as the guy who represented his school in almost every rap competition and won, the urge to further prove superiority in the game amongst his peers pushed him to dig up the true meaning of hip-hop by paying closer attention to A-list hip-hop acts like Nas, and watching pro-hip hop videos, movies and subsequently choosing Nas as a Number one inspiration both in lyrics and his commitment to keeping hip-hop sane.
Honing the craft – Rappersania
Knowing the importance attached to the genre, he took to a regular routine of practicing, writing and re-writing his lyrics till he had what he refers to as “Flawless Rap Flow” something that influenced his journey into mainstream hip hop.
“I like to write about the society and its issues, so religion is not an exception. I’ll talk about it if I think there is the need for that”…. RappErSaniA
With a good number of unreleased original songs, he has done countless covers of amazing songs including “Beyond Practice” and “All of Me”, a cover of Jon Legend’s “All of Me” which he did for his female fans. When I asked him about why he puts so much lyricism on covers when he could do them as his own songs he had simply smiled and spoke.
“It is a sign of respect to the producer and artiste, and also just telling the world I could do fine like Nas. Besides covers have played instrumental roles in the careers of several chart-topping artistes. We all know how Kendrick Lemar rode on a Jay Z instrumental to become the new kid on the block. It’s not a requirement in hip-hop but its tool one can explore in a quest to attain global dominance”.
With the release of the aforementioned covers he decided to release “Mean Love” and “Nyura” featuring Kawastone, serving as teasers to his debut album.
To think that this gentleman would still be buried in stacks of hip hop albums is far from true because even though he reveres Nas, he listens to more Soul Music because he finds it soothing when he isn’t in his hip hop elements; and he has a soft spot for Asa, Sade, Adele and young Jhene Aiko.
“I’ve got a thing for Soul music you know, and I love Jazz too, my favourite is Fela Kuti. His skilful use of the saxophone endears him to me, and I admire his confidence considering the nature of politics in his time.”…He said.
The Future of Rappersania
On his future he had this to say.
“I have loads of tracks online and a full album waiting to be released. I’m also working on a ten-track Afro-Beats album. I thought of recording that album so people can see the versatility in skill when I switch between languages and rhythms.
Most of the tracks on the Afro-Beats album have me delivering mind blowing Dagbani verses interspersed with my regular flow in the queen’s language. Having shared stages with some of Ghana’s finest acts like Sarkodie, R2bees, 4×4 and rocked almost every major show that has happened in Tamale within the last few years, I feel I’m ready to fully grace the music scene with my art. This was re-enforced when Paedae “Omar Sterling” endorsed my art by saying “You are one hell of a writer”.
“I’m relatively young but I think I’m ready for this journey. As an independent artiste the support from my team iRap, a group of talented youngsters in Tamale with an impeccable flow like me, the sky is just a helipad. Expect my first video in the next couple of weeks”.
RappErSaniA is currently studying Laboratory Science at the Advanced Global College in Tamale, he is poised to build a career that will make his stay in hip-hop relevant and impactful.

