Blakk Rasta confesses love for Ghana no matter what

Kuchoko Legend, Blakk Rasta has released a new single called, My Dear Ghana to the admiration and awe of many who know the firebrand artiste for his brazen critique of the political system.

In this new single, Blakk Rasta sings the praises of a beautiful land, tracing its greatness from the Ghana Empire through to the present day.

Some of the names mentioned, like Paul Cuffe, Dinga Cissé, and Nanny, may sound new to the average Ghanaian, but, a careful study would unravel the wonderful contributions these legendary individuals gave to Ghana.

My Dear Ghana is rendered in Blakk Rasta's comfortable Reggae beat, very steady and calm. The melody is very infectious. You would find yourself singing the song before you realise it.

"Ghana is my land

I cannot deny it

No matter where I go

I comma comma yard" Blakk Rasta sings, confessing his love for Ghana no matter how wicked 'politicians' continue to treat citizens badly.

The music comes with an ecstatic video to boot. It carefully samples very landmarks all over Ghana to show how beautiful the land is.

My Dear Ghana is an anthem and a powerful tool to market the country that has been calling tourists to visit.
