Ghana’s rap tactician Lyrical Joe is back with his latest body of work: the EP BRIEF CASE. This compact 4-track project delivers no filler—just razor-sharp bars, vivid storytelling, and the hunger of an artist on the rise.
BRIEF CASE clocks in at around 10 minutes and four songs, but what it lacks in length it more than makes up for in impact.
Lyrical Joe delivers with precision: from deft wordplay to confident flows, this project shows he’s not just participating in the rap game — he’s setting the tone. GhanaMusic describes it as “a 4-track project packed with sharp bars, truth, and festive energy.”
Expect booming drums, crisp production, and vocal delivery that alternates between aggressive and introspective. The title BRIEF CASE works thematically: like a briefcase full of tools, Lyrical Joe assembles a toolkit of storytelling, rhythm, and style.
