The guys from #ACertainRapPodcast are back with another episode and this one features the "kpokpo o body" hit maker, Gafacci. The conversation moves from Drumroll's controversial tweet to Nigerians stealing Ghanaian music waves.

Bread9fe admits he hates azonto music and Joey hates how much Juls and Sarkodie featured a lot of Nigerians on their respective albums.

Also Gafacci tells us his problem with Sarkodie, how to own your own music and also his new partnership with B Brave called Joowa (which means dance harder).

Enjoy!
