Emmanuel Kweku Owusu Darlington, trading with Showbiz name Kweku Darlington has quota to the ongoing conversation saying the success of Ghanaβs music in the market is dependent on hiplife.
The bane of finding the sound to challenge the global rise of afrobeats and the rise of other music genres on the global market scene has consciously created serious industrial conversations and debate amongst musicians, gatekeepers, music lovers and other stakeholders.
In a Facebook post, the βSika Aba Fieβ hitmaker wrote, βWeβve been seeking for answers to Ghanaβs success in the market!!!Β HIPLIFE IS THE SOUNDβ.
This post comes off just months after the GRAMMYβs recent grouping of some of africaβs genres into a broader category named the Best African Music Performance.[add Facebook link ]
With the mother genre, hiplife excluded from the list and a new tag of βghanaian drillβ added to the list, Kweku Darlington believes hiplife has proven to be the catalyst for ghanaian music dominance and success.
His comments would come off a surprise to many who havenβt paid close attention to him but putting his catalogue under close lenses proves the young Ghanaian musician since his breakthrough has projected hiplife music in every possible way.

From his song Onipa ft Okyeame Kwame, Sika Aba Fie Remix, Aketesia and other songs, Kweku Darlington has drawn a template off appreciating the authentic Ghanaian hiplife sound and believes itβs the stimulus for his widespread growth in the industry.
His new single Happy Day is however available everywhere online on all DSPs
