Tyler Mane says he has started chemotherapy after being diagnosed with a rare form of male breast cancer. Tyler Mane is turning a private health scare into a public warning. According to the original report, the Canadian actor, best known for playing Sabretooth in X-Men, revealed on Instagram that he has been diagnosed with a rare form of breast cancer. The 59-year-old actor and former professional wrestler said he has started chemotherapy. In his video, Mane explained that breast cancer in men is rarely discussed, even though it can happen. Mane said one in 750 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, adding that he is now one of them. He also noted that only about 1% of breast cancer cases occur in men, which has helped create silence and stigma around the condition. The actor admitted that his first instinct was to keep the diagnosis private because he felt embarrassed. But after learning how often men are diagnosed late, he decided to speak out. Mane said his doctors initially dismissed the lump. According to him, it was his wife who insisted that he should have it removed, a decision he believes helped him catch the cancer early. For many fans, Mane is remembered as the towering, intimidating Sabretooth from the 2000 X-Men film. He later returned to the Marvel universe in Deadpool & Wolverine, bringing fresh attention to one of his most famous roles. But his latest message is not about Hollywood. It is about awareness, shame, and the importance of men taking their health seriously. Mane’s diagnosis has opened a wider conversation about male breast cancer, a condition often hidden behind the false belief that it only affects women. By sharing his story, the actor is using his platform to remind men to pay attention to their bodies and push for answers when something feels wrong. For Tyler Mane , the fight is now personal. For the public, his story is a reminder that early action can make all the difference.

Davido releases his 13-track sixth album, ORIADÉ, featuring Black Sherif, Aya Nakamura, Mayorkun, Leon Thomas and more. Davido is stepping into a new chapter of his career with ORIADÉ, a tightly packed album shaped by African pride, global collaborations and reflections on his rise. According to [The Sun], the Nigerian Afrobeats star released the 13-track project on July 31, 2026, describing it as the beginning of another phase in his 15-year journey through music. The album brings together several voices from Africa and beyond. Leon Thomas, Black Sherif, Aya Nakamura, Mayorkun, FOLA, Llona, NO11, JAZZWRLD and GL_Ceejay all appear across the project. At 13 songs, ORIADÉ is Davido’s shortest studio album. His previous five albums each contained 17 tracks, making the new release a clear break from the format he had followed for years. Davido first announced the album’s release date on June 29. The reveal arrived through a social-media video showing him dressed in regal Yoruba clothing while a traditional Yoruba eulogy played in the background. “The kingdom expands. Chosen long before the throne,” he wrote alongside the announcement, introducing the royal imagery that surrounds the album’s title and presentation. ORIADÉ is Davido’s sixth studio LP and his seventh major project since he entered Nigeria’s mainstream music scene more than a decade ago. The rollout began with “I Know Who I Be,” featuring South African duo JAZZWRLD and GL_Ceejay. The song looks back at Davido’s career, the distance he has travelled and the milestones that have defined his public life. Its video takes the story back to the childhood home where his musical ambitions began. Longtime collaborators and members of his team also appear, connecting his early years with the global career that followed. Davido continued the rollout with “Gimme Dat Ting,” a collaboration with NO11 that blends Afrobeats and Amapiano. The track centres on confidence, ambition, success and enjoying the rewards of years spent building a career.

Patrick Muyaya told CNN the DRC remains experienced and fully mobilized to contain Ebola despite insecurity and challenges in eastern Congo. Democratic Republic of Congo government spokesperson Patrick Muyaya has defended the country’s handling of the latest Ebola outbreak, insisting that Congolese authorities remain experienced, fully mobilized, and capable of containing the virus despite concerns over delayed detection and ongoing insecurity in eastern Congo. Speaking in an interview with CNN International, Muyaya acknowledged public concern surrounding the rapid spread of the outbreak but stressed that the current strain differs from previous Ebola variants the country has faced over the years. “This is the 17th time the DRC is facing this kind of outbreak. We have experience,” Muyaya said during the interview. “We have the best specialists on all those questions.” DRC Says New Ebola Strain Presented Different Symptoms During the CNN discussion, Muyaya explained that the outbreak initially proved difficult to identify because the symptoms resembled more common illnesses such as malaria. According to him, many patients initially presented with fever and other symptoms not immediately associated with Ebola, particularly because the current Bundibugyo strain differs from the more lethal Zaire strain that Congo has previously confronted. “Each virus, each outbreak is different from the previous one,” Muyaya said. “People were thinking that it was a mystic sickness coming from nowhere.” The government spokesperson argued that once health authorities confirmed the nature of the outbreak, emergency response mechanisms were immediately activated. He said the response is now being coordinated directly by the Health Ministry alongside renowned Congolese virologist Dr. Jean-Jacques Muyembe and specialized response teams deployed on the ground.

