The addition of Kakraba—praised for his rich harmonies, stage presence, and versatility—is expected to enhance the group’s signature sound and deepen their vocal textures.

Band leader and lead singer Kojo Agyeman welcomed the new member warmly, stating, “Richard brings a unique warmth to our music. His experience, humility, and musical instincts align perfectly with what Sankofa stands for. Our fans will feel the difference.”

Richard Mensah Kakraba began his music career performing in local churches and cultural festivals. Over the years, he has developed a unique vocal style rooted in gospel, soul, and traditional Ghanaian music. His rise to prominence came through a series of viral online covers and collaborations with indie artists, earning him attention from producers and live bands across the country.

The two-year deal includes commitments to live performances, studio recordings, and international appearances, with Kakraba also expected to contribute to songwriting and vocal arrangements.

“This song is personal,” Kojo Lap explains.

“It’s for anyone who’s ever felt misunderstood or forced to move at someone else’s pace. Sometimes, the best thing you can do for yourself is to slow down and find your own rhythm.”
