Ace Ghanaian sound engineer and artiste manager, Da Hammer has disclosed that it was boring to listen to Hiplife musician Tinny rapped in Twi when was coming up.
Nii Addo Quaynor, popularly known as Tinny, started off his music career as a rapper who delivered his lines in the Twi dialect in the early 2000s.
However, one of the producers to give him exposure, Da Hammer of the Last Two, was not impressed with his flow in the aforementioned language, knowing very well the rapper was a Ga by birth.
“Tinny also fell victim to that Twi stigma, the status quo… he had to break it because everybody was rapping in Twi. Ga wasn’t popular so nobody wanted to risk it. So he himself as a Ga, he didn’t want to rap in Ga,” Hammer of the Last Two stated on a radio station in Accra.
