Bag of Rocks, Soorebia’s debut album, is a dedication to form. It is a unique project conceived and shaped by hurdles as he navigates his way up to stardom. The album is an ode to his birth city and mirrors the diversity of culture and artforms that shaped his worldview and the variety of genres he dabbles.
Think of Bag of Rocks as a sealed bag containing minerals of a different kind, each with its unique richness. For Soorebia, the album is a collection of moods that he dealt with while recording the album.
“After winning the Next Rated Act at the 2020 edition of 3Music Awards, there was a lot of expectations from my fans and friends to breakthrough, and that never happened. Although COVID affected the industry so much then, I still felt I could not use the award to propel myself because of the limited financial muzzle. So, I began blaming everything on money that was when I wrote the verses for monopoly”. Soorebia revealed during his Album listening.
Songs on Bag of Rocks
Monopoly is a dancehall jam, where Soorebia turned his emotions to music speaking to the money and wealth as power distributors, which shapes the success of people in society to a more significant extent.
Soorebia-m-final
There is no emotion without love, and I’m Ready with One Nira is an appreciation of the friends and loved ones who stuck by him through thick and thin. His storytelling ability that weaves in the sultry vocals of One Nira on the hook establishes the work as not just an album but a life at play.
Through an ebb and flow performance on an Afro-Trap beat by long-time in-house producer AzkonnBeatz, Soorebia talks about nightlife and the vibe that comes to light when he is with his clique in Voole.
AzkonnaBeatz magically infused traditional African two-stringed guitar, referred to as Kologo in Local parlance, into Hip Hop sub-genre Trap beats. But the magic did not end with Voole. In Feeling, AzkonnaBeatz repeats a similar algorithm. This time, Brooklyn Inspired Drill beats, thereby pioneering new sub-genres as Afro-Trap/Afro-Drill. “Feeling” is a celebration of emotional and mental vitality.
In this project, Soorebia is selfless in recording an album that does not target just one set of his fanbase as rap heads who want it. “There is a rock for everyone”, he said when asked about the type of music the album is made of.
In celebrative moods, Soorebia shares a toast to life with the young, celebrated Rapper/Singer Fad in One Toast. The song sees Soorebia looking back at life whilst being optimistic about the success that awaits him. “I have been there and done that, like a wheel on the street I still run that, all day all night not redundant, it’s rampant, I work till I need me an accountant.”. This lyric portrays Soorebia’s current mindset as he continues his career. In this song, he goes spiritual, leaning to God to do the rest.
Soorebia-2-normal
On track 6 tilted Star, Soorebia decided to go south, not figuratively, but literally as he hops on South Africa bread Amapiono music. In this song, Soorebia delivers about 90 percent in Frafra, a Ghanaian language. In fact, some historians trace the origin of the Frafra people to South Africa. Cultural Similarities such as tone of language, traditional hunting, and funeral practices have been cited by some historians as what connects the two cultures. Star, therefore, fits perfectly into a typical Amapiono music although the song contains elements of Afrobeats.
The Album can also be perceived as an ode to his birthplace, and this is manifested in track 7 All Yours. Performed on traditional Kololgo rhythms, Soorebia sums up the important theme of the Album in this love song.
Summary on Bag of Rocks
The choice of songs in this album departs from Soorebia’ s typical aggressive rap that he is known for. But this did not come as a surprise as he has experimented with several genres and styles over the years. It also fits perfectly into the story told in the album and matches the diversity of cultures and experiences he has had growing up.
The richness of the sound, its representation of Africa, and the sonic quality are a mark of maturity and investment that Soorebia and AzkonnaBeatz have witnessed over the years. Bag of Rocks is an essential album for the growing Ghanaian/African Music and a true sound of Africa for the continent and global audience.
Soorebia has been a mainstay in the music from the Upper East of Ghana. Many regard him as peerless. This incredible rapper has chosen Bag of Rocks to express the fact that he is an embodiment of musical talent. His dexterous delivery on this album has further solidified his stature. While he awaits the big break, he continues to churn out amazing music for all.
Check him out on all digital platforms for exclusive releases.
We will be doing an entire piece on his discography soon. For now, Bag of Rocks.
Goggi is the first song from TiD Avare this year. It is basically a dance song, with prayer as lyrics. The young rapper proves to be versatile with his flow by marching the fast instrumentation boot for boot.
Despite being very danceable, the song is rich in content. The rapper prays away misfortunes by citing instances that would elude him. From accidents to Covid-19, the rapper says god’s grace will see him escape. Considering the damning effects of alcohol in the Builsa area, the young rapper prays away any incidents of alcoholism.
From all indications, Goggi emanates from the very nature of almost all African ethnicities. Dance is deeply embedded in most aspects of our culture. Goggi, therefore, charges us to pray heartily whilst dancing.
TiD Avare
About TID Avare
The senior high school student appears to have a knack for rap. Often blending phrases in English with Buli, the rapper remains a delight to the ear. With his kind of voice texture, flow, and cadence, I may be right in saying we have our own Sarkodie in the making.
