Kunta Kinte's rise and music hiatus

Kunta Kinte gained prominence in the Ghanaian music industry in the late 2000s as part of the Bradez music group alongside his brother, Flowking Stone.

The music duo took over the airwaves and scored commercial success with their single, One Gallon, which featured their elder brother and veteran rapper, Okyeame Kwame.

Following their entry into the industry, Bradez often collaborated with artistes from Lynx Entertainment including rapper Asem and Richie Mensah. The duo later released their biggest song, Simple which earned them the Most Popular Song of the Year accolade at the 2009 Ghana Music Awards event.

The group's rise to the top of the Ghanaian music industry suffered a huge setback as Kunta Kinte, who graduated from the University of Ghana, Legon with a degree in Social Science, suffered a severe stroke at age 21 which left him bedridden for a long time.

The rapper's health challenge also reportedly affected his memory which affected his ability to write or perform music. The challenges also led to his brother, Flowking Stone pursuing a successful solo music career from 2009.

In 2022, Kunta Kinte announced that he had recovered from his health battles and made a music comeback with his song, San Bra which featured former Sarkcess Music record label signee, Strongman Burner.

In a December 2024 interview on Fakye TV, the rapper opened up about his 15-year battle with the stroke and recounted how it affected him.
