Hiplife artiste, Michael Kwabena Okyere Darko who is popularly known as Obrafour says he prefers to be called Rap Sofo to already known name Obrafour.Â
The renowned rapper in an interview with Franky 5 on HitzFM's ‘This Is Gospel’ show, revealed that people should now call him ‘Rap Sofo’.
Obrafour now Rap Sofo who rose to fame with his album titled ‘Pae Mu Ka’ in 1999, has decided to drop his stage name most people identify him with.
“Now I wouldn’t want to be called Obrafour anymore. I am saying this for the first time here,†the rapper said.
Franky 5 asked why he decided to let go of the name ‘Obrafour’ and stick to ‘Rap Sofo’, he stated that he was divinely influenced to use the latter name.
“I don’t know. There is something pushing me. I have said that I wouldn’t want to do anything in my own will and accord but wait to hear the voice of God,†he added.
The rapper also revealed that the Twi word ‘sofo’, which means Pastor has had an effect on him ever since the accolade ‘Rap Sofo’ was added to his stage name, ‘Obrafour’.
He also indicated that he chose the name ‘Obrafour’, which means executioner, at the beginning of his career, though he had first been referred to as ‘Rap Sofo’ because he wanted to sanitise Hiplife music.