Buli is not the easiest language to rap in. Even worst, rapping in the dialect spoken in Chuchuliga. However, the first time I heard “Firewood” by this amazing artiste, I knew some fire was coming. A follow-up song that featured him further revealed the Chuchuliga native is an emerging enigma.
With this new song titled “Goggi”, I can only expect a rise to the top.
The song is produced by Kobby Beats of Savanna Records. Listen and Download ‘Goggi” below.
TiD Avare has been on just three songs, yet he’s proven to be an enigma. As a rap enthusiast, I’ve often bemoaned the inadequate number of Buli rappers; TiD Avare however unpacks that paradox.
He is not an average rapper. Thus far, the Senior High School student has been impressive.

Shoutouts to Honcho Neggar for introducing me to this talent.
Nashberry readies a new banger titled “shame on you” featuring Best Gally. However, the affable act is already in the news for very good reasons. Reasons that demand another look at the success of musicians in this era of digital domination. The world of tech is now dotted with digital music sale platforms. And by the day, the need for a deliberate attempt to make sales via these platforms is resounding in all marketing ploys for musicians.
The era where stage performances bring the bulk of revenue is gradually creeping to an end. Digital streams are far more enduring, and a guarantee for a lifetime source of revenue for all musicians.
Nashberry
The entire savanna belt of Ghana has arguably 3 big musicians, Fancy Gadam, Wiyaala, and Maccasio. These three have proven strong due to the impressive following they have. However, a cursory look brings up names like Fadlan, WizChild, Don Sigli, Mani Mandela, Teflon Flex, Soorebia, Rockcity, Honcho Negga, and many others. These are very amazing artistes. But the question is, how much does their impressiveness bring when it comes to streams on platforms like Spotify?
The top-most streamed artistes from the North of Ghana
A few days ago, OneMuzikgh carried a story on Nashberry’s relevance as one of the most-streamed artistes from the savanna of Ghana, especially on Spotify.
Whilst it may not be news to many, an artiste from the Upper West Region scoring such huge streaming numbers is definitely worth celebrating.
Nashberry comes in 3rd with over 145,000 streams.
Fancy Gadam who is obviously a bigger artiste also has some over 300,000 streams, making him 2nd. Interestingly about half of his streaming numbers are coming from a collaboration with Sarkodie.
Wiyaala sits at number one with around 400,000 streams. These statistics suggest Nashberry is a major force to reckon with. No matter how his stature isn’t viewed as a Fancy Gadam or Maccasio, his drive definitely transcends a visit to the studio.
At the height of the coronavirus pandemic, Asonya Gh, a blogger who doubles as a digital music expert called on musicians to create a thriving digital presence. This for him was a way to make revenue at a time the world was on lockdown. Now, going outside the scope of a pandemic, success on the back of multiple streams of income is easier. So, given the opportunities available online, the call is prudent.
Asonya’s call for action
Having identified what can be a panacea for the poverty-stricken music industry of the savanna regions, the know-how is also a challenge. Asonya Gh has therefore availed himself to assist all interested musicians to create this digital presence.
Nashberry is actually one of the first musicians he signed on. He has indeed taken Nash’s relevance from zero to over 145k streams. You can reach Asonya Gh on Facebook for any dealings.
Considering the dynamism that governs the business of music of now, artistes must make major incursions to own a market share. In the process, expanding on the financially rewarding aspects of the industry. Suffice to say, the opportunities that come with technology today are one every artiste must take seriously.
Nashberry is a budding musician from the Upper West Region.
2021 is almost done; and Gospel singer Wegeiwor calls for a revival in her new single, First Love. Christendom is at a point where the message of repentance and salvation appears to dwindle. Many latches on to the message of prosperity, and prophecies that seem to beef up their desires. Unfortunately, the riches that come with accepting Christ Jesus as Lord and saviour demand for the faithful to be repentant, pious, and ever willing to pursue Godliness.
First Love By Wegeiwor 1
About First Love
In this new song, First Love; Wegeiwor reiterates the challenges of the time, reminding all of whom is true. The simple message of repentance and avoiding a reliance on false messages is the driving force behind this impressive reggae tune.
First LOVE BY WEGEIWOR
For believers, First Love is the song that gets you asking yourself a pertinent question. “I’m I ready for the second coming of Christ?”. Call it a test-my-place in Christ song, and you won’t be faulted.
With production from another gospel great, Koda at Koded Studios, one can understand how the song hits the soul. First Love is the first single off a yet-to-be-released EP.
Stream and Download First Love via the Link below.
About Wegeiwor
Wegeiwor is an affable personality who has resigned her every interaction to an opportunity to preach. Despite her busy schedule as a senior lecturer at the University of Ghana Business school, she makes it a point to preach the gospel in unconventional ways. Through her Foundation, Ex-Glo, she has supported students in deprived communities with items ranging from Furniture, Books to Sanitary Pads.
