Is Ghana the new king of drill music?

Red bandanas. Gold chains. Gang signs.

A new generation of Ghanaian drill artists has taken the music charts by storm.

Inspired by US drill and UK grime, they created “Asakaa” - Ghana’s fresh take on drill music.

Their critics say they’re making a cheap replica of American gang culture.

So what’s behind the rise of this new movement?

And how did Kumasi, Ghana’s second largest city, came to be at the heart of it all?
