HIP LIFE
Legendary group VVIP was birthed in the year 2014. A historical merger
between the Godfather of Hiplife Reggie Rockstone, Zeal (Hamid Ibrahim)
and Prodigal (Joseph Nana Ofori) of the group VIP.
Showing the world
that they were indeed veterans and with about 2 decades of experience,
they almost immediately released their first single, SELFIE which was a
hit almost immediately. The track revolutionarised and made known the
picture taking mode known as selfie through out the whole country. The
video remix featured the Hollywood superstar Idris Elba. Prior to the
legendary merger of the 2 formidable forces, VIP (Vision in Progress)
revolutionized the genre of Hiplife music with the energetic party vibe
they brought to the music scene, and by blending musical influences from
highlife, hiphop and traditional African music, they became one of the
most innovative musicians of the genre.
