The Lynx signee who has been hearing such comment has come out to defend the decision by Amakye Dede and as well his crown.
According to Kuami Eugene, it was a great opportunity performing with Amakye Dede and the crown he received from him is a blessing to his career.
“It was a good feeling and performing with Amakye Dede was a blessing. With the crown, it is also a blessing upon my life. I think it’s a negative vibe to say he was forced. Why can’t we appreciate goodness when it happens,”.
“I’ve won ‘Highlife Artiste of the Year’ back-to-back. Let me say that alone proves I am doing highlife well. I do live performances too and if I have been crowned Highlife act of the new era, I don’t think there is anything bad about it,” he explained.
