Ghanaian rapper Kwesi Arthur is known for crafting insightful hip-hop songs about social issues in his native country. Last week, he released the much awaited second volume of his "Live From Nkrumah" series titled "Home Run".

Recorded live at the Nkrumah Circle in Kumasi, Ghana, the 9 track album continued Arthur's tradition of capturing raw, powerful performances in front of local fans. Produced by duo MohBad, the lively afrobeats-inspired instrumentals provided the perfect backdrop for Arthur's honest lyricism.

Standout tracks include "Winning" featuring KiDi which gets an infectious beat driving the upbeat message of triumph over adversity. "Brown Paper Bag" tackles colorism in African society over a thoughtful melody.

On "Activate" featuring Omar Sterling, Arthur flexes his multilingual skills, switching effortlessly between English, Twi and Pidgin. The smooth "Celeb" finds him professing his love for his partner.

Capping off the live album experience is the rousing finale "Akokono Te Brofo" that brings the energetic Kumasi crowd fully into the performance.

With "Home Run", Kwesi Arthur proves he remains one of the leading voices of a vibrant new generation of African rappers. By sharing these unpolished live takes directly from the Motherland, he pays homage to hip-hop's grassroots origins while pushing the genre forward. Fans can't wait to see what he has in store for the next "Live From Nkrumah" drop.
