Sankofa Radio - U.S Based Ghanaian Radio Station Airing The Latest Beats

Emmanuel Osei Darko affectionately called DJ Ras is the brain behind
SANKOFA MEDIA COMPANY, operators of SANKOFA TV, SANKOFA SOUNDZ and SANKOFA
RADIO, the trail blazing Ghanaian online radio station which began
transmission in 2008 in Virginia, United States. For most of his former
classmates that know him by his high school nickname “Obarty”, it comes as
no surprise that this former school prefect of Kumasi High School turned
presenter continues to make moves in the radio industry.
He started djing events and had stints with RADIO CONTACTO, CONTINENTAL
RADIO, and RADIO LINK, all on the campuses of Kwame Nkrumah University of
Science and Technology and Kumasi Polytechnic in the Garden City,
respectively while in secondary school. These on-the-job training
experiences were in addition to understudying popular presenters like JOE
AMEE then of OTEC FM (Kumasi) , Big Shaq now of BOSS FM, Shaq ‘B’ now of
ZURIA FM , and Frankie Taylor (FOX FM) among others.
After his secondary school, he relocated to the United States in 2001 where
he trained and worked for Virginia State University’s campus radio station
WVST 91.3 FM while pursuing his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. Within the
same period, he was the host of a community affairs program on AM 820, a
local Gospel station in Richmond, Virginia and also doubled as the board
operator for their sister station WZEZ 100.5 FM for almost 4 years. He most
recently worked for another internet radio station in Washington DC, SIKA
RADIO from 2005 to 2008.
DJ Ras currently hosts Sankofa Happy Hour every Tuesday and Thursday
Evening between 7-9 pm ET and Weekend Warm-up on Fridays 7-10p ET. He also
provides musical services for all occasions on the east coast through his
Sankofa Soundz , a subsidiary of Sankofa Media Company.
The sky is the limit for DJ Ras- he envisions expanding the reach of his
media initiative. He owes his successes chalked so far to God, family, and
his fans. For now he encourages us all to keep listening to SANKOFA RADIO,
for the best in music and more.
