Entertainment runs in Blackway's blood, he is the son of Ghanaian actor Kwaku Sintim-Misa. He moved from Accra, Ghana to Long Island with his mother in 2006. Blackway first realized rap was his true calling when he had the leading role at a school play in middle school and ended up ditching it to drop a freestyle at his friend's high school. He's been influenced by Big L, Jay Z, Eminem, Biggie, Kendrick Lamar, Drake, J. Cole, Nick Grant, Tory Lanez and a few others.
Capitalizing on the momentum from the lead single 'It Feel Good To Be Me', Blackway releases the bold, fun HEAVYWEIGHT EP. Featuring a revamped, remastered version of the title track (NFL's song of the season) and a new cut 'Badman', the EP is Blackway at his best - full of swagger, humour and confidence. With minimal, tight production from KoKo, the duo have forged a truly unique sound that places Blackway's flow and creative lyricism front and centre. Energetic, aggressive and charismatic, HEAVYWEIGHT EP exhibits a rapper with unlimited potential. Check out the project below;
