Episode #15 - Getting To Know New York born Singer/Songwriter Agyakomah

Author: Todd Woodson April 11, 2020 Duration: 41:09
Join my conversation with singer Agyakomah. NYC-based artist, Agyakomah has been developing her artistic talents seriously for the past three years. She has been writing and recording behind the scenes honing in on her musical identity and vision, beginning in her middle school years and continuing through her college career. Agyakomah’s music and performance is heavily inspired by her unique experience being raised in a Ghanaian household, while growing up in New York. With parents playing high-life music on Sunday’s, or hearing Ghanaian gospel music in church, Agyakomah would also be listening to her favorite R&B, Soul, and Pop music on her own time including Lauryn Hill, Brandy, and Boyz II Men. This background is heavily reflected in her Afro-Fusion, Afro-R&B, and hiplife inspired sound, her storytelling and her visuals. Agyakomah hopes to use her artistry to be a connector for people who are also simultaneously living the African experience, while also being a product of their immediate environment. She is currently writing, recording and gearing up to travel back to Ghana to work on her debut project anticipated to drop in 2020.
