“I am very much active in music except that my career took a nose-dive after my accident. I was recovering and thankfully enough I have announced my presence again, Very soon I will be releasing new songs”.
“My style of highlife has always been different from what people used to know from Daddy Lumba and the rest. People should watch out for my Afro-highlife style”, he echoed.
K.K. Fosu opined that there is not much difference between Afro-beat and Highlife, indicating is only the rhythm. The only new artists that must seek to do is to take advantage of social media and take marketing seriously.
