Yaw Tog - Time (EP)

Breakthrough Ghanaian rapper Yaw Tog releases his highly anticipated debut 7-track EP, ‘TIME’.

Following on from the ingenious remix of ‘Sore’ featuring Stormzy and Kwesi Arthur, the 17-year-old now finds himself at the centre of the West African Drill and Hip-Hop movement. Born Thorsten Owusu Gyimah, Yaw Tog became a young prodigy overnight with the original video for ‘Sore’ being the first within the genre to reach over one million views organically, making waves across the world. Featuring members of the Asaaka​ boys collective (O’Kenneth, City Boy, Reggie, Jay Bhad), ‘Sore’ fittingly translates to ‘Rise’.

On his debut project Yaw Tog worked with a tight group of producers including Doosis, Khendibeatz, Chris Rich and DG Production. Collectively they built a chemistry that complimented Yaw Tog’s vision of portraying his life, reflecting on themes of brotherhood, growth, and struggle whilst capturing the true essence of Kumerica.
