For Mr Eazi, this Ghanaian style belongs to him and he won’t be having other artistes who “know nothing about Ghana” claim it.

The ‘Leg Over’ singer who appeared as a guest on Reggae Recipe with Ras Kwame on UK’s online radio, Capital Xtra spoke on Ghanaian influences on his music, how fast he’s grown in so little time and then went on to throw shots at other Nigerian singers.
