I feel music has to educate people too, be it English language, Twi, French, or whatsoever. So if you happen to always need a dictionary before you can understand his lyrics, that's just normal and it's called education... it's not something out of this world. I sometimes listen to some Twi songs over and over before I get the words, and I sometimes have to ask older people for some of the meanings of the words and lines. And oh, what is "big vocabulary"? To somebody who has heard a word like humuhumunukunukuapaa, if I used it in a chat with them, they would not be surprised and say it's big vocab, because they know it. So imagine somebody telling you that a word like "astonish" is a big vocab simply because they have not heard it before or do not understand it. I think we should rather say, that, Manifest challenges people to expand their lexicons, and not that he uses big vocabs. Big vocabulary is a subjective matter because a word you call big vocab might be a well known and used word to another. By the way, shoutouts to the man M.dot, he should know I'm his godfan and feel he's the best rapper on the continent. I'd die for him anytime. Similar knowledgeable artiste: Jacob Lee. Mad❤
Hip-Hop has evolved over so many years. The competitive bravado of the pioneers who led the movement issued from the longing to learn and be better in order to beat the next man with the "wildest flow(grammar,slang jargon)" . But of late, the abuse of certain slangs et al have turn so many people off especially the old folks leading to the culture being put in a bad light. Thankfully, however, we have cats like M.anifest,E.L,Kojo cue(name them) who are moderate and circumspect with the use of the language such that people get to appreciate the true of Hip-Hop; to spread love, build peace and extend the frontiers of literacy.
@@hopeetornam4286 What is the nature of the said abuse? And, what slangs specifically, would be standard and in line with the vision of the pioneers? I am tempted to believe that the abuse you are talking about may be in cases where there's too much explicitness as well as wrong consumers.
@@weirdodewizard6660 With the slang & jargon, that was somewhat lyrical (coined by the MCs themselves, often the case). to mean or describe something in a certain context. But as the culture evolved some of them took it too far( the aggression, prevalence and repetitiveness of cuss words littered on a single record), leaving little or no room for clean instructive rhymes.
Most Ghanaians pretend to be fans of rap. Most just want "some thing" for fan that's all, yet are eager and quick to talk about what's a better rap and what's not.
M.anifest truly is a word smith on another level. You certainly get food for thought on each track he dishes out. Ghana should be Proud for having someone like him pioneering Hiphop. ❤❤

Language is just a tool. And like every tool, it must be mastered. Every language is multilayered.
Wow... This session was in itself very educative. Manifest is a true God MC and his songs are evident of this fact.
God Bless His Talent.

Ghana should be Proud for having someone like him pioneering Hiphop.

This man (M.anifest) and Lyrical Joe are different kind of rappers. You can enjoy the melody but if you are interested, you can learn the lesson too.
