King George VIII is the moniker of 30-year-old Norwegian/Ghanaian artist George Kwadwo Ofori. His work as a producer has spanned eight years and counting, with a passion for music preceding that well into his childhood.

It is this very period of his life that has served as the inspiration for much of the young artist’s music; this is well clad in a sonic cloak of

afro-inspired R&B, electronic music (personally dubbed afrotronics) and a renaissance of West African genres such as highlife and palm wine afrobeat.