No Miracles: The Upcoming Anthem for Self-Empowerment
No Miracles is not just another track—it’s a powerful anthem of self-reliance, resilience, and personal accountability. Dr. Pushkin, along with collaborators Jon Connor and Ataman Nikita, is set to drop a track that challenges the status quo and empowers listeners to take control of their lives.
Release Date: September 2025
Artists: Dr. Pushkin, Jon Connor, Ataman Nikita
Genres: Hip-Hop, Social Justice, Empowerment
No Miracles is not just another track—it’s a powerful anthem of self-reliance, resilience, and personal accountability. Dr. Pushkin, along with collaborators Jon Connor and Ataman Nikita, is set to drop a track that challenges the status quo and empowers listeners to take control of their lives. In this article, we’ll explore the meaning behind No Miracles, its message of empowerment, and why this track is set to make waves in the music industry.
Table of Contents
What is No Miracles All About?
In a world where many wait for external forces to bring about change, No Miracles delivers a refreshing message of self-empowerment. The song rejects the notion of “waiting for miracles”. Instead, it emphasises that the real power to change comes from within. The powerful lyrics resonate with anyone tired of waiting for things to change magically and is ready to take charge of their future.
Key lyric from the song:
“I don’t need no miracles,
Just the truth, my intuition,
And hope it’s mercy on my soul…”
Dr. Pushkin, Jon Connor, and Ataman Nikita together voice the frustrations of those who have been disillusioned by broken promises and societal structures that hinder personal growth. This track is a call to action for anyone who’s been waiting for a miracle and now realises that the only miracle they need is the belief in themselves.
The Power of Self-Empowerment Through Music
One of the most potent elements this song is its universal message. The song taps into the universal human experience of feeling powerless and challenges us to stop relying on external forces—whether that’s politicians, society, or anyone else. With lyrics like “I can be great on my own,” the song speaks to those who’ve realised that the power to change their lives lies within them.
In a world of social media influencers and empty promises, this anthem is a bold statement that reminds us all of our inherent power. No Miracles is more than a song; it’s a reminder that change starts with you.
The Global Collaboration That Brought No Miracles to Life
What makes the song truly special is the global collaboration between Dr. Pushkin, Jon Connor, and Ataman Nikita. While these three artists each bring their unique voices to the track, the production also plays a critical role. Phredxter, from Ghana, and Homie Xco, from Nigeria, collaborated to give the song a fusion of African and American musical influences, resulting in a track that feels both international and intimately personal.
Whether you’re vibing to the album version or the Homie Xco remix, it is bound to hit home with its mix of hip-hop energy and empowering lyrics. This fusion of cultures not only adds to the track’s appeal but gives it a global reach that is much needed in today’s fragmented world of music.
The Artists Behind this masterpiece
Dr. Pushkin: A Visionary for Change
Dr. Pushkin is not your average artist. With a keen sense of social justice, his music often challenges the norms and addresses issues that matter. In No Miracles, Pushkin continues his mission of encouraging listeners to take control of their destiny and question societal structures that promote dependency.
Jon Connor: The Voice for the People
Jon Connor’s career has always been about authenticity and truth. His involvement in No Miracles further solidifies his position as a voice for the voiceless, using his platform to challenge inequality and empower listeners to take charge of their lives.
Ataman Nikita: A Rising Star
Ataman Nikita brings a fresh perspective to No Miracles with his energetic flow and introspective lyrics. His unique sound enhances the track’s message and brings a new layer of depth to the global collaboration.
How No Miracles Will Inspire You
This track isn’t just music—it’s a movement. No Miracles encourages you to stop waiting for change to come from someone else and take ownership of your future. In a world that often feels out of our control, this anthem reminds you that you don’t need a miracle to succeed. What you need is your own determination, your belief in yourself, and the courage to take action.
With its universal message, No Miracles is set to be the anthem for anyone who’s ever felt stuck and is ready to take charge of their destiny. It’s a reminder that YOU have the power to create the life you want to live.

A feat worth celebrating
In a groundbreaking achievement for Northern Ghanaian music, the music video for “Empty Grave” by Dr. Pushkin and B-Wayne has officially become the most-streamed music video from Northern Ghana on YouTube, currently nearing 1.6 million views in just seven months.
Shot at the iconic Red Clay Studio in Tamale by visionary director Junaid Timtooni Yakubu and his talented team, the video has now surpassed the legendary “Total Cheat” by Fancy Gadam and Sarkodie. This track held its dominance for eight years.
What makes this milestone even more extraordinary is that “Empty Grave” reached this height without the usual advantages:
- No big-name Southern Ghanaian feature
- No mainstream media coverage
- No industry gatekeeper support or co-sign
Instead, its rise has been powered by its raw authenticity, cinematic brilliance, and a deeply resonant social message—proof that true artistry can thrive on merit and purpose alone.
The track, written by Paul Azunre and Bismark Sombilla and produced by Paul Azunre, Dreamlife & Memory, and Peewezel, stands as a compelling piece of conscious music that refuses to compromise. Its artistic excellence has also been recognised on the international stage, with multiple awards already won and more nominations on the horizon.

Tas Tas is a statement
Tas Tas is pure musical genius. Presented by the musical collective Savannah Sonics, the recruited musician for this particular song exudes a “show-off”. Each with an enviable stature as a creative, Gingsen, Wiz Child, and Ntelabi prove why they stand out amongst their peers. With an impeccable production quality, Tas Tas is a reminder of the musical prowess that abounds in northern Ghana.
Tas Tas comes on the heels of Northug’s assertion of neglect by mainstream Ghanaian media. However, productions like this further advance the discourse of looking beyond Accra for talented musicians. Music is one of the few elements of life that holds everyone spellbound. Thus, there’s a need to deliberately find more music outlets to quench the respective musical thirsts of all.
Enjoy Tas Tas, a baller’s ultimate anthem.
