In an interview with Graphic Showbiz, Rama Blak who released Asaase Nnwom EP in April, said she was excited to be part of a new generation of artistes who are pushing Highlife music and the release of her new album is “receipt” of her years of work into her Highlife agenda.
“In 2018, I made the decision not to be afraid of my voice and start singing. Many friends as well as my fans always told me I had an ‘old soul’, whatever that means, I don’t know but what I know is that I’ve always loved our authentic Highlife music.
“That was one of the major drive to go into commercial music and I’m excited that things are gradually falling into place and I get to hold a concert next month,” she said.
