About RCee

RCee, born Austin Antwi Boakye, is one of the fresh voices shaping Ghana’s new-school sound. Raised in Bremang, Kumasi and now based in Accra, his music sits right at the intersection of Afrobeats, Highlife and Afro-fusion. 

He started building momentum with early drops that felt honest and easy to connect with, the kind you play on late-night drives or soft life days. His debut EP “How Did We Get Here?” put him on the map, blending themes of love, growth, gratitude and ambition into a sound that’s both soulful and addictive. Tracks like ‘Knees & Bend’, ‘Amazing’ and ‘Blessings’ quickly became fan favorites, defining his signature calm-but-catchy energy.

Inspired by Ghana’s musical roots but fully tapped into the current African wave, RCee represents a new generation of artists who are intentional, versatile and here for longevity, not just hype.
