Since making an unexpected move to Accra in 2017, facilitated by a twist of fate, REB has not only found a new home but also a profound source of inspiration for his musical endeavours. In the heart of REB's musical journey lies a connection that transcends borders, particularly with his profound love for Ghana.
Scheduled for launch on the 1st of March, REB's EP will make its auditory debut on the 27th of February, a prelude to the sonic adventure that lies ahead.

Join us as we dissect the elements that make this EP a beacon of innovation, setting the stage for a launch that promises to be more than a mere musical event – it's a declaration of artistic transcendence.
In tracing the origins of REB's musical odyssey, we delve into the rich tapestry of his roots and upbringing. Raised in an environment where music wasn't merely a pastime but a way of life, REB's journey was set against the backdrop of a childhood deeply immersed in melodies. His mother, a devoted chorister, ensured that from an early age, REB found himself at the heart of the choir, the harmonious notes shaping his earliest musical inclinations. However, what makes REB's narrative truly unconventional is the unexpected path he took to enter the music world. From his initial aspirations that stood far from the realm of musical endeavours, REB found himself redirected by the threads of fate. The journey began with childhood experiences in choirs, progressed through the mastery of various instruments, and eventually led him to discover an unwavering love for the piano.
In a world where paths are often linear, REB's story unfolds with unique twists, each note contributing to the harmonious symphony that defines his musical identity. The roots of his eclectic taste are deeply embedded in these formative years, where the unconventional became the foundation for a remarkable musical journey.
Embarking on the exploration of REB's musical universe, we encounter the distinct phenomenon known as the "Alien Sound." Here lies the essence of his unique
musical style, a sonic tapestry woven with threads of innovation and refusal to conform to a specific genre. The term "Alien Sound" is a testament to REB's audacious approach, where he boldly asserts his ability to transcend the confines of traditional musical categorizations. In essence, the "Alien Sound" is an auditory voyage that defies expectations and challenges the norm. REB, as a true artist, refuses to be tethered to the limitations of a singular genre, opting instead to traverse diverse musical landscapes. The result is a body of work that is versatile, unpredictable, and distinctly his own.
To understand the genesis of this musical identity, it's essential to acknowledge the influences that have shaped REB's artistry. Idols like 2Baba Idibia and Don Jazzy have left an indelible mark on his musical psyche. Their innovative approaches, coupled with their ability to push boundaries, resonate deeply with REB's artistic sensibilities. These influences, woven into the fabric of the "Alien Sound," contribute to the richness and authenticity that define REB's musical expression.
As we delve deeper into the enchanting realm of REB's musical journey, a pivotal moment unfolds—the spontaneous birth of the sensational track 'JOGODO.' Here, we step behind the scenes of REB's creative process, witnessing the alchemy that transforms a simple melody into a vivacious anthem. 'JOGODO' wasn't meticulously crafted; it emerged organically during a collaborative session with his producer. In a playful hum, "kili jo kili jo kili jogodo," the infectious chorus of 'JOGODO' came to life, capturing the essence of carefree exuberance. This track, with its energetic beats and lively spirit, stands as a testament to REB's ability to encapsulate pure joy within the confines of music. While 'JOGODO' may not carry a profound narrative, its significance lies in the sheer delight and enthusiasm it brings to listeners.
Anticipating the grand unveiling of the EP, a curtain is drawn back ever so slightly to tease glimpses of the diverse musical landscape that awaits. Other tracks on the EP promise to be a symphony of varied sounds, each telling a unique story within the overarching narrative of "Alien Abduction."
