In August 2019, Jam Master Jay (JMJ)<\/strong>, renowned award-winning Ghanaian Producer, made Ghanaians in showbiz privy to his willingness to serve music enthusiasts with a project dubbed \u201cRiddim Of The GODS\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The riddim compilation project cuts across Afrobeats, Reggae\/Dancehall and Rap circles. For the purpose of clarity, the project seeks to assign a single instrumentation or better still riddim to a number of selected artistes to deliver their very best of lyrics.<\/p>\n

To make long story short, the first batch or phase of the much-popularized project is out, therefore, this blog post curated by Adu Sarpeah, Ghana\u2019s Realest Blogger<\/strong>, is basically to critiqu\u00e8 the output of the respective artistes featured on the riddim put forth by JMJ.<\/p>\n

E.L <\/strong><\/p>\n

E.L.\u2019s version is titled \u201cHi Up<\/strong>\u201d. Listening attentively to his verse for more than 5 times, the content is all about him (E.L) claiming supremacy but he\u2019s still missing a lot for obvious reasons.<\/p>\n

As he reiterated severally in the song that he is the best and will forever remain the best in the industry and that proclamation is just ridiculous. \u00a0You can\u2019t blame him either as bragging has been the nature of rap. In all, I will rate him 6\/10.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>SARKODIE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sarkodie\u2019s version christened \u201cDo it like Sark\u201d<\/strong> and as usual, he didn\u2019t disappoint. His flow energy and voice modulation remain superb. The least said about him the better. I will rate him 8\/10<\/strong> considering the fact that he was too self-centered. For once, Sarkodie should stop talking about his exploits in songs always.<\/p>\n

\"Riddim

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>OKYEAME KWAME<\/strong><\/p>\n

As stated earlier in the caption, Okyeame Kwame should be whipped severely for his abysmal output on the song titled \u201cDiss\u201d.<\/u> <\/strong>Nonetheless, I can\u2019t establish the truth or whatsoever if Okyeame Kwame intentionally put together that shoddy verses as rap as I am tempted to believe that his little son, Kwame Bota<\/strong> wrote the verses on his behalf (No pun intended). I will rate him 4\/10.<\/strong><\/p>\n

FLOWKINGSTONE<\/strong><\/p>\n

Okyeame Kwame\u2019s description fits him better so no time to waste. His biggest setback has to do with the erroneous perception that Ghanaians keep underrating him because he\u2019s Kumsi-based. To give him the benefit of the doubt, I will rate him 5\/10<\/strong> on the \u201cGovernor\u201d<\/strong> track.<\/p>\n

STRONGMAN<\/strong><\/p>\n

His version titled \u201cNo Debate\u201d has caused a lot of hullabaloo on social media following a comment passed by Mr. Logic. He didn\u2019t disappoint on the track per his standard. Strongman is still learning on the job so\u2026 I will rate him 7\/10.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>TEEPHLOW<\/strong><\/p>\n

He got it when it comes to wordplay, but real rap is not all about playing-on-words (wordplay)<\/strong>. His version is titled \u201cMissing Pairs\u201d. Per the lyrical content of the song, Teephlow feels rap music in Ghana is not complete without his signature \u2013 so, he remains the missing pair! I will rate him 7.5\/10.<\/strong><\/p>\n

OBIBINI<\/strong><\/p>\n

Honestly, the seriousness Obibini, \u201crap mu wudini\u201d<\/strong>, on his part of the cypher dubbed \u201cFlow Dripping\u201d is questionable. I don\u2019t know if he comes from a super-rich family, but \u201cDada Bee\u201d kind of raps nkoaa as one should be more attentive and critical to decipher his words. I will rate him 6\/10.<\/strong><\/p>\n

EDEM<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNumber 9\u201d happens to be the title of his verse. His rapping tone or better still language remains a challenge, cet\u00e8ris paribus. I will rate him 5.5\/10.<\/strong><\/p>\n

PERSONAL OBSERVATION<\/strong><\/p>\n

In all, \u201criddim of the gods\u201d <\/strong>cypher project spearheaded by Jam Master Jay (JMJ) is one of the best things ever to happen in Ghana Industry for the past decade. However, publicity about the timeless initiative has been low for obvious reasons and it\u2019s unfortunate.<\/p>\n