He said the response is now being coordinated directly by the Health Ministry alongside renowned Congolese virologist Dr. Jean-Jacques Muyembe and specialized response teams deployed on the ground. Contact Tracing and Treatment Efforts Intensified Muyaya told CNN that Congolese authorities are currently conducting large-scale investigations and contact tracing operations in affected areas. ADVERTISEMENT According to figures provided during the interview: 69 patients are currently under treatment, over 500 suspected cases are under investigation, and specialized Ebola units remain operational in Ituri and North Kivu provinces. He added that the outbreak remains concentrated in several areas of Ituri, as well as in Goma and Butembo in North Kivu. The government says daily situation reports are being released to maintain transparency and public awareness. “Everything is now being followed closely, even by the president himself,” Muyaya stated. Public Prevention Campaigns Expanded The Congolese government has also intensified public prevention campaigns aimed at limiting transmission. Muyaya urged citizens to: wash hands regularly, avoid crowded places, report symptoms early, and follow public health guidelines. He emphasized that prevention and public awareness remain essential while medical teams continue researching treatment options and response mechanisms for the current strain. “That’s the way we can stop the transmission of the virus,” he explained. DRC Highlights Long Experience Fighting Ebola Throughout the interview, Muyaya repeatedly stressed that the DRC possesses one of the world’s most experienced Ebola response systems due to repeated outbreaks over the past decades. ADVERTISEMENT The country gained international recognition during previous epidemics, particularly the 2018–2020 North Kivu outbreak, which led to the development of: specialized rapid-response teams, laboratory networks, surveillance systems, and vaccine research programs led by Congolese scientists. Muyaya also emphasized that Congolese experts are optimistic about eventually developing treatment and vaccine solutions adapted to the current strain. Security Crisis in Eastern Congo Complicates Response A major part of the interview focused on the impact of insecurity in eastern Congo on public health operations. Muyaya specifically raised concerns about Goma, which he described as being under “Rwandan occupation” linked to AFC/M23 control. According to the government spokesperson, the security situation complicates logistics, border management, and access to treatment for populations in affected areas. “If we need to follow closely what is going on in Goma, Rwanda should just get out from DRC,” Muyaya declared. He criticized Rwanda’s decision to close parts of the border while the airport in Goma remains shut, arguing that such conditions make humanitarian and health coordination more difficult. The remarks reflect Kinshasa’s broader position that the security crisis and public health crisis in eastern Congo are increasingly interconnected.

He said assistance is particularly needed for: transportation, medical logistics, prevention campaigns, treatment infrastructure, and scientific research. However, he insisted that the DRC already possesses the technical expertise required to manage the outbreak itself. “Any assistance coming from international partners is welcome,” he said, adding that support would help authorities “provide the treatment and even the vaccine for this strain.” “We Will Contain the Virus” Despite concerns surrounding the outbreak, Muyaya projected confidence that the situation can ultimately be controlled. The government spokesperson concluded the interview by stressing that Congo’s accumulated experience from previous Ebola crises gives authorities confidence in their ability to contain the virus once again. “We will be able to manage and contain the virus as we did for the 16 previous ones,” he told CNN International. The outbreak continues to be closely monitored by Congolese authorities, the World Health Organization (WHO), and international health partners as emergency teams remain deployed across affected regions in eastern DRC.

