According to the 3Music Awards 2022 Best Rapper of the Year, he has had a good year with Grace featuring Lasmid and Back To Sender and he is very confident the album will increase his relevance in the music space.
Born Derrick Sarfo Kantanka, Amerado revealed he will also be introducing a new genre called Afrorap.
“As we acknowledge Afropop for setting the pace, I strongly ascertain that an introduction of an African rap genre dubbed Afrorap can perform massively well on the global market. Just like we have Afrobeats, Afrodance etc, Afrorap is just a fusing of rap with Afro,” he said.
Since breaking onto the music scene in 2018, Amerado has been adding up to his collections with good tunes such as Twa So, Box Of Memories, I Am, Format, Juju, Taxi Driver, Redemption, Don’t Call Me King, Best Rapper, Lockoff, Indelible Flow among others.
