Hailing from the thriving cultural hub of Ghana, Raphael Boavi Lawson, best known by his artist moniker Chancellor1 is a predominantly Reggae, Dancehall, and Afrobeat artist who has been traversing the music realm for the past 10 years. Having embarked on his musical journey over a decade ago, Chancellor1 was surrounded by a rich musical diet of both Ashanti and Ewe homes which also enabled him to garner a dedicated following from both tribes. Despite music being his main association, Chancellor1 also boasts an esteemed academic prowess; from St.George’s International to Kumasi Academy and King’s College, he later did affiliate programs at the Cape Coast University and Sunyani Polytechnic while he still pursued his music journey in the process.
With an unwavering appetite for entertainment, Chancellor1 began working at clubs, pubs, and venues all across the beachfront of Ghana. This sheer passion for entertainment and experience pumping up crowds with invigorating performances led to Chancellor1 working closely with the likes of Fiifi Xela, Buddama, and others. Now, he looks forward to releasing his music to a worldwide audience, including his next Amapiano single ‘Pilolo’. Having led the Ashanti Dancehall music chart for the past 5 years by ReverbNation, Chancellor1 is well on his way to etching his own mark into the Afrobeat scene.
