Ghanaian rapper, Elorm Adablah, known in showbiz circles as EL, has revealed that his new song, dubbed, “Still papping” which is the first off his upcoming album, slated for next year, is a Christmas song.
EL believes that Christmas is a festive season for people to make merry after a long year of hustle and bustle, adding that ‘Still papping’ has what it takes to get people into the party mood in the Yuletide.
According to him, a lot of singles would be released before the end of 2020, to pave way for the official release of his much anticipated new album.
“This is the first song of my album dropping in 2021, I will be releasing a couple of singles, so all my fans should watch out,” EL said.
Speaking to The Spectator, he said, “Still papping” produced by Pee GH was a song which came with a lot of energy to get people on the dance floor.
“When you want to make a song, you try and get into the mood, so that the song would be accepted the way you want, this song has a lot of energy that will get you onto the dance floor” he said.
EL said that all he wanted to say in the song was that regardless of the challenges coronavirus caused, people were still having fun, and would not be perturbed.
Touching on the challenges of the coronavirus, he said it has dealt the industry a big blow, however, he believed that there have been some positive lessons which would be learnt from the unfortunate situation.
“We haven’t had enough leeway to manoeuvre, but there is always a silver lining in such circumstances which could be used for our benefit,” He said.
EL has produced a lot of hit songs over the years, and in 2016, he won the Overall Artiste of the Year award at the Vodafone Ghana Music Award (VGMA).

Organisers of Rhythms On Da Runway have announced November 28, 2026 as the date for the 16th edition of the event, to be held at the Palms Convention Centre.
This year’s edition, themed: ‘UNBOUND: Because You’ve Got Style’, is focused on breaking barriers in fashion and creating space for all.
According to the Chief Executive Officer of Nineteen57 Events, Shirley Emma Tibilla, affectionately called Cookie Tee, the focus of this edition is to give everyone an opportunity to express themselves without barriers.
She told The Spectator that as a leading fashion brand in the country and beyond, they want to open doors for people regardless of their colour, size and abilities among others.
Described by the BBC as “the biggest cultural exposé in Africa,” Rhythms On Da Runway returns this year as a celebration of fashion, music and individual expression without limits.
Organisers say for years fashion has been shaped by narrow ideas of who belongs on the runway, with certain body types, ages and abilities placed at the centre while many others are left out. UNBOUND seeks to open that picture.
This year’s runway will welcome people with different abilities, backgrounds, body types and personal stories. The theme will influence model casting, the collections, the stories told through the clothes and the way guests experience the event.
Beyond the runway, ‘Unbound’ will create room for young people to learn from established designers, gain practical experience and explore careers within fashion and the wider creative industry.
It will also open conversations around adaptive fashion, accessible event design, talent discovery, mentorship and employment.
The 2026 edition will bring together fashion designers and music stars from Ghana and across the African diaspora, with strong collections, live performances and an all-star cast of celebrity models.
The event will also feature the Black Star Awards, which will honour public figures shaping Africa’s future through leadership and contributions to the continent’s Orange Economy.
Organisers say the list of participating designers, performing artists, award recipients and other event details will be announced in the coming weeks.

Veteran Ghanaian gospel musician Bernice Offei has passed on Saturday August 12, 2026.
She was 63.
The news of her demise flashed through social media on Saturday, prompting an outpouring of grief from musicians, fans and members of the Christian community, who have since paid tribute to her distinguished career.
She gained strong reputation as a singer, songwriter and minister whose music transcended generations.
Some of her popular songs include ‘Kaa She Gbeyei,’ ‘It’s By Grace,’ ‘Nyame Kokroko’ and ‘N’adom Ara Kwa.’
Her contribution to the growth of gospel music in Ghana was recognised in 2009 when she won the Best Female Vocal Performance and Songwriter of the Year awards at the Ghana Music Awards, now known as the Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
Beyond music, Mrs Offei distinguished herself in academia and professional life. She attended Achimota School before earning an MPhil in Crop Science from the University of Ghana and a Master’s Degree in Information Technology from University College London in the United Kingdom.
Mrs Offei was married to Prof. Samuel Kwame Offei, a former Pro-Vice Chancellor of the University of Ghana, and the couple had two children.
Her death comes days after she was reported missing but was later found safe.
Mrs Offei leaves behind a rich music legacy that continues to inspire faith, hope and resilience among generations of listeners. -GNA
