After a two-year music hiatus and a seven-month social media break, the rapper returned to the limelight with “Free Throw,” a joint effort with fellow artist Joey B. A notable highlight of Ko-Jo Cue’s resurgence was his participation in the BET Hip-Hop Awards 2023 Cypher, where he proudly represented Ghana on the international stage. 

Making his announcement, Ko-Jo Cue shared a video that featured an interview with basketball legend Michael Jordan, who famously returned to the court in 1995 after a brief retirement. He captioned the post: “The unbeaten run continues! 4th Quarter Cue! Jump Ball in 7 days! I’m Back EP … Nov 16th. Stay Tuned!” 

This exciting revelation follows closely on the heels of Ko-Jo Cue’s teaser for the long-awaited “For My Brothers Concert,” scheduled for December.
