3. FINALLY Some Truth!- Kuami Eugene Reveals Why He Keeps ‘STEALING’ Songs
In an interview, Kuami Eugene has been totally honest with his fans and himself just like Shatta Wale was few days ago. According to the Wish Me Well hitmaker, he dreads fading out from the industry because he is literally a breadwinner so losing relevance would render lots of people at a loss.
“I can’t afford to lose my relevance or falling down in this industry, I have been the one putting food on lots of people’s tables and it is very important to keep who I am for the benefit of others. I yearn to be greater than what I am now.”
Kuami Eugene has slammed Sarkodie for using their song together to campaign without his knowledge.
The two artistes released a song today, ‘Happy Day’, which contained a verse of Sarkodie praising Akufo-Addo and calling for 4more years for him.
According to him the verse with politics was not part of the song he heard but was put in the final cut.
“Sarkodie only sent me the first verse of his rap which did not contain the endorsement for Nana Addo to aid me to do the chorus,” Eugen said.
“It was only at the video shoot that we got to know of the second verse. We confronted Sark’s management, and they denied doing the song as an endorsement for Nana Addo.”
5. Its A Lie – Kuami Eugene Confronts Man Claiming To Be His Biological Father – Video
Few months ago, a man identified as Samuel Kofi Boakye said he was the real and missing father of the award winning Ghanaian musician.
Kuami Eugene has however refused to accept that Mr Samuel Boakye is his biological father.
He said he knows his real father, siblings and who his extended family members are so Mr Samuel Boakye can say whatever he wants to the media.
