Kwaw Kese is a Ghanaian hip-life heavyweight, and he teams up with Kumasi street-pop act Oseikrom Sikanii for an exciting new joint named, “Proceeds”.
The wild collab is timely since Ghanaian rap fans are yearning for gritty, money-motivated street anthems to get them through their daily grind. The dance floors and hip-hop enthusiasts are always looking for a hard-hitting song that hails money and street smarts. Therefore, teaming up with a high-energy Kumasi rapper is a very natural combination that satisfies that very appetite.
Sound architects build a loud, head-banging atmosphere based on hammering kick drums and crisp hi-hat loops. They layer a dark sub-heavy bassline under fast-paced percussion rhythms to give the instrumental maximum bounce. But the roomy setup allows every word and ad-lib to come through clearly.
Kwaw Kese runs the album with his usual boisterous voice and strong delivery. He juggles the breakneck pace with ease, dishing out grizzled street knowledge and biting punchlines about earning the rewards of his effort. His strong vocal presence also gives the tune an immediate adrenaline rush from the outset.
Oseikrom Sikanii comes on stage to lighten the mood with his infectious humour, smart street slang, and catchy cadence. The songwriting is largely focused on profit, counting money, and enjoying the benefits of continuous hustle. Their chemistry together turns a basic studio session into a hymn for every hustler striving for financial freedom.
This record has everything come together perfectly and results in a complete adrenaline-packed hip-hop banger. Throughout, the chemistry between the experienced star and fresh Kumasi wonder shows. The end product thus has an addicting motion that keeps your head bobbing.
This hot track is certainly one you should be throwing directly onto your exercise and daily driving playlists today. Listen to “Proceeds” on Spotify or Apple Music today!
