Produced by Gafacci, GHOST is laced on a hard-hitting symphony of bass, 808s, synths, and high-hats which provide the perfect canvass for X.O`s re-emergence. The hook, which is in Twi and translates to “one who`s ghost refuses to agree that you`re dead” is simply eery, and befits the song title.
But the ante is upped when X.O, who represented Nigeria in the BET cypher, flexes his linguistic muscle rapping in Fante, and both Asante and Akuapem Twi for the first time ever. And throughout it all, El Presidente is pulling no punches with this one. No more Mister Nice Guy.
After Oluwadele ft Efya, and Coptic`s Real Niggaz along with Sarkodie last year, Mr. Senavoe went ghost on us, reportedly to dabble in other interests like Law. But if this is, as he says, just the start to a cascade of new music coming our way, then the absence was well worth the wait.
“I got a Barretta for all Barrettis to my Empire, Loaded Luxes for these Calicoes/All first verse, but you ”˜gon get this work` in a landslide, when I pull up like your pantyhose”. Smack!
