Okomfo Kwaadee To Set Up Educational Fund?

Okomfo Kwaadee
It was about three ago when the very first melodious seed was sown by J.J. Anaabaa a.k.a Okomfo Kwaadee in Kumasi and there after many more, which have been enjoyed over the years by many people, most importantly because of his unique story telling approach.

Born on June 4th 1979, in an era where Ghana was marked by revolutions, coup d?etat and huge political and economic instability, he grew up learning a lot about society, human behaviour and concerns. As he launches his third ? Okomfo Se Kooo, it is seen as a continuation of his previous works. An exhibition of the talents of a young man, a star in the making, a household name to live for years to come? Okomfo Kwaadee.

His lyrics are about us, for us, to us. As witty as one can imagine, Okomfo Kwaadee appeals to all to listen carefully to the words since there is something in the album for each one of us.

Okomfo is appreciative of the fact that society has given him so much over the years and his aim is to continue to release songs to his admirers and critics whose direct and indirect contributions will put him on a high local and international pedestal. Also in the pipeline, Okomfo plans on working with international artistes to promote our local music and his contemporaries.

A clothe line has been designed for all those interested in his dress sense to wear. Next year, an educational fund for young people will be launched in the northern part of Ghana since Okomfo is of the opinion that education is the key to success.
