Dancehall Will Forever be On Top Of The World - Epixode

Epixode has vowed to take Ghanaian reggae/dancehall to the next level after his win at the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards.

The reggae artiste bagged the Reggae and Dancehall Artiste of the Year at the awards over the weekend.

According to him, the next step would be to soon take over the world with the Ghanaian style of music because the genre already accepted all over the world.

"Reggae and Dancehall would forever top the world of music and I believe Reggae from Ghana would soon take over. Reggae has always been in our blood as some Highlife artists some time back did branch into that genre but we can rebrand it and add our local influence to make it special and I believe the world would appreciate it.

"The next move for me after this award is to try and help those artists who need a helping hand in the Reggae and Dancehall space and make the genre very vibrant,''

This he said in his recent interview with GNA Entertainment after his monumental win at the awards.

Epixode won the award at the expense of heavy hitters such as Larruso, Ras Kuuku Samini and Kaphun who were also nominated for the Reggae and Dancehall Artiste of the Year category.

He hinted at a collaboration with the other heavyweights just to put rivalry aside and push the African brand of music to the world.

"There are thousands of Reggae and Dancehall artiste in Ghana and you are a winner if you get nominated because you are doing something positive in the industry.

"I have personally contacted some of the nominees to congratulate them and I think the Dancehall space is so huge for all of us and we have to work hard to take it to the world."
