The dream of every Ghanaian musician is to knock into the international market where the game goes beyond your language and the competition is tougher. A few have achieved this height and another group are yet to do it. One cannot make a list currently without adding the new phase of musicians like Mensah & Kubolor (Fokn Bois), Sarkodie, 4x4, Samini, Blitz, J-Town to name but a few.
Just last year, Kwaw Kesse flipped on a beat with Memphis Bleek, an American hip-hop star and this was made possible by Coptic, a Multi-Platinum Hip Hop & R&B Record Producer born in Ghana and living in Brooklyn, NYC. However, Coptic, the mastermind behind that collaboration is coming back with another BANGER!
This banger is an upcoming mixtape which has six Gh artistes repping it hard. Entertainment Three60 gathered that the artistes: Trigmatic, Iwan, D-Black, M3nsa, Kubolor and Kwaw Kesse are going to be on this mixtape along side some African Hip-Hop artistes like Nigeria’s ModeNine and Abass Abass, and several American Hip-Hop stars like Memphis Bleek, Raekwon, Havoc (Mobb Deep), Dead Prez, Jim Jones, Black Rob.
The BLACK STAR mixtape (the title of the mixtape) is anticipated to take the world by storm upon release and Its a prelude to his ‘Close TO My Roots’ album.
Eric "Coptic" Matlock has work with many Hip-Hop and R&B hit makers. Some of the names on his résumé are Diddy, Notorious B.I.G, Ludacris, Ice Cube, Jermaine Dupri, Faith Evans, Snoop, Mase, Carl Thomas, Goodie Mobb etc.
