Ghanaian hiplife storyteller Koo Ntakra joins forces with rap heavyweight Strongman on this hard-hitting new track called “Problem” .
The song arrives at a time when fans have been hungry for raw bars and real street energy. So this collaboration feels like a direct answer to those who have waited years to hear these two on the same record.
The history between these artists makes this release even more interesting. Both men emerged from reality TV shows, with Strongman winning GH Next HipHop Star and Koo Ntakra taking the MTN Hitmaker crown . Fans spent years comparing them and even speculated about a rivalry. But the pair shut down those rumours back in 2016, calling each other brothers on social media . Now “Problem” proves they work better together than against each other.
The beat carries a heavy drill influence with deep bass and crisp percussion . Yet the production leaves enough room for both MCs to flex their skills without feeling crowded. Koo Ntakra opens with his signature Akuapem flow, throwing clever wordplay from the very first line . Strongman then steps in with his fast-paced Twi delivery and sharp proverbs. The result sounds less like a battle and more like two champions trading verses with mutual respect.
This record follows their earlier “Rap Lesson” series, where they dropped no-hook, strictly hardcore raps . “Problem” continues that tradition but adds a darker, more aggressive edge. Both artists address street credibility and industry obstacles, making the track feel personal and urgent . The chemistry between them is undeniable, and the song captures why Ghanaian rap still thrives when the lyricism stays sharp.
