Genesis Owusu doesn't play by the rules. Not of genre, of dress, or expectations.
The Ghanaian-born, Australia-based singer and rapper Kofi Owusu-Ansah released his highly anticipated second album, Struggler. Like his debut record, Smiling With No Teeth, Struggler blends genres effortlessly, moving from rock, to funk and hip hop with a tinge of pop.
A personal aside, I had the chance to see Genesis Owusu perform a short set earlier this year and it was one of the most exciting shows I've seen in awhile. The energy that exuded from the stage matched the talent, which was HIGH with star-level charisma to boot.
Check out Struggler, KAXE's featured Album of the Week.
