Ghanaian music duo, Ruff N Smooth, have met with American R&B superstar, Akon, UK’s number one rapper, Sway, and Nigerian music duo, P Square in London.
The meeting which took place at the W Hotel in Leicester Square, Central London, one of UK’s luxurious hotels, was to strategise collaborations between Ruff N Smooth, Ghanaian-born UK rapper, Sway who is under the management of Akon’s Konvict Music and an unnamed international act.

The songs were produced in Ghana but are currently being reworked in the UK by music producer Possigee. Final mixing of the song will be done in the US at a later date.
Sway recorded his verses of the songs from the UK while Ruff N Smooth, made up of Bullet and Ahkan, did their bit here in Ghana before leaving for the UK.
The meeting, which was also attended by Babs of Konvict Music and Swag Team Management, Ruff N Smooth’s management in the UK, was used to plan the video shoot for the tracks which is expected to be shot in the UK on September 26.
