Legendary Highlife musician, Nana Kwame Ampadu, has said that he should be credited as the originator of hiplife music in the country.
The celebrated musician who was a guest on #FridayOldSkuul on ‘Anɔpa Bɔfoɔ’ on Angel 102.9 FM on Friday, July 10, 2020, said he commenced rap music in the country.

He said the rap can be found in the Part 1 of the said video:
