The lines have been drawn, the mike is hot and speakers have been checked us Ghana’s most celebrated urban radio station YFM is set to thrill Ghana with its rap reality talent show “Rapture”.

After a successful listening session and screening of over 800 entries from across the country, the rapture team has selected some artistic rappers for the quarter-finals of the talent show.

These eight rappers will clash in a one-on-one battle to prove their salt and either ends their Rapture journey or move on to the next stage of the competition, drawing closer to wearing the crown.

The battle which will be live on YFM’s after drive show, “Dryve of Your Lyfe” will see Scream and Kofi Kunta open up the stage on Wednesday, July 14, 2021, and Gaiseboi going head to head against Konfidential on Friday, July 16, 2021.

In the week after, Reload Gh will face off with Joshua the Greatest on Wednesday, July 21, 2021, and the last quarter-final battle taking place on Friday, July 23, 2021, between Ananse Tac and Daud.

The pair of 4 met with the Programmes Manager of Y107.9FM-Accra, Eddy Blay Jnr who took them through the technicalities of the Rapture reality talent show. He shared, “the only rule you must not break is the clean rule. Make sure your flow is clean, otherwise everything is fair game.”
