M.anifest-Sark
Feud Puts GH Dancehall Under Siege --- King One’s RASH JUDGEMENT
King One Beatz,
a multi-genre music producer in Tema, rashly judges that the recent
M.anifest-Sark beef is detrimental to the reign of dancehall in Ghana, inferring
that their feud is an organized lead attempt towards the resurrection of GH Rap
over GH Dancehall--- but the serious question is: “Is Hip Life still strong
enough to overthrow dancehall and assume its reign? If YES!, how long will this
overthrow last?.
It’s an undisputable fact
that major hip life stakeholders consider GH dancehall to be a rival genre ---
this is clearly so because hip life lost huge public attention when dancehall
took over the mainstream and most artiste managers would now hunt for dancehall
up-comers than rap up-comers. This is the effect that had some young GH rappers
switching to dancehall. They then began improving on their Jamaican patios
vocabulary, just to master the exchange and survive the threat. Thus, it’s no
secret how dancehall snatched a lot of rappers from hip life.
Now, it seems top hip
lifers are coming in so hard on a concerted effort to avert the strong threat
dancehall is posing to their falling genre and this is their weak strategy: “Serial Feud”. It starts with Sark’s
“Bossy”, E.L’s “King Without A Crown, M.anifest’s “god MC” and Sark’s “Kanta” –
his sequel directed against M.anifest. The massive attention these feud releases
are getting in the media makes King One
and other industry panelists infer the decline of GH dancehall --- because
dancehall is now being less discussed. Young
rappers are ever happy their leaders are pushing hip life back up high in reign
over dancehall, but are oblivious of the bitter truth – mission impossible.
The popular inference that
hip life will overthrow dancehall in Ghana is utter illusion --- a fantasy that
can never be realized anytime now.
Dancehall is
a revolution, hip life is not. Hip life has no lifestyle at all. There’s nothing
like hip life lifestyle, but dancehall is a lifestyle in its own respect. Worse, hip
life hasn’t even lived a bit of the struggle GH dancehall has been through before
--- from the days of zero media attention, lack of stakeholders, corporate shun,
genre minority, and whatever.
It should be noted that the
depth of dancehall’s cementation in Ghana keeps thickening by the day and there’s a large
bunch of several wild dancehall up-comers who are stomping and hammering hard against
the industry’s back door, hence it
won’t be an easy task for the hip life cohort gurus to sink GH Dancehall down --- much
especially, when this large bunch breaks into mainstream, the impossibility
will deepen.
GH Dancehall and GH Rap
are rival genres, accepted and understood! --- but the latter can never give
the former a threatening competition, even in a cross-genre beef. Dancehall is
too rough
and tough to ever lose its reign in Ghana. The genre has much more to give than what the nation has yet seen. The
stakeholders within the core force upholding GH Dancehall have a lot of unrevealed
smart plans up their sleeves and are ready anytime to salvage the genre from
harsh emergency.
Concluding, King One’s rash
judgment and others like it only seems real, it’s an illusion born out of lame reasoning
– maybe irrational fear. The
M.anifest-Sark feud poses no threat to the reign of dancehall in Ghana. Honestly, ” Bossy”, “A King Without A Crown”, “god
MC”, “Kanta” and all future feud releases that may join the series will rather
make GH Rap keenly interesting than lay it over dancehall.
GH Dancehall reigns til
kingdom come!