MC Yaa Yeboah says she will continue expressing her views despite criticism over her comments on United Showbiz and past media disputes. Ghanaian entertainment pundit MC Yaa Yeboah has publicly responded to mounting criticism over her on-air opinions, stating that she remains resolute and will not retreat from expressing her views despite sustained backlash. The media personality, a regular panelist on United Showbiz on UTV, has faced widespread reactions on social media following her commentary on a dispute involving the late highlife musician Daddy Lumba and his two wives. Some viewers accused her of favouring the younger widow, a perception that intensified online criticism of her position. Beyond the specific controversy, MC Yaa Yeboah’s broader style of engagement on television has also drawn scrutiny. Critics have described her questioning and debate approach during panel discussions as confrontational, while others argue it crosses into disrespect. Supporters, however, maintain that her forthrightness reflects her commitment to accountability within the entertainment industry. This is not the first time the pundit has found herself at the centre of public debate. She previously attracted strong backlash after commenting on actor Lilwin following a fatal road accident involving a child. At the time, she stated that in a more “civilised nation,” the actor would have faced imprisonment for dangerous driving, remarks many viewers considered insensitive given the circumstances. MC Yaa Yeboah has also engaged in public disagreements with fellow media figures, including Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo and social media personality Efia Odo, on issues ranging from celebrity conduct to discussions around beauty standards. In response to the latest wave of criticism, she shared an artificial intelligence-generated image of herself holding a newspaper bearing the headline “I Cannot Be Silenced.” The image, accompanied by a caption urging critics to “know this and know peace,” depicted her standing firm amid voices shouting around her. In a follow-up message, she suggested that persistent attacks only strengthen her resolve, stressing that pressure has reinforced rather than diminished her commitment to speaking her mind. MC Yaa Yeboah has consistently defended her contributions to public discourse, stating that her views are grounded in merit, professionalism and the need for higher standards within Ghana’s entertainment industry.

In a thrilling match, Cameroon triumphed over Cape Verde 4-1, with Vincent Aboubakar scoring twice and Andre Onana saving a crucial stoppage-time penalty. This marked a stress-free debut for Marc Brys, the new coach, despite initial tensions between Fecafoot and the Ministry of Sport.

DRC and Burundi reopen the Gatumba–Kavimvira border after two months, restoring movement under regular migration procedures. The Gatumba–Kavimvira border crossing between eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Burundi reopened Monday, more than two months after Burundian authorities closed it when Uvira fell to AFC/M23 rebels . Both governments agreed there would be no ceremony; the crossing simply resumed operation with normal controls, restoring a key link for traders and families separated since December 10 as cited by africanews . After meeting Burundi’s commissioner for migration, Kavimvira’s migration chief reminded travellers that all usual documentation visas and other papers is still required and that the post will operate daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. local time. A statement from the migration services emphasised that anyone in Burundi may cross into the DRC “in complete tranquillity ”. The announcement aligns with reports that authorities from both countries agreed to resume movement “under regular procedures,” with travellers encouraged to cross “in complete tranquility”. The reopening follows M23’s withdrawal from Uvira in January and the Congolese army’s return to control, which led South Kivu governor Jean‑Jacques Purusi to confirm the reopening at 8:00 a.m. Monday. The post had been shut since December 10, cutting off a vital trade route along Lake Tanganyika; local media note that the closure was meant to stop Burundian support for Congolese forces amid fighting . The reopening marks a relief for thousands of traders and commuters who rely on the crossing for goods and livelihoods. Burundian and Congolese residents interviewed by Actualité.cd expressed gratitude to authorities for listening to their appeals and hoped the restored link would help revive cross‑border trade and family ties Continue Reading Full Article WAR IN DR CONGO DRC-Burundi governments reopen Gatumba–Kavimvira By Serge Kitoko Tshibanda Political Analyst Serge Kitoko Tshibanda Home Comment Feb 23, 2026 May 15, 2026 2 min read Copy link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Published Updated: The Gatumba–Kavimvira border crossing between eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Burundi reopened Monday, more than two months after Burundian authorities closed it when Uvira fell to AFC/M23 rebels .

Rising Stars to Watch CHAN has launched many players into Europe’s top leagues. This year’s edition continues that tradition: Ryan Ogam (Kenya) – Top scorer in the Kenyan Premier League with 13 goals; his finishing and movement have fueled Kenya’s attack Austine Odhiambo (Kenya) – A creative midfielder with five league goals plus two at the COSAFA Cup. His vision makes him a fan favourite Ayoub Mouloua (Morocco) – Just 22, Mouloua was the Moroccan league’s top scorer (11 goals, 3 assists) t His pace and technique could earn him a European move. João Manha “Kaporal” (Angola) – Prolific striker with 22 Girabola goals Oscar Kabwit (DR Congo) – Powerful forward known for strength and clinical finishing Clement Mzize (Tanzania) – 21‑year‑old forward with six league goals; his pace is deadly Feisal Salum (Tanzania) – Creative midfielder with vision and composure John Christiano Razafimanana (Madagascar) – Instrumental in qualification; known for speed and finishing Abdouramane Mohamed (Niger) – Central defender and star performer East Africa’s rise, powered by Kenya’s and Uganda’s domestic leagues, has given the region fresh confidence. North Africa, meanwhile, remains strong: Morocco and Algeria consistently produce technically gifted players who shine in CHAN and beyond. 4.

