M.anifest Biography
Born in Accra, Ghana, M.anifest is an award-winning artist known for lyricism and intriguing sonic
hybrids of African popular music and Hip Hop.
M.anifest is the grandson of the late Prof. J.H Nketia, one of the leading ethnomusicologists and
composers in Africa. His grandfather’s dedication, passion and commitment to composing music
had a profound impact on M.anifest, and is a source of inspiration in the ways M.anifest crafts his
particular blend of music.
M.anifest’s vision is to humanize Africans and the wider Diaspora, often bringing characters and
stories from the margins into focus. His music is layered: emotionally evocative, dope and modern.
He has been a consistent and evolving force in the African popular music scene with an impressive
list of global collaborators such as Burna Boy, Vic Mensa, Tiggs Da Author, Simi, Erykah Badu,
Damon Albarn (Gorillaz), Kojey Radical, Juls, Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Tony Allen and more.
His fifth full length album, Madina To The Universe (MTTU) was released in November 2021.
