The veteran highlife King, Amakye Dede, has disclosed that he was pressured by some external forces to bestow the title of the king of the future highlife title on Kuami Eugene. He said, Eugene could do better if he still remains with the highlife music terrain.
It can be recalled that following that particular incident, Amakye Dede had faced numerous criticisms from various individuals in the music industry, including record producer Zapp Mallet.
“Although I went ahead with it, it was not my personal choice. They pressured me into crowning Kuami Eugene.”
To buttress his point, the veteran highlife singer also disclosed that he initially handed over the crown to someone else to present, but was later persuaded to proceed with the act.
Many music fans can’t get it right, how can the whole legend, Abrante Amakye Dede be forced to crown kuami Eugene?
The “Su fre wo Nyame,” said he reluctantly, carried out the gesture.