Economic & Cultural Impact East Africa’s CHAN hosting has sparked a sports‑tourism boom and massive infrastructure investments: Shared Vision for Sports Tourism: The tournament has “catalyzed a reimagining of sports tourism and infrastructure” across the r egion . Co‑hosting required harmonising CAF standards, coordinating construction schedules and cross‑border inspections, paving the way for future multi-national bids. Kenya’s Investment: Kenya spent KSh 3.6 billion (US$27 million) on Kasarani’s refurbishment, with another KSh 3.1 billion for phase 2 . The country is also building Talanta Sports City , a 60,000‑seat complex costing KSh 44.7 billion and intended as a year‑round sports and events hub. Uganda & Tanzania Upgrades: Uganda’s Namboole Stadium was completed after years of delays and now meets CAF/FIFA standards. Tanzania upgraded the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium and is building Samia Suluhu Hassan Stadium , a US$112 million project with additional training grounds. These investments aim to boost tourism and market coastal attractions. Jobs & Community Engagement: Construction and event hosting created thousands of jobs in construction, hospitality, and security. Fan zones with screens, food stalls, and entertainment popped up in Nairobi and Kampala, drawing families and youth. These zones fostered community pride and a carnival atmosphere. Soft Power & Legacy: Local governments use CHAN to project national pride and capability. Sports economist Isaac Yegon notes that the upgraded venues could anchor sports academies, attract private investment, and strengthen the talent pipeline. CHAN 2025 is therefore both a football tournament and a catalyst for urban development. 6. Fan Reactions & Hashtags CHAN 2025 has been as much about the fans as the players: Vuvuzelas & Chants: East African crowds brought back the vuvuzela roar. The stands in Nairobi, Dar es Salaam, and Kampala pulsed with drums, whistles, and creative chants. Social Media Buzz: Fans have shared TikTok clips of goal celebrations, stadium dances, and matchday fashion. Trending hashtags include #CHAN2025 , #Pamoja , #FootballAfrica , #HarambeeStars , #BareaMadagascar and #BenjaminiMkapa . On X (Twitter), updates and memes around refereeing decisions and local heroes go viral. Memes & Street Fashion: Youth culture shines through colourful jerseys, painted faces, and memes mocking missed penalties or praising emerging stars. The Africa Nations Championship 2025 proved that African football thrives when it invests in its roots. By limiting squads to domestic league players, CHAN celebrates the local heroes often overlooked in AFCON. The tri‑nation hosting by Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda showcased East Africa’s capacity to stage major tournaments while delivering stadium upgrades and boosting sports tourism. Rising stars like Ryan Ogam, Ayoub Mouloua, and Clement Mzize captured hearts, and the vibrant fan culture reminded us that football is both sport and spectacle.

ADF forced taxation in Ituri raises concern over civilian control, conflict financing and FARDC-UPDF operations. Reported forced taxation by ADF fighters in Ituri points to a wider strategy of territorial control, not just armed intimidation. According to BETO.CD , local sources say ADF fighters held meetings in Makuku and Ndioka, in Babila-Bakwanza chiefdom, where civilians were allegedly ordered to pay fees tied to farming access and “security” tokens. The reported payments include about 30,000 Congolese francs per field and monthly fees of up to $50 per resident in some areas. Civil society sources cited in the report say farmers have been paying large sums weekly, while ADF meetings have continued without immediate disruption. The significance is that taxation can function as a form of parallel authority. Analysts cited by the outlet say the system creates fear and dependence, making residents less likely to cooperate with military intelligence or support operations against the group. The ADF remains one of the most active armed threats in eastern DR Congo , where rights groups have documented repeated attacks, abductions and abuses against civilians. Amnesty International has also described the group as operating across North Kivu and Ituri, with civilians facing severe violence and displacement. Joint FARDC-UPDF operations have continued to target ADF positions. Ugandan and Congolese forces recently reported rescuing more than 200 civilians from ADF captivity during an operation in eastern DRC, showing continued military pressure even as the group adapts locally. The challenge for security forces is that economic coercion can make military action more complex. If civilians’ access to fields, income and basic safety becomes tied to ADF-imposed payments, operations risk triggering reprisals or deeper displacement in areas west of Lolwa and toward Mambasa.

