OB sent me this song 3-4 years ago … and I hadn’t recorded or rapped in a long time. Loved it so much I wrote a verse that went on after the beat ended … and @wudinimovement was gracious enough to let us keep it as it is … in a way, he brought back my love for rap in that moment!
If you’re a true rap head, you need to check it out!

I love this app. I’ve always loved this app.
Maybe because writing has always been my strongest superpower. I express myself better when I write. It also allows me to hide my face, my environment, my circumstances. And it used to be a lot of fun to joke, laugh, and argue with people on here.
But in a world where people have always debated (read: argued) to win rather than to learn, building a platform that rewards engagement monetarily was always going to have consequences. Monetization didn’t create that problem, but it certainly poured fuel on it.
Imagine a massive parliament where everyone is screaming at each other, not because they care deeply about the positions they're defending, but because attention has become a currency. Some people genuinely believe what they're saying. Most are simply playing to the crowd. Either way, the loudest and most outrageous voices tend to travel the furthest.
I understand the ideal behind it all. I really do. A place where everyone can voice their opinions on issues they care about is a great thing. But when money gets tied to attention, people naturally gravitate toward whatever earns more of it. Sometimes that means saying things they don't believe. Other times it means becoming more extreme versions of who they already are. Both outcomes concern me.
And in a time when so many kids are growing up online instead of outside, that matters. The internet isn't just reflecting culture anymore; it's helping shape it. When the most rewarded behaviour is outrage, performance, and conflict, that doesn't stay on the screen. It spills over into how people think, talk, and relate to one another.
These days, I post, reply to dms and then leave because scrolling through gives me too much anxiety.
And even though I'm saying how I feel, the quote that will probably get the most engagement on this post will read something like:
"Janice, STFU."
Maybe they're right and I’m just too old for this app.
@KiDiMusic and @KOJO_Cue always seem to have great chemistry on songs . First on this song and then ‘Things We Do Love’. They should give us one last song 🙏😭
The Kidi song in question. Till this day the instrumentals on this song doesn’t seize to amaze me. @KiDiMusic and @KOJO_Cue were gliding on the beat like nothing 🤣🔥. That beat change in Frame 3 almost exploded my head. Kojo cue kept flowing like crazy🔥
Had an interesting conversation with @rayganofficial on Unscripted. Just two “Young” people discussing life 🤣🤣🤣🤣 … check it out on YouTube, you’ll learn a lot: https://t.co/pmIuqUWySG
He sold the shoes off his feet to buy studio time.
The first time he touched a major stage, he forgot every lyric.
A decade later, he's one of Ghana's most thoughtful storytellers, turning questions about purpose, healing, and life into art.
Meet @KOJO_Cue.
