Highlife musician, Dada Kwakye Duah, widely recognized
as Dada KD has stated unequivocally that Ghanaians are
better singers than Nigerians.
Over the weeks, there have been several controversies
between some Ghanaian and Nigerian artistes on who
champions the highlife and hiplife genres.
But the veteran musician, speaking in an interview with
host Afia Amankwah Tamakloe on Adom TV’s Badwam
noted that, Ghanaians being the originators of the popular
highlife genre are better musicians than Nigerians.
He told Afia Amankwah that ‘Nigerians can’t sing better
than us. We even record better music when we are serious.’
He meanwhile rubbished public assertions that the highlife
genre is dead hence not profitable to pursue as an artiste.
Stressing on the matter, the ‘So mu Gye’ hitmaker said ‘my
heart aches when people say highlife is dead. It is never
dead.’
Asked what motivates him as a highlife musician, he said ‘I
am my own competition. I work better on my previous
songs to move on in the limelight.’
Legendary Dada KD is currently promoting his classic
highlife song titled “Me We Wo” featuring the Jenifer
Lomotey hitmaker, Kurl Songx.