The DRC and Rwanda will start implementing long-delayed security measures under a U.S.-mediated peace deal, with first steps set for Oct 1, Reuters reports New York/Washington, The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), and Rwanda have agreed to begin implementing long-delayed security measures under a United States–mediated peace deal, with the first steps scheduled for October 1, according to diplomatic sources who spoke to Reuters. The measures include operations against the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) and a phased withdrawal of Rwandan troops from Congolese soil between October 21 and 31. Both countries pledged to finalize the plan by the end of the year. The deal, signed in Washington on June 27 by the two countries’ foreign ministers in the presence of U.S. President Donald Trump, was touted as a landmark moment. But deep-rooted disputes over Rwanda’s support for the M23 rebellion have already delayed progress. Tshisekedi’s Firm Stand at UNGA80 Speaking this week at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, President Félix Antoine Tshisekedi warned that Congo’s sovereignty is “non-negotiable.” He insisted that withdrawal of Rwandan forces and an end to Kigali’s support for M23 are essential preconditions for peace. “The recent massacres in Rutshuru show the cost of delay. Rwanda pretends to have withdrawn, but its forces remain on our soil, supporting auxiliaries who kill civilians,” Tshisekedi said. Washington Pressure, Doha Stalemate The timeline was hammered out during meetings in Washington on September 17–18 after months of deadlock. Yet, internal notes from the discussions revealed major disagreements: M23’s role: Rwanda denies controlling the rebels, while UN experts reported Kigali exercises “command and control.” FDLR numbers: Kinshasa insists neutralization requires joint action, but Rwanda says it is Congo’s burden.

Minerals and Geopolitics The U.S. is pushing hard for progress, eyeing billions in Western investment into Congo’s vast mineral reserves, cobalt, tantalum, lithium, gold, and copper, which are critical for global supply chains. Sources confirmed that Congo and Rwanda are also preparing a regional economic integration framework, expected to be signed in Washington once security progress is made.

Read Kofi Mole’s biography: real name, Kumasi upbringing, university journey, Don’t Be Late, awards, projects and latest 2026 music. Ghanaian rapper Kofi Mole on Instagram , also active through his official Kofi Mole X profile , built his career by turning the pressure of work, school and uncertain ambition into melodic street rap. Born Edward Kofi Agyemang Amoah and raised in Kumasi, he moved from selling clothes at Kantamanto to creating some of Ghana’s most recognisable late-2010s hip-hop songs. Who is Kofi Mole? Kofi Mole is a Ghanaian rapper, singer and songwriter best known for “Mensah” with Kwesi Arthur and the 2019 hit “Don’t Be Late.” After leaving the University of Ghana to pursue music, he won major Ghanaian awards and expanded his catalogue through solo projects and collaborations. Formative Years: Kumasi, Kantamanto and an Unfinished Degree Kofi Mole grew up in Kumasi and later attended Armed Forces Senior High Technical School before entering the University of Ghana. While studying, he sold clothes at Accra’s Kantamanto market, work he relied on to support himself. Trading and music increasingly collided with lectures and quizzes. In a 2019 JoyNews interview, reported by MyJoyOnline’s account of his university decision , he explained the choice plainly: “School wasn’t giving me much time for music so I had to drop school and pursue music.” Kofi Mole, speaking to JoyNews A separate Delay Show report said he had studied Psychology, Philosophy and Religion. The two reports disagree about whether he left in Level 200 or Level 300, but they agree on the essential point: he departed before completing the degree because music and the work that funded his life had taken priority. His mother, he said, was disappointed because he had been academically strong. That family tension gives his familiar “hustler” persona more weight; it was a decision with real costs rather than an effortless myth of discovery. First Steps: “Mensah,” Ground Up Chale and a Wider Rap Circle Kofi Mole’s catalogue reaches back to the 2017 project Spread the News . His first broadly consequential release arrived the next year. Apple Music dates “Mensah” featuring Kwesi Arthur to April 16, 2018, released under N.G.A. Produced by Kayso, the track connected Mole to the Ground Up Chale orbit and gave listeners an early example of his conversational delivery. The collaboration mattered beyond name recognition. Kwesi Arthur was emerging as a central figure in a new Ghanaian rap generation, and “Mensah” placed Mole inside that network while preserving his own viewpoint about family, alienation and being treated as an outsider. Sarkodie’s multi-rapper “Biibi Ba” later widened that visibility. Those associations can be explored alongside XTRAfrica’s Sarkodie music collection , but Mole’s next step would establish him independently.

