Hip-life artiste, Ex-Doe has for the first time broken his silence on his Maba track which was said to be a response to Reggie Rockstone�s popular tag line Oseikrom President.
The Daavi Medekuku hit maker in an interview on Hitz Fm�s Showbiz Today programme hosted by Bola Ray, referred to Reggie Rockstone, the Grand Papa of hip-life�s tag line, as a �loose talk in the hip-hop world� who needed to be responded to.
According to Ex-Doe, �Hip-hop is hip-hop and you cannot change it. When you drop any loose talk, people will use it on you, you know what I mean, but it�s hip-hop. If you are living in Accra and you are saying you are Oseikrom President, it makes me feel like oh that�s a loose line��
Re-living the song in question, X-Doe rapped the first verse which served as a response to, in his own words, the �loose line� often used by the originator of hip-life.
In the lyrics of the 1999 hit song, Ex-Doe said, �Rasta wonti reggae wose wo y3 rapper.� (Rasta can�t speak reggae; you say you are a rapper). Me die menim se wo ye dancer.� (I know you are a dancer). Wose wo fre woho President wonsoa won te wo resident wanhwe a mede wo beto internet ma obiaa ate wonka. (You call yourself President; you don�t live in a residence�)
In spite of the lyrics, Ex-Doe said he had nothing against Reggie Rockstone and he sees him as a big brother.
Meanwhile, the hip-life artiste is planning a major come back onto the Ghanaian music scene and urged his fans to expect something new from him.
Ex-Doe�s music career gained prominence after his famous beef with his friend, Chicago, over who owned the hit song, Daavi Mede kuku released in the late 1990s.
