Marince Omario, The Nappy haired hero

Marince is a Ghanaian musical creative born and raised in a traditional Ga home in the neighborhood of Official Town.
His new EP titled Tsotsoo, released on the 13th of October 2020, was inspired by his late grandmother. All the songs touch on past experiences, along with teachings and wisdom, passed onto him by his grandmother.
Before the release of the Tsotsoo EP, he has kept busy with other projects such as the Seventh Faith in May 2017. The album featured award-winning artiste Kuami Eugene, who delivers vocals on the song, “Not To Be Blamed.”
Earlier this year, he dropped Oblitey, building a reputation for himself as a consistent storyteller through his style of music.
SONGS, TITLES, AND MEANINGS:
Mkpai is the first track off the Tsotsoo project. Mkpai, which in Ga means libation, is his way of giving thanks to God and the ancestors of the Ga land.
Gbonyo Party: On this track, Marince reminisces about a girl he saw crying at a funeral but dancing seductively at a party the next day. This incident stems from the practice of holding festivities in memory of the deceased the day after the burial.
Seke features rapper, The Art. Here, he talks about his fantasy to take a village girl abroad and spoil her with lavish a lifestyle. Growing up, he would visit his granny, who then lived in a small town called Opa. He was amazed at how polite and communicative the girls were and vowed to give them a great life once he could.
Koti: This features rapper Berd. Marince talks about numerous encounters with the police for the way he wears his hair. In the song, he touches on some issues that men of his caliber face because of their dreadlocks, Afro’s, and even sometimes, cornrows.
The message is to instill in young men know that they can do whatever they want to in life, despite their hair type.
Give It Back: Moved by his grandmother’s generosity and willingness to give back, Marince aims to do whatever he can to give back to as much as he can.
