KOJO VYPA pays Homage to Ebony reigns in *SOCIETY* – track 6 off his BIG DAWSON EP.

February being the month of love is also known for being the month that took one of the biggest music stars in Ghana to her grave. The highly rated female Dancehall artiste – Ebony Reigns met her demise on 8th February, 2018 whilst returning from Sunyani to Accra after a visit to her mother. She died eight days before her 21st birthday. Her assistant and longtime friend Franklina Yaa Nkansah Kuri and soldier Atsu Vondee were also killed in the fatal accident. The only survivor of the crash was the driver named Phinehas.

Ghanaians always use the day 8th February to mark the death of our superstar who was highly expected to break into the world music with her unmatched talent.

For this reason the renowned rapper Desmond Prince Owusu known for his fearsome rap dexterity and flow on his debut Extended Play titled BIG DAWSON, which was released on 1st February, 2024 after a classic listening/launch party at Lemon Lounge in Cape Coast decided to pay homage to Ebony Reigns in one of the songs on the EP.

In the last verse of his track 6 – SOCIETY on the Extended Play that is making waves in the country, he paid a homage to the unforgotten Dancehall Queen – *Priscilla Opoku-Kwarteng* popularly known by her stage name Ebony Reigns.

These are the words of Kojo Vypa and I quote;

This be the society we live in 

Wo dze enyiwa si wo ho ah onnkyɛr ɛbɛgye box

 

Nana Hemaa rest peace 

In fact, you were queen indeed 

Society nor wey they kill you we know but soon we go meet 

Monster !

Ebony your death was a big blow to all Ghanaians and you’ll forever remain in our hearts.

REST IN PERFECT PEACE EBONY REIGNS.
