Why I started “Yeete Nsem’ - Amerado

Amerado has narrated how he came up with his weekly rap series 'Yeete Nsem".

‘Yeete Nsem’ is a weekly series where he submits hilarious takes on the most interesting and trending issues that occurred during the week. 

The rapper revealed that the show was born out of the need to stand out from other rappers while entertaining the public.

He said this while speaking in an interview with YFM’s Winston Michaels on Shouts On Y.

“Coming up with this whole idea happened when my team sat down with me to tell me for a fact that I always drop freestyles at random, which is not really something commercial. Ghanaians don’t really like the kind of rap styles going back and forth saying ‘I am the best’."

"Once in a while, you can do that. So when we sat down, the idea came and I had to be consistent and that was a very challenging factor”.

Amerado explained that since the commencement of the rap series, there has always been a heavy responsibility on him to be consistent.

“Coming up with the idea is one factor and making sure it doesn’t fall out is another factor. Once we dropped the idea, I told myself, this was it."

"People loved the intro so I promised myself to stay true to the project and prove to people how good I was. I have just been learning and learning and always make sure I always bring out the best”, He said.

The rapper further claimed that 2020 as his year of blessings despite the presence of the pandemic.

“When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, most artistes were not really active. But my team and I came up with a concept called ‘Yeete Nsem’. This really boosted my confidence and my audience as well”.

“In 2020, I was able to drop a couple of songs and I was fortunate to have featured Fameye and Okyeame Kwame”.
