HIP LIFER SOKATOA |
Hip life welcomes the
new budding rap talent ‘Sokatoa’ known in real life as Abubakar Anis – Manas who
is out with his debut single ‘Gbelemo’ which features the hi-life sensation
D-flex of eastern World entertainment.
Sokatoa in a long
interview with 18newspaper disclosed: ‘I just didn’t get up to do music, I took
my time to study the craft, as a full graduate from Accra Polytechnic at least I
understand the blue prints of the game am in now.’
The rapper from the
ghettos of Darkuman, talking about his career, he said, he is almost done with the
first debut album titled ‘fire in the hole’ and it has great artistes on it.
‘I worked with the
ever good guys from Nima, Mohammed, MOB, D-flex, Promzy (VIP), KK Fosu, Iwan, just to mention a few plus some magical hands
on the beat hence this album simply establishes the fact that some Hip life
musicians are confused in the game.
18newspaper asked why
Sokatoa is using his debut album to establish the fact that some Hip life
artistes are confused, this was his answer.
‘the reason is
simple, we are trying to neglect our culture, most of the artiste try to speak
someone’s else’s language in their songs hence the ‘the fire in the hole’ album
will take them through the culture of our rich country Ghana with a correct
blend of local dialects and pigen.

Currently Sokatoa is
promoting ‘Gbelemo’ single and the responses from Plus 89.9fm, Oxyfm, great fm,
among other online downloading sites such as Bigxgh.com, Ghanamotion.com,
18newspaper.com are awesome, meaning the message is getting down well among
people.
In his ending
statement with 18newspaper, Sokatoa said the Gbelemo has a video on youtube,
some television stations plus online sites, the current song is doing well and
he hopes Ghanaians will understand his message, but he wanted Ghanaians to note
that he is here to battle any musician.
He thanked all the
artistes who featured on his songs, beat makers, Djs for the air play, his
team, friends and fans, keep pushing Hip life music.
