A former member of gospel music group Shepherds, Charles Nelson, popularly known as Chief Charles has observed that hiplife grandpapa, Reggie Rockstone exhibits gross pettiness any time the issue of who the originator of hiplife pops up.
Chief Charles who is a regular panel member of Hitz FM’s Daybreak Hitz believes so many people contributed to the revolution in Ghana’s music and should be duly credited instead of Reggie Rockstone claiming to be the originator.
His comment comes on the back of an interview Ded Buddy, a former member of NFL, a music group formed in 1990 granted on Tuesday’s edition of the show where Buddy, now Cweci said people started the hiplife movement before Reggie Rockstone came to the scene.
According to him, Reggie Rockstone cannot be referred to as the originator of hiplife.
He, however, commended Reggie Rockstone for ‘doing a lot of work to push hiplife to the next level’.
Buddy’s statement that some people started the movement earlier did seem not to have gone down well with Reggie Rockstone as he tweeted that it was a sign of pettiness.
