Time for conscious music – KNii Lante
Ghanaian singer/songwriter KNii Lante is a gifted musician whose music could be described in a diverse number of ways. But no matter the genre of music that he chooses to do, his identity as an African, both in terms of his appearance and the treatment to his rhythms, always shines through as is evident is his new single, ‘Lagos to Vienna’. The feel-good afro-pop infusion is a colourful celebration of life, and the video depicts how Africans can have fun no matter where they find themselves.
‘Lagos to Vienna’ is taken from his upcoming debut album, ‘Love and Revolution’. The 16-track album is an interesting mix of different genres of music, addressing various issues, with lyrics mainly in English and a couple of songs in Ga as well. Although KNii Lante has been in Ghanaian music industry for years, adding his vocals to several hit songs such as Michael Dwamena’s ‘Ngozi’ and Blakk Rasta’s ‘Barrack Obama’, he is yet to enjoy the same success as a solo act. » Read more…