The two reports disagree about whether he left in Level 200 or Level 300, but they agree on the essential point: he departed before completing the degree because music and the work that funded his life had taken priority. His mother, he said, was disappointed because he had been academically strong. That family tension gives his familiar “hustler” persona more weight; it was a decision with real costs rather than an effortless myth of discovery. First Steps: “Mensah,” Ground Up Chale and a Wider Rap Circle Kofi Mole’s catalogue reaches back to the 2017 project Spread the News . His first broadly consequential release arrived the next year. Apple Music dates “Mensah” featuring Kwesi Arthur to April 16, 2018, released under N.G.A. Produced by Kayso, the track connected Mole to the Ground Up Chale orbit and gave listeners an early example of his conversational delivery. The collaboration mattered beyond name recognition. Kwesi Arthur was emerging as a central figure in a new Ghanaian rap generation, and “Mensah” placed Mole inside that network while preserving his own viewpoint about family, alienation and being treated as an outsider. Sarkodie’s multi-rapper “Biibi Ba” later widened that visibility. Those associations can be explored alongside XTRAfrica’s Sarkodie music collection , but Mole’s next step would establish him independently. Breakthrough: Why “Don’t Be Late” Changed the Scale Released in March 2019, “Don’t Be Late” paired quick rap passages with a tender, singable appeal to a distant lover. The record’s emotional directness helped it travel beyond a narrow rap audience. In its year-end survey, OkayAfrica called it one of Ghana’s 20 best songs of 2019 and described it as a contender for the year’s biggest hip-hop song. The breakthrough worked because Mole shaped his rap instincts around melody, romantic vulnerability and everyday Ghanaian speech. “Don’t Be Late” was a club record, but its longing was intimate enough to feel personal. It also showed that Ghanaian hip-hop could cross into mass listening without flattening its local language or character. Recognition followed quickly. The 2019 3Music Awards winners list records Kofi Mole as Next Rated Act of the Year. In 2020, “Don’t Be Late” won Hip-Hop Song of the Year at the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards, confirmed in Citi Newsroom’s full awards report . The two wins chart the difference between promise and delivery: first the artist was identified as one to watch, then his defining song earned genre-level recognition. ADVERTISEMENT Craft and Catalogue: Witty Flows, Melody and Collaborative Range Mole’s music moves between hip-hop, hiplife and Afrobeats rather than treating the categories as locked rooms. He commonly raps in Twi alongside English and Ghanaian Pidgin, shifting from tightly packed bars to melodic hooks. XTRAfrica’s Ghana music hub places that mixture within a broader scene where rap, highlife, hiplife and contemporary pop continually overlap. Critics have noticed both the local grounding and the American rap imagery in his work. Pan African Music’s review of “Work” praised Mole and Joey B’s Twi verses over a bass-heavy beat, described “Don’t Be Late” as a milestone for Ghanaian hip-hop, and identified witty flows as one of his signatures. That wit often sits beside material about money, doubt, work and emotional uncertainty the recurring subjects of someone who learned to translate instability into performance. His collaborations reveal range. “Drip” joined him with Medikal and Joey B; “Yabre” featured Fameye; “Makoma” brought in Sarkodie and Bosom P-Yung; and “Work” paired him with Joey B. In 2025, “Abrantie” linked him with Beeztrap KOTM, whose growing catalogue appears on XTRAfrica’s Beeztrap KOTM music page . 3Music’s release report highlighted the contrast between Mole’s lyrical style and Beeztrap’s energetic delivery. Projects and Achievements Beyond the Breakthrough The five-track Aposor Love EP followed in October 2019, gathering “Don’t Be Late” with songs such as “Me Ne Woaa,” “Bestie” and “Obi Pe.” The 2020 #MoleMondays album collected a freestyle series, keeping rap performance at the centre of his identity. Then came Knackaveli , an eight-track 2022 project featuring Edem, Pappy Kojo and Joey B. Apple Music’s Knackaveli listing classifies it as alternative rap, while contemporary coverage often described it as an EP or mixtape. In May 2025, Mole released the five-song B4 Da Album EP. The concise project included “Bleoo,” “Alte Party,” “Evergreen,” “Brodie” and “No Play,” with Apple Music confirming its May 8 release . Four months later, he and Squyb The Paradox delivered Gangster Love Matter . The official album listing credits both artists, seven songs and a September 9, 2025 release through No Gentlemen Allowed/A Youngin’ Sound. It is his latest full album as of August 2026. Career Timeline: From First Releases to “TRAP HOUSE” Year Event Significance 2017 Released Spread the News Established the earliest verified starting point in his catalogue. 