Rap Doctor To Release ‘Okyeame Kwame Versatile Show’ Album In December

For a musician who Literature means a lot to, Okyeame Kwame, has hinted that the release of his ‘Okyeame Kwame Versatile Show’ Album was carefully guided with poetry lovers in mind.

Also called ‘Rap Doctor’, Okyeame Kwame revealed that, “I am staging the ‘Okyeame Kwame Versatile Show’ at the National Theater to coincide with the album launch in appreciation of my fans who have given me so much. This album provides a lot of education in literature for fans to keep”.

The ‘Faithful’ and ‘Woso’ singer has hinted that the finished hard copy of his album will include a booklet containing lyrics of all the songs on the album. "This is important because it will indulge listeners by enabling them to have a clear understanding of the verbal aspect of the album, which contains poetic elements for academic and educational purposes", he explained.

Even though the lyrical content of some songs contains some adult themes, he is optimistic that every individual who values education through music can relate to the content. "As you know, Literature modifies and brings new dimensions to one’s thought,” which he believes is what this album is out to achieve.

His heart desire, he disclosed, is to see that in some years to come all his music will be translated into more than 20 different international languages for educational purposes simply because of its poetic and communicative elements. He compares himself to Shakespeare saying if Shakespeare's works were acknowledged years after his death, his (Okyeame Kwame) works will also go places even as he is alive.

The ‘Okyeame Kwame Versatile Show’ is the fourth solo album by Okyeame Kwame. The only one of its kind, the Rap Doctor delivers a mixture of English, Twi, and Pidgin (broken English) languages on this album.

Another one-off with this album is that O.K features some popular artistes and producers. One December 14th, at the ‘Okyeame Kwame Versatile Show’ Event, Okyeame Kwame is set to perform each song on the album with the various artistes featured on the album at the National Theater.

Artiste featured runs the gamut of Kesse, Raquel, Efya, Irene Logan, Nana Yaa, Tinny, Edem, Stone (of Bradez fame) as well as others on the album.

The show seeks to fuse together Music, Dance and Theatre on one stage.
