A new kid on the Ghanaian music scene,
Agyemang Kofi Offeh, aka Nino, would soon unleash a collection of soul
inspiring, heart warming, thrilling, and danceable songs on a album that
promises to take this country by storm.
Nino currently has two
tracks, Madamfo Pa and Fa no saa, ready to hit the airwaves, and both
songs have the master touch of the magic fingers of Morris D Voice,
whose mastery in the art is evidenced in uncountable hits from the camp
of the Rap Dacta’s One Mike Entertainment among others.
The new
kid, Nino, tells Adom Entertainment News his new album, titled ‘Rain n
Water’, was well planned and packaged to suit the taste of lovers of all

genres of music, ranging from palm wine to Opera.
But Nino
himself exhibits proficiency in Jazz, R&B, Hip-life, High-life,
Acappella, Choral and other music genres on the album and on stage – and
he sings proficiently in English, Twi and French.
“With so many
people making all sorts of music in Ghana, from Gospel through
High-life, Neo-cultural to Hip-life, it is very difficult for the few
exceptionally talented ones to get noticed,” said Nino