2018 Released “Mensah” with Kwesi Arthur and appeared on “Biibi Ba” Connected Mole to Ghana’s rising rap network and a national audience. 2019 “Don’t Be Late” broke through; won 3Music Next Rated; released Aposor Love Turned early recognition into a major solo identity. 2020 “Don’t Be Late” won VGMA Hip-Hop Song of the Year; released #MoleMondays Confirmed award recognition while reinforcing his freestyle craft. 2022 Released Knackaveli Expanded his project-based storytelling and collaborative range. 2025 Released B4 Da Album and Gangster Love Matter Began a prolific new phase with both solo and collaborative projects. 2026 Released “TRAP HOUSE” and appeared on “Yegye Yeni” Kept his solo catalogue current while continuing cross-generational collaborations. Heritage and Identity: A Case for Ghana’s Own Sound Mole’s use of Twi, local references and Ghanaian rhythmic traditions is not only stylistic. It fits a wider argument he has made about cultural ownership. In January 2026, he told an interviewer that Ghana’s industry had not sustained a clearly recognisable global sound, pointing to Azonto as an opportunity that had been discarded too soon. “Azonto could have been our global sound.” Kofi Mole, as reported by XTRAfrica That position helps explain why his music feels comfortable inside both contemporary rap and Ghana’s hiplife lineage. His career is not a museum project he freely borrows from global hip-hop but the language, humour and social details keep returning the songs home. Readers exploring that context can also browse XTRAfrica’s African hip-hop collection . ADVERTISEMENT Personal Journey and Resilience Behind the Persona Publicly verified details about Mole’s current relationships or family life are limited, and his biography is stronger without turning old interview claims into permanent labels. The better documented personal story is his movement between responsibility and artistic risk: helping himself through market work, leaving a degree his mother wanted him to finish, and building a career without knowing whether the choice would succeed. That background surfaces in his recurring language of work and endurance. It also explains why fashion remains part of his visual identity; clothing was not merely image-making but once a source of income. The “Aposo Gangsta” persona can look playful or brash, yet the career beneath it has repeatedly returned to vulnerability, disappointment and the determination to continue. Impact: A Bridge Between Street Rap and Popular Melody Kofi Mole’s impact is best measured with restraint. He did not invent melodic Ghanaian rap, but “Don’t Be Late” became a clear example of how an emotionally accessible hook could carry sharp rap delivery into clubs and mainstream playlists. His 3Music and VGMA wins provide institutional evidence of that moment, while the song’s continued position among his most-streamed tracks shows its durability. His catalogue also links several layers of Ghana’s scene: the Ground Up Chale generation around Kwesi Arthur, established figures including Sarkodie and Joey B, and newer voices such as Beeztrap KOTM. At 121,889 monthly Spotify listeners in August 2026, Mole retains an international streaming audience while keeping a sound rooted in Ghanaian language and experience. Looking Ahead: What Comes After the 2026 Singles? As of August 2026, no confirmed release date for a new solo album has been established. The title B4 Da Album clearly gestured toward a larger project, but it should not be treated as a formal album announcement without stronger evidence. What is verified is continued activity: Gangster Love Matter arrived in late 2025, followed by “Odo Bra” with Oxlade, “JO,” and then “TRAP HOUSE.” Apple Music lists “TRAP HOUSE” as his latest solo release, dated April 10, 2026. The same period included “Yegye Yeni” with Melloboy and other features, suggesting that collaboration remains central to his next chapter. The open question is not whether Mole is recording, but how he will convert this renewed release pace and his public call for a stronger Ghanaian identity into the next sustained body of work.
