He has battled more than 20 MC’s on several shows called and kicked out each of the MC’s which is judged by the listening public. KANTANKA aka Rap Monopolist, after a long stay in the underground, no doubt that he has become one of hiplife household cultural stigma in recent times by dropping 2 of the hottest mixtape in Ghana right now, ‘Adult music’ remix and the new single ‘Check ya money’ feat Rap Biochemist and GMA winner Flowking Stone of Bradez fame, turning up in one of the most talk about Easter to Christmas festive events, from bilingual hood battles to Studio to inter and intra battle competition nationwide.

His goal is to let you enjoy what he is spitting out. Ironically, the approach to his first album is to set aside all the movement in the hiplife industry and free him of any pre-conceived notion as to what his song should sound like.’




The studios are where I feel most official’ says KANTANKA. I realized you can’t worry about what you did last year or the troubles out there. I tell the ’Beat maker’ lets just do it. You have to get into the mind frame where you’re not trying to out-do yourself and not trying to sound like someone else but yourself. The studio is where I find my peace.

He has worked with artistes like Bradez, Cabum, Lousika, Okyeame Kwame, Atumpan and the list goes on and on. His album coming soon though has already had an unconcealed album before.
