Our weekly segment Submission Sundays features the new Sound of Kalima-produced single “Broke.Dream.Fix” by Vancouver-based Ghanaians recording artist, Ekke.
“Ekke makes use of clever word play, exploration of dark & exaggerated themes, hyperbole and complex rhyme schemes to paint pictures and tell stories.”
Born in Accra, Ghana, Ekke moved with his family to New Jersey, where he lived from ages 4-7. Returning to Ghana by age 8, he grew up changing schools and moving houses all around Accra. He came to Canada in 2010 to attend the University of British Columbia, graduating with a Bachelor of Commerce from the UBC Sauder School of Business in 2015.
“Initially rapping under the moniker Palendroam, Ekke honed his craft writing original lyrics over popular beats before transitioning into production and creation of entirely original material.”
