Obibini is of the opinion that Ghanaian rappers need to make more officials move in order to push the Ghanaian rap genre to the world.

By official moves, the rapper explained that rappers need to sign recording contracts that announce them on the world stage.

According to him, when it comes to lyrics and rhythm, rappers are already doing the most they can.

The only way to push forward and sell music internationally is if more networking opportunities are created.

“The product is great, but it has to be out there in the faces of people like the other genres. We just have to brand it well and sell to the world”.

“Now, it’s about what Ghana is bringing to the world because Nigeria as we can see is already selling something and the others are buying. This means we should also ask ourselves what Ghana is selling.”

This he said while speaking to Foster Romanus e.TV Ghana’s Late Nite Celebrity Show.

Obibini reiterated that Ghanaians must realise that the digital era can be taken advantage of as he explained that it does not only depend on musicians or rappers alone to make this global dream a reality.

“It’s for everybody to support us. The fans, industry pundits and everyone else has to get involved,” he said.

 It means we are no closer to winning a Grammy. We have to work more and improve upon our network. While you promote the genre in Ghana, think about Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria, and the global market”. He concluded.
