The sound of the city
Accra was home to E.T. Mensah, the "King of Highlife", whose Tempos band popularised dance-band highlife across West Africa. In the 1990s hiplife, which blends highlife with hip-hop, took shape in Ghana with Reggie Rockstone among its pioneers, and the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation has its headquarters in Accra. Ghanaian radio, highlife radio and Afrobeats radio go further.
