Meanwhile, one of Eastern Region’s finest rappers, Rap Tini, mounted a big stage for his EP listening dubbed “I Have Arrived” at Nkawkaw during the same period of the EMA. Rap Tini’s program technically, prevented a lot of Kwahu artistes from attending the EMA. Was there a communication gap or it was an intentional act by both parties?
