The surge of a hero - Lexikon

Lexikon Baanfire play videoLexikon Baanfire

Lexikon Baanfire is one name that has gradually become a household name in the music fraternity as far as reggae and dancehall music is concerned.

Known for his depth, clarity, indigeneity and a unique voice and stagecraft, Lexikon has been consistent in his delivery entreating us to great songs like Shotta Killah, Tear Drop, Mama, Kofi Annan etc. with the latest titled 'I Burn' all on the 'Confrontation' album.

William Bramwell Koufie as originally named,
Lexikon's music style and pattern is top-notch and of a worldwide appeal and is one of the best this country has ever had and a great potential export for Ghana which could measure up to the likes of Sizzla, Buju Banton, Movado etc. on the world platform. Couldn't agree more until after listening to his songs.

The 'B A A N F I R E' President (Born An African Nation For Inner Renewal & Empowerment) seeks to educate, inspire and motivate the youth to achieve even in the face of toilsome circumstances through music. He thinks he's the new face of reggae and dancehall music in Ghana and Africa at large though he acknowledges the efforts of his predecessors... "I'm taking reggae and dancehall music to another whole level"...he quizzed!

Lexikon hails from Cape Coast and is a proud product of Mfantsipim School
He's also a member of 'The Chartered Institute of Marketing-UK, an entrepreneur and is married with kids.
