Former Ghana News Agency’s (GNA) reporter, George Darko, known in music circles as Dee J and one of Ghana’s most promising hiplife/hip-hop sensations, has officially released his much-anticipated song titled ‘Omiefu’.

The song, produced by Ragoon Beatz with great vocals by Kay Spunky, describes the rap skills of the musician as one of the best among his colleague musicians who are making waves on the music scene.

According to the former GNA reporter, he hopes to build a vibrant music industry with his act and promote unity among Ghanaian artistes, adding that he loves to play with words to address issues in the society.

He hinted that he has a dream of selling Ghanaian music, particularly hiplife and hip-hop, in an entirely different dimension to the rest of the music world.

The Madina-born rapper who started his music at a very tender age was groomed by Mic Check Recordz, and has since 2014 recorded a number of singles as a solo artiste, including the new banger ‘Omiefu’.

Dee J has also worked with artistes like Mz Gold and YungSoul, Koo Ntakra, Belce, Kwame Seseben, Kay Spunky, among many others.
