E. L also said, his father on the other hand is cool and quite so when he has a problem with his songs, he tell his mother to talk to him but he is cool with him.

Ghanaian rapper E.L has revealed that his mum was not a fan of some of his musical contents because of their explicit nature.

But he said when his mother confront him about such songs, he explains to her that, there are issues that needs to be addressed and as a “Social commentator”,

"My parents haven't heard Hold Your Buttocks. They heard Shelele. My mum heard Shelele and Shelele is actually a very explicit song at some point. She doesn't like it when I talk about some things but there are issues that have to be addressed; and as a social commentator, I have to address them. So that's exactly what I tell her”.

The "Obumo" rapper said this when speaking on ZTV on how his family receives some of his lyrics and other interesting things

He continued, "When she heard the song, she texted me and said we had to talk. I didn't go home for three (3) weeks so she couldn't have the talk the way she wanted to have it. So by the time we did have it, all the feelings had come down. I told her, 'Look, let me express myself; I am an artiste'.

“My dad doesn't say anything. He is very quiet. My mum is my dad's linguist so if he has a problem, he will tell my mum and my mum tells me", hje explained.

"But directly we are very cool. I know he hears my songs and he is like, 'your mum doesn't like this but yeah that's my son.' He is cool", he added.
