Fante rap god, Kofu Kinaata has shared the motivation behind him switching from rapping to singing.

‘I had very good messages in my rap song but I realized people didn't get them till I started singing. That’s when people who started going back to my rap songs found out they carried good messages. I was speaking typical Fante as well [which was even difficult for Twi speaking people] and what is rap if the people can’t understand? However, with singing, people can even move or dance to the rhythm and melodies without understanding the lyrics.’ he said.
