Ofori Amponsah, a highlife musician is normally referred to as All4Real.
He grew up in the Ashanti region and attended Agogo Practice School and Konongo Odumase Secondary School where he developed a lot of interest in reading and poetry. A lot of his poems turned out to be lyrics for his songs. He was brought to prominence through his work with Daddy Lumba. Judging from the last few years, he has stepped out of Lumba's shadow and has helped unearth talents like Kofi Nti, Richie Rich and Barosky.
He collaborated with Daddy Lumba on the latter's Wo ho kyere album. After this hit album, he released his debut Asew which was very successful and followed it with Meprawo and Bohobio. He was seen as a carbon copy of Daddy Lumba because their styles of music were similar and he sounded like him. However, he started to carve his own niche after he started doing albums with Kofi B (Taxi Driver) and Kofi Nti (Rakia) for which he wrote most of the songs. His collaboration with Barosky and Kofi Nti on the latter's album and his own called Platinum moved him into the upper echelon of Ghanaian musicians.
He sings mostly love songs which has earned him the nickname 'Ladies Man'. He has started his own record label called Foreez Westside and is helping bring more artistes into prominence.
Some of his songs are Yaa Boakyewaa, Nothing but love, Abelle, Hye nika, Celebrity, Mr. and Mrs, Tioko, Abro ne nkatee, Bo ho bio, Taxi Driver, Kwame ko, Highlife Dancing, Odo wine, Duakro, Barbeque, Ababio, Odegye, Sardine, Ahuofe, Mr. Otua, Odo tese aduro, Paa Kofi bae, Ankwanoma, Anigyina, Nyamekye, etc

I really like your music, especially Lady, Broken heart and Otoolege. Your voice is so smooth, I want to sing like you, how do I train my voice?
Heyyy, Ofori Amponsah speaks English so well heh, he should make more songs in English, I loved Lady!!! I love All4Real, oooooh!!!!
I agree, Ofori Amponsah should sing more songs in English. He is already gaining a lot of popularity outside and a couple of songs like Lady would help him out.
I think it's interesting how he embraced hiplife with the addition of Barosky to his camp. That helped him soar even higher as he broke the stranglehold that hiplife artistes had on the Ghana music awards by winning the most awards in 2005. He's a hard worker and released the Emmanuella album at a time that Otoolege was still Ghana's most popular song!
Hmm, so it's dropping in december, I'm excited! Ei, 25 tracks. And how many remixes and instrumentals of remixes is that?:-P
Read more about it
Now, to find someone to get it for me....
I THINK THIS X'MAS AND ANY OTHER DAY WOULD BE MORE CELEBRATEABLE. THIS IS BECAUSE, THE FIRST TIME I HEARD ALL4REAL'S LATEST ALBUM, I WAS ENTHUSED BY THE LYRICS. HE HAS PROVEN TO THE WHOLE NATION THAT HE IS REALLY "ALL4REAL". I URGE HIM TO CONTINUE.
New video by Ofori Amponsah featuring Batman Samini - Odwo
Odwo in Twi means (s)he is humble.
Nice track by two of Ghana's biggest artistes!
The newest video from All4Real and Flexibone (D Flex) is here!
Nyce video!
but why is it that almost every new song coming out of Ghana is about love and not about addressing other issues?? aah well we live to see.
I couldnt even log on to museke!
anyway enjoy!
This video is nice, freshh, tatalalicious, cute, lovable, excellentastic, everything. lol @ Essie...hehe, maybe they just feel the love these days na? But I agree with you, it would be nice to get some songs talking about other stuff too.
:-)
the video is simple and nice.
I have to listen to a couple of times but I feel 'Lady' is a much better song than this one hehe
For a second, I was wondering who Flexibone was. It is the guy who was singing at the end, I think his lines were in Hausa. (Why couldn't it be the girl, I mean she sang some, as for her, she was not featured?)
Isn't this Flexibone the same guy who was in Mzbel's E dey be video? Why didn't he sing in that one hehe?
i just love ofori amponsah and he is the guy of my dreams when it comes to music .i hope that he wins the award this year around .juliana
