Ghanaian Highlife sensation KK Fosu has stated that he would like to do many collaborations with as many artists as possible, including R-Kelly.
He revealed that he would love to collaborate with the American RnB singer who is currently serving a 20-year jail term for enticing minors into sexual activity.
He, however, dismissed the limitation, stating that prison is not a hindrance to collaborating with anyone.
“But not that I’m settled now, I want to do as many collaborations as I can, I even want to collaborate with R-Kelly. It doesn’t matter, because in America, whether you’re in jail or not, you can still make things happen,” he said.
KK Fosu also stated that he once had the chance to collaborate with some major Nigerian artists when he dominated the music space in Ghana but could not. This, he revealed, was due to time constraints.
“When I first started, the world and the internet weren’t like this, it wasn’t that easy to blow up. So I remember when Tony Harmony and some other Nigerian stars came to look for me, but I was not in the country because I was ‘hot’,” he said.
Kaakyire Kwame Fosu, professionally known as KK Fosu is known for songs like “Suudwe”, and “Anadwo Yede” among others.
After a long break from music, KK Fosu announced his return to music, promising a comeback of authentic Highlife sounds in Ghana.
He dropped a new single titled “Back To Sender” as his comeback song and stated that the theme of the song connotes its intention as he hits back at critics who always wanted his downfall.
KK Fosu’s Dstyle Global music brand, which is managed by Bizzle Entertainment planned a series of activities to celebrate his 25th anniversary in the music industry later this year.
KK Fosu Highlights Preference For Lyrics In Songs
KK Fosu emphasized his preference for singing lyrics he wrote himself.
He stated that whenever he is given lyrics for a song, he takes the initiative to rewrite them to align with his personal writing style.
“I can’t sing a song that somebody has written for me, I don’t know how to do that. Even when you write it, I must change it to my progression. I will make sure I arrange your song for you if your song is not good,” he said.
He refuted allegations suggesting that Paa Kwesi Dobble wrote the lyrics for his song “Oga” during his past dispute with Samini (formerly known as Batman). The hiplife artist further clarified that the song was not intended as a response to Samini at all.
“So when you grant an interview, and you tell me you wrote Oga, can you write my song for me? Dobble Paa Kwesi can you stand before me?” he quizzed.
The singer of the hit song “Anadwo Yede” also acknowledged that he was the one who started the fan base trend in the music business.
“Ask about D camp. When we talk about this nation-nation thing, I started it,” he asserted.
Also, he urged Ghanaians to support up-and-coming musicians to extend their careers in the music business.
“What some people did to me, I do not want them to do to the likes of Kelvyn Boy, Kwame Eugene. Let’s pamper them to help them last long in the music Industry,” he emphatically stated.
The Hiplife artist reflects on the termination of ‘The Trinity,’ a music group he was part of, suggesting that more efforts could have been made to prevent its collapse. The band included artists such as Samini, Kokoveli, and K.K Fosu, among others.
K.K Fosu further disclosed that ‘The Trinity’ was assembled by media mogul, Bola Ray.
