“The biggest achievement of hiplife is the employment, it has created jobs. Without hip life I don’t know what some of these would have been doing. It brought a lot of employment, from radio, television, it’s affected everything. If hip life didn’t come like Jay Z and the rest won’t come to Ghana. It’s created jobs, today Sarkodie can be on a billboard. It has created a lot of avenues for the young to express themselves”

He added :

“Apart from that it’s hip life we use to entertain ourselves in town, we dance with it at parties and other places. Music is food for the soul so we are feeding the soul”
