Aklerh ready to take over the world with Dancehall Queen EP
Fast-rising Ghanaian McKenzie Aklerh Zebulun Ocansey has expressed her readiness to take the Dancehall space by storm.
Aklerh said she has what it takes to move the Ghanaian dancehall space to global prominence.
She made this revelation during her Dancehall Queen EP listening held last Friday at The Backyard in East Legon.
The six-track EP is made up of songs like, Dancehall Queen, “Odo,” “Bra (Gbodom),” “Kingman Ting,” and “Body Good” ft Yaw Grey.
Produced by Cashtwo and Jeph Green, the songs are a blend of her personal experiences and that of others.
Touching on her Dancehall Queen, she said her return from Nigeria was the turning point in her career, even though music had always been her childhood dream.
According to her, she encountered problems in her relationship, so upon reflection one day, her father, Ahuma Ocansey, known in the creative arts space as Daddy Bosco advised her to put what she was going through into music which she obliged.
She then followed him to Raskuuku’s EP listening and after performing, she got a wake-up call, an inspiration which birthed her Dancehall Queen EP.
She said without her label’s support, this dream would not have come to pass.
Against this backdrop, she expressed her appreciation to her label, Revolution Records and her father for their support as well as her colleagues.

Kwame Nsiah Apau, widely known as Okyeame Kwame, and the Rap Dacta, celebrated his 50th birthday with the release of a rhythmic reggae tune titled “Clap.”
The song shines a spotlight on applauding those making remarkable contributions to society and encourages people to celebrate the successes of their friends and family.
Just a week after its release, “Clap” has garnered widespread positive reactions from influencers across Ghana, Jamaica, America, South Africa, and other parts of the world.
In one of the reaction videos shared by Okyeame Kwame, renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist Richard Nii Armah Quaye, aka RNAQ, expressed his admiration, saying, “Love this song and the lyrics. I want to support its promotion with GHC 100,000. Well done.”
Okyeame Kwame, who had previously promised to build a Paediatric Emergency Ward at Manhyia Hospital in Kumasi before his birthday, would certainly benefit from this generous support for such a meaningful project.
His 50th birthday celebration was a successful all-white event held at +233 Pub and Grill, featuring amazing performances that added to the memorable occasion.
