Hiplife act Joe Fraizer is on a mission to clean what he terms ‘borla’ (garbage) music being produced by some artistes in Ghana. senseless
According to him, some artistes today only release ‘borla’ songs and warned that failure to check the development will cause the demise of the hiplife genre.
Joe Fraizer gave the caution in an interview with Joy fm.
He noted that, “If we really want hiplife to stay, we need to make sense in our songs. People think that hiplife is all about wearing bigger earrings, bigger jeans and other stuff.”
Asked which artistes produce ‘borla’ songs in Ghana, the rapper cited “‘Ye Wo Krom’ [by Atom], very nice concept, very poor instrumentation, very poor rap. that is not good.”
“Somebody like EL, he started with Azonto. Azonto made him EL right? Now that Azonto is gone he is still EL,” he noted, insisting that EL is still relevant because he keeps reinventing himself.
Joe Fraizer said, “Nana Boroo, Akoo Nana, [were] doing so well,” but they have now become irrelevant because Azonto is no longer relevant.
This is not the first time he lashing out about the quality of some hiplife songs being released in recent times.
Joe Fraizer, in an interview on Happy FM in September this year named Stay Jay, Atumpan and Nana Boro as musicians who are no more relevant because Ghanaians have lost interest in Azonto songs.
To push his agenda, the hiplife artiste is out with a new video titled, ‘Borla Goods’ featuring Ogya Mensah.
