Born Cyril-Alex Gockel, C-Real is a Ghanaian emcee from Hohoe in the Upper Volta region of Ghana. He was runner-up in 2009's Channel O Emcee Africa competition, losing to Zimbabwe's Zeus who was on Big Brother Africa and Botswana's Cibil Nyte.
The album EMCEO is
themed on a rapper's dual nature as a businessman and an emcee. Featured
on the album are Ghanaian heavyweights like E.L. (who did the hook on
Sarkodie's You Go Kill Me), Efya, M.anifest and Channel O's J.town.

Opeimu and Hewale are two songs from
the album. On the hiphop-ish Opeimu, he features Channel O nominated
rapper, M.anifest while E.L. delivers a strong and touching hook on the
latter which is named for the Twi word for strength, a ballad to
encourage everyone passing through hard times and struggling for relevance.
A video for Hewale
is to be shot in a forthnight in Accra, Ghana. Be on the lookout for
more materials from C-Real as he takes over the world, one rap verse at a
time.
The album is available on iTunes, Amazon and soon to be on Spinlet
