Early life and education
Andrew Paul Nii Amu Darko, better known as Darkoibes, was born in Ghana on March 14, 1995. There is a lot of information about his family.
After meeting and spending time with his friend and producer Vacs, who was working in a studio in Malham at the time, the musician truly found his calling in the music industry.
They devoted enough time to learn music and various genres of music such as rap. Darkovibes then decided to stand out by creating songs that mixed Ga, Twi, English and Pidgin. Since Twi and Ga are Ghanaian dialects, his tutors and classmates were against him.
He overcame all obstacles and stood firm in his decision; hence, he was noticed by producer Magnom. Together, they wrote a few songs for the MTN Pulse campaign. He started to attract the interest of Ayigbe Edem, Joey B and many others.
The performer has endured a fair amount of pain. Darkovibes remembers that when he first started performing, he was invited to perform on campus, but the event planners turned him down because they didn’t know him.

He collaborated with other members of the band La Même Gang, including Kiddblack, Nxwrth, RJZ, $pacely and KwakuBs. In 2017, La Meme Gang released their first joint studio tape, La Meme Tape.
