“Riddim Of The GODS (ROG)”, an aggregated music project he sparked in 2019, following successful single Riddims from 2009, to unearth budding artistes and as well as add value to mainstream musicians, has become a household project all stakeholders in the music industry anticipates every year. The maiden “ROG” edition he championed in 2019, where he hosted over 32 Ghanaian musicians on a 5-part Riddims album, initiated a partnership with Africa’s biggest music streaming platform, Boomplay.
