2024 TGMA 'New Artiste of the Year' nominee, King Paluta, has disclosed his early beginnings in the music industry, predating even Sarkodie's entry.

He recalled initiating his musical journey at a young age, a path that was unfortunately hindered by investors who ultimately let him down.

During a conversation with DJ Slim, King Paluta shared these insights.

"My journey in music has been a long-standing one. The challenge arises when initial supporters offer assistance but then retract it, causing setbacks.

"My recording career commenced in 2008, before the rise of the Tema music scene. It was Sarkodie's emergence that inspired many to pursue rap. I was already present in the scene when Asem's 'Give Me Blow' hit the airwaves."

In addition to his vocal talents, King Paluta also takes pride in his production skills, having crafted the beat for his successful track "Aseda".
