Ghanaian rap veteran M.anifest links up with O’Kenneth and wavypae on “ON TEN,” a fresh hip-hop collaboration.
Released through Mass Appeal and Singitdamnit Music, “M.anifest ON TEN” brings together three distinct approaches to Ghanaian music on one record. M.anifest leads with his usual sharp, controlled lyrical delivery. O’Kenneth then injects the raw energy tied to Kumasi’s Asakaa movement. wavypae rounds things out with a more modern melodic touch. So three different generations and styles meet here without any single voice crowding out the others.
English, Twi, and Pidgin all move through the track as the three artists build their message around hard work and consistency. Rather than making excuses, “ON TEN” pushes listeners to stay focused and back their own ability with real action. That kind of straightforward motivational core still fits naturally within a hip-hop foundation, since the beat leaves enough space for each artist to shine individually.
M.anifest has built his reputation on exactly this kind of cross-generational pairing throughout his catalogue. Working with artists from different backgrounds isn’t new territory for him, and O’Kenneth’s street-influenced style gives the record a noticeably younger feel next to M.anifest’s more seasoned pen game.
Give “ON TEN” a listen and tell us which artist’s verse stood out most to you.
