Okomfo Kwaadee Angry With Airplay

Kwaadee At a time when many Hiplife artistes hover around Radio stations to get their songs played, Okomfo Kwaadee is rather upset with Radio Presenters for playing his song.

Okomfo is a household name in Ghana especially in the ?Kasahari?(HIPLIFE) circles. His unique Ragga singing patterns and the deep heavy twi words he spews out have singled him out on the scene as almost an iconic figure symbolic of one very powerful session of Hiplife;Raglife.

Kwaadee may be happy about the fact that lots of Radio Presenters are straining at the leash to start playing his third album but certainly not happy about his unreleased music being played all over the airwaves in the nation?s capital. This in itself is such a good credit to Okomfo because he is rest assured these Radio Presenters will play his music for free without payment of payola.

In a chat with Prime Eye at TV3 during a studio session, he said ?charley dis guys dey spoil the music cuz plenty things dey wey I for do for top?. Okomfo just returned from a trip in Amsterdam. Sources say he is likely to turn another page in Hiplife promotion history now that the strongest management anybody can think of, led by Akosua Puni, backs him.