A major feature in all of this remains her call for people to rely on the Holy Spirit (freely given to Christians by Jesus Christ). To further reach the world, she has capitalized on her vocal strength to reach many through music. For her, the world is not just the beautiful cities but includes communities seen as unbelieving. Thus, she performs her music in languages that can easily be mistaken as heathen, especially when one considers mainstream gospel music in Ghana.
The most anticipated musical work of art from Navrongo is finally here as scheduled. Honcho Neggar promised to drop an impressive musical memoir a day after his birthday, and true to his words, he has delivered. The Experiences EP is now on all major streaming and music service platforms.
The Experiences EP
With the options of either streaming or buying, fans can wholly own or always return for a nice dose of LIFE in the eyes of this incredible rapper.
What he serves with The Experiences EP
The Experiences EP is the journey of a man born in Navrongo. A man whose journey transcends travel time, endeavors, the pursuit of education, the struggles of being a Ghanaian, and the desire to belong. This has informed his view of the world, which probably may be alien to me and you. It is the true-life story of one of Navrongo’s finest rappers, Honcho Neggar.
The Experiences EP By Honcho Neggar
For nearly two years, the talk of chronicling his life in an album has dominated his social media timeline. Despite jumping on several songs with other artistes, Honcho Neggar apparently kept the focus on what is arguably his biggest project yet. Released with the Apprise Music Distribution label, The Experiences EP is setting a standard.
Whilst releasing music on commercial platforms does not necessarily mean a major feat. The Savanna Regions of Ghana is yet to fully appreciate the business of music. Whereas many release their music on platforms for free, they still assume music sales who shoot up. It is therefore commendable that, from the onset, Honcho Neggar has chosen to see this as a business.
Songs like Bloodsuckas are an indication of the heart put into this body of work.
I’ll be doing a review of the album in the coming weeks.
Stream it, buy it, and leave comments.
More and More artistes from the North of Ghana are raising the bar in music.
Pius, known in musical circles as Honcho Neggar is about to set “rap-dom” off with pure genius lyrics. Known for his grit-filled bars in English, Kasem, and occasionally Twi. Expectations can only be as high as the heavens. His stand apart nature breeds one of the highest anticipated EP’s in recent times. Ordinarily, one would view the craving as a supposition, however, Honcho Neggar’s previous body-of-work lends credence to what we all anticipate.
What to Expect
The Experiences EP is an embodiment of everything rap and Hip hop. Suffice to say, despite being a musical genre, rap music is a tool that allows for infusions that spiral growth in many areas. It doesn’t just stay entertainment, and that is what the quick-witted Honcho Neggar specializes in. Having churned out many songs to prove relevance, dexterity, depth as a thinker, as well as a force to reckon with; one of Navrongo’s foremost lyricist is set to outdoor his first EP, The Experiences EP.
In a post on Facebook, the enigmatic rapper had the following to say about The Experiences EP.
“A man largely is a product of his environment. Whatever he experiences becomes his reality, unless after he encounters another culture that challenges his ways and he succumbs.”
This reveals a lot about what to expect. The chronicles of what makes a man, the effects of acculturation, and the possibility of coming up trumps. All beautifully put on beats.
According to Honcho Neggar, The Experiences EP captures vividly his experiences from birth to date. This encompasses all spheres of his socio-cultural experiences. From faith, all through to politics. Aspiring to leave his audience with an impressive memory with picturesque lyrics, he goes candid on all verses.
Preview of the EP
The Experiences EP has only two features; Alaptawan, and Tangasugu.
A precursor to this thought-winding EP was released sometime last year.
Bloodsuckers was more of a swipe at what politics in Ghana truly stands for. The song received ovatious reviews, what would the public say about The Experiences EP?
He’s assured listeners of themes that revolve around his Personal Life, Alcoholism, Tribalism/Ethnocentrism/Racism, Unity, among other sub-themes. All the songs were produced and mastered by three of Navrongo’s finest beatmakers: Masta Khen, D’fly, and KobbyBeats.
The six-track EP is a potpourri and is set to be released on the 24th of October, a day after Honcho Neggar’s birthday.
Starboy Saruata is lowkey one of the most prolific musicians from the Upper East Region. Despite his busy schedule as a trained teacher, the amazing singer who sometimes expresses his rap background has proven to be a major force in the region. As an artist who represents the Zongo community of the Upper East Region, it came as a shock when he released Waawa Yataaka.
Starboy Sarauta 7
About Wawa Yataaka
That particular song took a swipe at the controversial Showboy; another enigma within the Zongos of Bolga. The two were believed to have courted some beef, luckily it stayed on beats. On Wawa Yataaka, the known singer veers to exhibit his skill as a rapper; weaving between Hausa, English, and Gurune to prove his true stature.
Collaborating with Showboy
In a sharp contrast to the content of Wawa Yataaka, Starboy Sarauta has been featured by Showboy in a thriller of a song. The collaboration appears to be an extension of peace between the two.
