AKA THE RAP GOD

AKA THE RAP GOD

AKA making his mark on hip hop world
a known fact that hip hop singer AKA whose real name is Kienan Jordan Forbes has made his mark on South African music Its industry ever sense  he released his album Alter ego on September 2011. The 27 year old old Cape Town born has proven himself to be a compatible artist not just in  South Africa but throughout the whole African continent. The hip hop guru has proven so many times that he is the rap God of South Africa by putting rap music to another level and making us proud by opening shows of the likes of Kanye West, Ric ross and  Snoop dog while they where in the country.

AKA WEST AFRICAN TOUR


His music has been well received by Africans and has earned him to go on tour in west African countries like Nigeria and Ghana on the first week of January 2015, to bless them with good music.
 Times Live He sure does deserve the spotlight he is receiving right now, considering all his hard work is paying off. I believe this artist needs to be praised for his hard work, we are tired of hearing about his beef with equally successful hip hop artist Cassper Nyovest and some people on twitter calling him arrogant. Lets just hope that the Nigerians and Ghanian's receive him well.

AKA THE MULTI-AWARD WINNER


Rap artist AKA performed at the congratulate you, Run Jozi and closed the show with his song which he collaborated with Nigerian artists Burna boy, JR& Da les titled all eyes on me which has earned him multiple nominations.This song is a killer and is my favorite If I do say so myself, AKA song by far, I found myself singing along while looking at the video first time around. I personally think he was the best artist of 2014

THIS ARE SOME OF AKA AWARDS HE RECEIVED 2014
  • SA hip hip awards:4 awards including best artist and video of the year
  • Channel O: most gifted award hip hop hip , congratulate you
All in all he has won so many awards which put him on the spot and of cause and makes him to be one of the best in South African music industry. I sure know he caught my eye, and not to mention that he is not so bad to look at. The first time he caught my attention was back in 2012 when he won SAMA awards with the likes of Zahara and hopefully, still gonna continue to do what he does best keeping us entertained, and have us begging for more. This goes to show that he's not one of those artists who burn out after releasing singles or top albums. So BIG UP TO AKA!!!
