He says rap battles allow participants to showcase their talent more creatively and diversely.
He spoke to YEN.com.gh about the topic:
"Healthy competition is key in every industry, whether sports, music or movie. It helps bring out the best in the individuals involved. So in as much people see 'beefs' as just some sort of entertainment, it's a reflection of how a farmer sharpens his swords for his daily work. Beef helps, but too much doesn't.
