Kofi Jamar brings out Ice Prince and Khaligraph Jones on his ‘In The City’ hit single

4 mins read

Kofi Jamar had Ice Prince Zamani and Khaligraph Jones come together to give Africa and the world one of the hardest hip hop records yet.

The Ghanaian rapper who is not only a rapper but also an Afrobeat artiste has had a busy year with the ‘In The City’ record being the seconds single he released in the year after he released ‘Mariama’ song on Valentine’s Day.

Through his management company, GADone Records, Kofi Jamar is focused on taking over the international hip hop scene and it is rather poetic to have two of the celebrated African rappers; the BET award-winning rapper Ice Prince Zamani and AFRIMA, AFRIMMA winner Khaligraph Jones being a part of his international ascension.

Kofi Jamar is currently nominated at the 2020 Vodafone Ghana Music Award in the “Unsung Category”.

Khaligraph Jones, Ice Prince Zamani brought all the heat on the record making Kofi Jamar looking great on the Jaysynths-produced record which is currently on rotation in three African countries namely Kenya, Ghana and Nigeria and it’s only the beginning of Kofi Jamar’s dominance since he is bound to make other major moves and ‘In The City’ hit song is just a mere beginning.

Africa unite! Ice Prince brings out M.I Abaga, Sarkodie, Khaligraph Jones and Kwesta

Every artiste came prepared but of course, Khaligraph Jones bodied the entire song with his entire verse being quotable, check out the OG’s verse below.

I be repping 254
what you know about the place?
coming through with two tight flows
last time I almost caught a case
nxgga what you know about the A
you think you got what it takes
you think you got the power
to hold your ground in the planet of the apes
by the time you get up on you sit
level up triple up
yeah we are about to get off the streets
I just hit up the beast
yah Khali where you at come through
come pick up the beats
nxgga was thirsty
hiccups galore
I don’t wanna touch the sky
I wanna pickup the floor
when I felt I had to get up and walk
fell thrice, fell thrice
a nxgga had to get up some more
finally made it to 28
now I am picking it up where Pac left it
they don’t wanna see a nxgga
get check, get chedda
you wanna see a nxgga get reckless
nah nxgga
not me am an idol
and my brain is my Bible
so I drop a hot verse to rebuke
this wannabe atheist turned suicidal
am so sophisticated
yeah sophisticated
funny what the people do nowadays on IG
just to get they pictures rated
even if it means going on nake
it doesn’t matter if they really gotta fake it
you know how the game goes out here
for the money and the fame
everybody trying to make it
but me am a go-getter and I know better
getting more chedda coz am so clever
but am so fed up with these broke fellas
who be so jealous cause they no sellers
sole tracks in the cold weather
rocking old sweater in an old set up
told mom she don’t got to work
coz I grind for her and it’s forever
