Hip hop heat is on the rise as Ghana’s music scene witnesses the latest exchange of fiery lyrics between Ypee and Oseikrom Sikanii, sparked by the release of Alaye Geng’s new drill anthem, “Money Soon”. The track dropped like a bombshell on October 18, 2023, and has since been setting the charts ablaze with its explosive beats and controversial verses.
Ypee, the award-winning rapper who’s been entangled in a longstanding beef with fellow lyrical heavyweight Oseikrom Sikanii, took a swing with well-crafted words in his guest verse on the track.
