If you listen to it, there are elements of Hammer\u2019s tunes in there. We are trying to churn a new sound called \u2018Ghanapiano\u2019,\u201d they revealed.<\/p>\n<p>When asked if the revelation would not spark any form of controversy and the like, Dope Nation stated that \u201cThis is not to fight anyone\u2019s intellectual property. We are just trying to give credence to everybody and at the same time, bring a new sound.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reason why it\u2019s Ghana is that we are taking old and new sounds from the Ghanaian culture musically and we merge it on the piano. If you listen to \u2018Gboza\u2019, you\u2019ll hear these elements on the piano, that\u2019s why we churned the name \u2018Ghanapiano\u2019,\u201d they explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Ghanapiano\u2019 is a fusion of the popular South African amapiano together with Ghanaian culture. Due to the huge role the South African sound plays in the turn-out of the new sound, the amazing duo learnt the craft and incorporated it into their project.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe didn\u2019t just get up one day and come up with the term. We have friends who are producers in South Africa that actually opened their doors to us,\u201d they disclosed.<\/p>\n<p>They continued, \u201cWe saw how they made their beats, learnt their elements and decided to make this type of sound. You can hear the amapiano instruments, but it is a Ghanaian sound.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dope Nation \u00a0 Dope Nation, Ghanaian twins turned music duo, have revealed that they are working on a new sound called \u2018Ghanapiano\u2019 which they will incorporate into their music.
