Serious bangers and top songs have dominated the music scene for some time now.

But among those amazing songs, there are some who have favorite lyrics of Ghana or who were beaten decades ago, the nineties, the age of good music, say some of our generation more old.

They add a touch of "old school" to new genres, but bring a different feel and a refreshing mood, a break with new sounds or new lyrics.

The incorporation of these old songs into new works brings the older generation of music closer to the new generation without necessarily leaving their old songs.

You do not think so? Play Joey B's 'Sweetie Pie' for all the old friends you know.

This gives the younger generation a view of the past, a past they did not have a chance to experience. This makes them more appreciate music.

More importantly, it pays homage to the geniuses of music, singers and producers who have worked hard to create a genre and serve people with good music.

"Mane Me" – Stonebwoy

The 2018 song of the famous dancehall band was well received by the fans. From its diversity to collaboration.

The words of Dadie Anoma by 'Maestro' Kojo Antwi, a song that Ghanaians still love, have a very diversified touch. "Obii ba mane me ooo", the first line of the chorus, which is a lyric of "Dadie Anoma", gives dancehall singing not only a touch of old, but also of highlife.

This part has attracted listeners and fans, but it must be admitted, it is rather catchy.

'Sweetie Pie' – Joey B

This song was like the rapper. A cool and enjoyable hiplife song that has been seen over a million times on YouTube and 9,000 likes.

Amazing right? But what makes it more is much more the work of old work of the producer (Appietus) and that of Ofori Amponsah and Kofi Nti.

The part of the listeners crack, "waa do me sekyere d? Re?? Re? (You're my sweet sugar)", so pretty words from an old song created to melt the heart of a being expensive.

Kwani Kwani – Tic Tac by Kuami Eugene

When it was published, the babies of the 90s felt it, why? Because it was a new interpretation of one of their old favorite songs.

Tic, although added new times, and the sweet voice of Kuami Eugene, he kept the song closer to the original, but with a distinct touch.

On YouTube you will see comments like this in the original video, "who came here after the remix" or "I learned this because of the remix with Kuami Eugene." I do not have to tell you who was the old man or the beginner?

"Who still remembers the original track of TicTac ?, the first time I saw Tic in the new school, Wow, it's very creative, another big banger here," are some of the comments that you see under the new song. I must tell you, I agree, that it is creative and impressive.

Adiepena – KiDi

This song was refreshing and people were so engaged to the song that it tended. Everyone wanted to sing for his beloved because after all love is sometimes hard to find (Adiepena).

He may not have used the word first, but Kojo Antwi has made it popular and people have loved this song of "The Maestro". So it is very creative for Kidi to publish a song celebrating love hard to come by, one of Kojo's inspirations Antwi's love songs, he said.

Tatale – Cina Soul

Kla Manye herself has creatively added an old nursery rhyme to her song. The song Tatale from his EP Ga Mashi, recalls a childhood memory. Remember the song about buying Gari and Beans for 5 pesewas? Yes, she added that, so different and new.

Mr Badman – KiDi

This new trend song has attracted crowds everywhere since its release on January 30th. Kidi brings listeners back to the time of Wulomei – a ga band created in 1973 by Nii Tei Ashitey.
