Obofour Raphael has released his latest album, “Adom Akyedeɛ” (Gift of Grace), available exclusively on his website, www.obo4raphael.com. The project follows a freestyle drop titled “Adom Akyedeɛ (Intro)”, which set the tone for the full release.
The 18-track album highlights the enduring relevance of Hiplife in Ghana’s music culture. Throughout the record, Obofour seamlessly blends live instrumentation, storytelling, and collaborations that resonate with both the roots and future of the genre.
The tracklist includes “King of Hiplife,” “Obaa,” “Efie Nipa,” and “Yesu” with impressive features including Morris Babyface, Ko-Jo Cue and American Hip-Hop legend, Sadat X alongside contributions from acts like Tillie Gya, K.K Kabobo, George Jahraa and Nana Ama. With production credits featuring Zapp Mallet, Roro, Altra Nova, Kuvie, Ivan Beats, Mr. Aborga and Mark Eyden of Sun Street Studios (UK), the project seamlessly blends Ghanaian sounds with global craftsmanship.
Obofour Raphael’s “Adom Akyedeɛ” is positioned as both a celebration and a reminder of Hiplife’s cultural weight, offering longtime fans and new listeners a chance to experience the genre’s legacy through a fresh body of work.
