As a young talent with much vibrancy,
rapper and hip-life artiste was the choice of the new hip-life revolution when
he emerged on the scene. What set him apart was his tongue twisting style which
undoubtedly won him much admiration.
With his debut Wonie album under his
belt, the young Quata Budukusu defied the odds to gain national recognition for
his art and it is not surprising that he is still regarded as one of the best
things to have happened the Hip-life fraternity.
Jacob Kwame Etroo, musically known as
Quata Budukusu a.k.a Qtee was born on June 4th, 1981 to Mr. Robert Kojo Etroo
and Mrs. Comfort Ama Duku Etroo. He was raised in Cantonment Switch Backroad,
Accra. His father hails from Agona Swedru and his mother from Abura Aseebu, all
in the Central Region of Ghana. Quata Budukusu has seven (7) sisters and two
brothers.
He had his basic education at Airport
Police Primary and JSS, Accra, and continued at Aggrey Memorial Senior High
School in Cape Coast where he studied Agriculture Science (Animal Husbandry).
But his love for music couldn’t be
quenched even after studying Agriculture. That passion spurred him on to chase
after his dreams which included studying audio engineering. The evidence of
what he studied was later manifested when he established the Audio Farm
Recording Studios. The “feat” made him the youngest recording sound producer at
the time.
But it wasn't the production of sweet
sounds that Quata Budukusu wanted to be known. He released his debut album,
Wonie, in 2004. That album was the signature of Hammer of the Last Two, and it
will later shoot him to the ladder of fame. He was then under OM studios.
What made his style different was his
in-depth in Akan proverbs and adages which featured prominently in his raps. If
people had praised the rap skills of Okomfo Kwaadee and a host of others in his
league, then it was definitely no match for Quata Budukusu at the time.
That wasn't just his trademark, his
tongue twisting style of raps was a thump up.
His "innovation" no
doubt brought much competition in the game.
Quata Budukusu’s versatility as an
artist makes him the ultimate music tool and a package on its own. He adds a
distinct touch of originality to every genre. From his Ghanaian roots in
high-life, rap music, hip-life, Afro-pop, he is a gem. When it comes to
dance-hall, he is creative with the Patois.
These musical traits made him the most
featured artiste who did collaborations with KK Fosu, Tinny, Becca, Mzbel,
George Jarah, the Maestro Kojo Antwi, etc.
His second album concert was under
Dolphins Production, produced by Dan Grahl with guitar and keyboard work from
the famous Kwame Yeboah, which astounded the market and also made a massive
impact. The third album (Independence Day) introduced Quata Budukusu’s singing
side with the hit singles Baby ft Paa Dogo, Pretty Face ft VIP, Empress and
Living the life under Natures Clue Entertainment.
Quata Budukusu is currently signed to
Bakus Records and Entertainment after six years break from active music. Over
hundred songs recorded for his new release comes in all genres. It is the most
versatile masterpiece yet to hit the world.He is currently back from
hibernation with a lot of hit songs to include One life to live, which is doing
great in South Africa and the world, Wind and Go Low, Ohia, Pumpum Shots, U Too
Bad. Quata Budukusu was recently in South Africa where he recorded and shot a
video for a song which featured Uhuru Produced by DJ Clam.
In Twi, English and Jamaican Patois,
Quata Budukusu brings words to life with his rhymes,
rhythms, melodies and tongue-twisting rap skill and deep composition, the one
word for Quata Budukusu is MUSIC.

Japan's Prime Minister and leader of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) Shinzo Abe attends a news conference following a victory in the upper house elections by his ruling coalition, at the LDP headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, July 11, 2016. Japan's primary budget deficit is expected to be around 5.5 trillion yen ($51.77 billion) in fiscal 2020, improving from a 6.5 trillion yen deficit earlier projected but still missing the goal of a surplus, government sources who have seen the figures said on Monday. The primary budget deficit is expected to narrow partly because of the sluggish inflation outlook, with lower prices helping suppress government spending, said one of the sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. The forecast is also based on the assumption economic growth would pick up, the source said. Japan's government cut its forecasts for consumer prices earlier this month, saying it expected them to rise 1.4 percent for fiscal 2017, well bel
