Woes Of Kwaadee

After releasing just a single that has received tremendous praise throughout the world, Ebo?o has been approached by big record labels (?under wraps?) around the world. We (Ghana Music.com) have been bombarded with emails from internationally reputed record companies / labels about ?Ebo?o?, ?his music? and ?how big his image is in the Ghanaian music industry?.

Ebo?o has dazzled audiences with his innate charm and brilliant showmanship by performing at over thirty events in Ghana since December 2005.

Now that Ghana and some parts of the world is starting to know him through his single, 'Once, Twice' all he has to do is say the name "Ebo?o" and churn out a very good album and everyone will know who it is: Ebo?o (pronounced ?b?).

The Fanti native's long time wait is almost over: In less than one month, Ebo?o will release a full English and Twi album.


It seems like Ebo?o is not only pushing himself to go platinum with ?Once, Twice?, but also to be adored by kids around the world.

Ebo?o has a project dubbed ?Psalm 121? which offers support to kids in the society, and he intends to use his image to harness assistance from various institutions and organizations to provide aid to less privileged children around the world.

?I believe the kids are our future leaders, when we are gone from this earth they will take over from us. I want to touch their lives in which ever small way I can, so I plan to perform for free at every event organized for children or at every event/seminar addressing child related issues anywhere in this world and that is a fact?.

Ebo?o has also laid verses for some 'artistes' and is getting much love and push from DJs and Radio/TV personalities in Ghana.

Ebo?o intends to blaze his own path of glory, refusing to tread in anyone else's footsteps, no matter how iconic they may be. ?Am an afro reggae or afro pop artiste and the new one will be more appealing than 'Once, Twice' by the grace of the most high Jehovah of course?, he said.

Ebo?o got hold of his talents at an early age. The ace radio DJ started music before he went into radio. Soon, the aspiring artiste hooked up with Appietus through a friend who was then working on his compilation. After recording 'Once, Twice', the song went nationwide and fans go berserk anytime they hear it.

Ebo?o hit the recording studios right after his single was a success and has ranked himself high with some of the popular musicians in the country.

It seems success has always been shining on him. His music video has once been no. 1 for several weeks on Channel O.

At an event at Afrodisiac nite club, more than 1,000 fans turned up to hear his intoxicating tunes, making it the country?s largest show in a nite club.

His management team (Venus World Multimedia) have total belief in him. ?He is the first artiste on the record label. It?s the album for this Christmas and the whole of next year. Marketing will be done in Africa, London, Germany and worldwide".

For someone who has Bob Nesta Marley, Damien Marley, Buju Banton and Steel Pulse as his mentors, and Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and Kwame Nkrumah as his inspirers what more do you expect from him.

Already smiling with success, his new album is emerging as fire, which will appeal to all music fans. I have heard it and I endorse it. Ebo?o will make Ghana and Africa proud.
