DopeNation has said that it is prepared to unveil the new musical style known as Ghanapiano. The music duo, which consists of identical twins, predicted that this new sound would include African-inspired sampling sounds.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The Ghanaian musicians acknowledged that they had \u201cstolen\u201d the beat from the late music producer Edward Nana Poku Osei, better known by his stage name Da\u2019Hammer.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The pair asserts that Check My Zingo, their most recent single incorporates Hammer\u2019s style in an effort to blend classic and contemporary beats from other prodcers.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

When asked if they had discussed the sound with Da\u2019Hammer, they admitted that they hadn\u2019t and that they had \u201cjust taken the sample.\u201d They did admit, though, that they would be willing to accept any financial or copyright claims that came from using the sample.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf there\u2019s a claim, there will be loyalties that will be given to him. DopeNation added that the use of the beats to formulate a new style of African sound called Ghanapiano.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt actually started with Gboza; there are elements of Da\u2019Hammers sounds in there. What we are trying to do is we are trying to churn a new sound called Ghanapiano,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n
