I hope Mega Don comes to bless us with some knowledge on this subject soon. I feel what you are saying Ras Nii, hiplife is evolving. We still have the raglife tracks, the jama type tracks, those with the adowa beats, and the hip hop type stuff too. The whole world is seeing some kind of crunk, so why not hiplife? I just think the hiplife artistes are trying out new things and are trying to make more complete albums. See case in point, Samini - he had a ballad, R&B, hiplife, reggae, dancehall songs, all on one album. Even Lil Wayne did 'Lollipop'.

Thanks for the songs you pointed out. I love a lot of the tracks and some are becoming major hits, especially the Woso remix. I feel Disastrous on I rep Ghana too. I think we should bottle hiplife into being one particular type of music and understand that the styles will vary. You will agree that even the sound engineers in Ghana are all trying to be different, so are the rappers trying to carve niches for themselves, so we will continue to see some more crunk. Look at how 5Five was successful with African girls.

I was very surprised with Quata on his 'Baby' track. Didn't see him making such a song. Hotgirls.com was the pioneer and I believe even with its bad lyrics, the song will be a classic in years to come. It's nice to see Hammer back with Edem, that track is hot, and I pray that Edem (for the love of Ewe music) makes it big.

I think the best song is Woso remix, followed by Give me blow, Bougez, and I rep Ghana. As for Asem, Kwaw Kese and Sarkodie, they are three of the hottest cats in the game now. I don't think there will be the creation of a new genre, Raglife couldn't do it and I don't see crunk hiplife doing it. Asem told me in an interview that he's not going to classify himself as hiplife (he said Ghanaian hip hop), many of the musicians are doing that too.

PS: Sakodie is the truth! I've been catching him on Kasahare Level on Adom FM with Dr. Duncan, massacre-ing people on rap battles! You should check out his mixtpaes on his Myspace
