Kwame Nsiah Apau aka Rap Dacta Okyeame Kwame

My music is for discerning people - Okyeame Kwame
Over the years, Okyeame Kwame has established
himself as one of the best musicians in Ghana and
beyond.

For 16 years and counting his music has
continuously inspired and massively won the heart
of all. It usually focuses on affairs of love,
life and family.

Currently, Okyeame has released a single off his
fifth solo album, the “African Connection”
titled “It’s your time’’ which features
Congolese singer, Lelo.

The concept behind this song is positivism. It
describes the troubles and stresses we go through
as human in our daily life.

He states that the motivation of this song is
directed to everybody; especially the youth that
listens to his music and this is to give
inspiration to them.

Okyeame believes his orientation and beliefs
influence his music. He said “a discerning
person is gentle, positive and progressive,
someone who looks out for change, and someone who
doesn’t like rowdiness and appreciate
quality.”

He added that music is a feeling and not something
he tries hard to achieve. His music also contains
some spirituality, it entertains, informs and
calls for action.

The Rap Docter sees himself as a positive person
hence the messages carried in his songs are
couched distinctively to satisfy the positive
thinking people and to generate satisfaction.

He agrees that music is diverse and for everyone
but he believes he attracts some type of people
who identify with his music.

Okyeame Kwame is certain he cannot please everyone
in life so he chooses his audience carefully.
