Ghanaian rapper‑turned‑reggae‑storyteller Amerado (Derrick Sarfo Kantanka) has just released Pharaoh, a smooth and reflective track that sees him embracing spiritual liberation while shedding life’s vices.
Fresh off the success of his recent singles, Pharaoh adds a profound dimension to his creative journey.
Departing from the punchy hip‑hop flair typical of his sound, Amerado leans into mellow reggae rhythms to deliver candid lyrics about shedding sadness, stress, overthinking, smoking, drinking, and chasing women. He likens these burdens to the tyranny of a “Pharaoh,” emphasizing how he’s broken free from them . The result is a contemplative soundscape that invites listeners to journey toward self‑liberation.
Amerado’s verses unpack a spiritual awakening:Casting off negative habits („smoking, drinking, chasing women”). Mental rebirth by confronting internal turmoil emerging stronger, positioned to live intentionally.
This underscores Amerado’s signature balance: local language fluency mixed with universal messaging. It’s more than a catchy tune—it’s an invitation to self-improvement.
Pharaoh cements this progression—Amerado is as comfortable delivering punchlines as he is sparking introspection.
Pharaoh is Amerado’s proclamation of liberation—a personal battle cry set to feel-good reggae. It’s proof that growth can groove, and healing can hum. For fans of conscious music, this one’s essential.
Expect more layers from Amerado as he continues to traverse new musical terrains.
