Kobi Onyame is a 27 year old Ghanaian/UK based Hip Hop producer/artist. He describes his music as a fusion of his life's influences, circumstances and changes.



"I love that I am able to express myself through music. I grew up listening to a lot of Hip Hop but heard gospel and highlife from my parents and also pop, rock and dance from my friends."



2009 saw Kobi move from strength to strength. Playing a range of shows ranging from intimate venues such as London's legendary Jazz Cafe to gracing the BBC Introducing Stage at Glastonbury Festival. In recent times, he has also shared the bill with music greats including KanYe West, Akon, De La Soul, Sway, Flo Rida, Wiley and more.



The release of his single "He Said She Said" featuring UK rap heavyweight Sway saw Kobi's industry awareness increase, with support from DJ's Semtex, MistaJam, Shortee Blitz, Ras Kwame, Vic Galloway, Jim Gellatly, DJ Black and more. Furthermore, radio stations such as BBC Radio 1Xtra, Radio 1 (Regional) have supported his music.



2010 is the year Kobi pushes for national recognition and success. He is working on a forthcoming EP entitled "A Possible Strength In An Actual Weakness".
