Okyeame Kwame’s “No Competition” featured in UniMAC End-of-Semester Exams
Celebrated Ghanaian Musician, Okyeame Kwame’s hit music video for “No Competition,” featuring Kuami Eugene, has received notable academic recognition as it was featured in the end-of-semester exams at the University of Media Arts and Communication-Institute of Journalism (UniMAC).
The video also served as part of the study material for the African Anthropology class this semester, highlighting its role in showcasing African cultural values in the global era.
Students from the African Anthropology class were tasked with analyzing the music video to explore how it reflects and preserves African heritage amidst modern influences.
This academic integration underscores Okyeame Kwame’s significant impact on both contemporary media and cultural education.
Expressing his joy and appreciation, the celebrated wordsmith took to social media to share his excitement about being part of the academic curriculum.
In his post, Okyeame Kwame praised UniMAC for incorporating his work into their studies, celebrating the opportunity to contribute to cultural education through his artistry.
The inclusion of “No Competition” in academic assessments not only celebrates Okyeame Kwame’s contributions but also demonstrates the relevance of his music in scholarly discourse.
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.
