Ofori Amponsah ‘betrayed’ Barosky over ‘Netflix’ deal - Appietus alleges

Ghanaian music producer Appietus has levelled serious allegations against highlife musician Ofori Amponsah following reports about the unfortunate condition of his colleague Barosky in the United Kingdom.
Barosky, famed for his contribution to some of Ofori Amponsah’s biggest hits, notably his catchy hook on the popular 'Abele' song, was recently interviewed by Nana Romeo, during which he was captured in a deplorable state on the streets of the UK.
During the interview, Barosky expressed his desire to return to Ghana, stating that there is nothing left for him in the United Kingdom.
Several industry players have since shared their views on the current state of the once-thriving musician.

Joining the ongoing discussions surrounding Barosky, Ghanaian music producer Appietus alleged in a live TikTok session with Andy Dosty, shared on social media, that Ofori Amponsah kept money from a Netflix deal instead of sharing it with the other artistes involved.
“The reason why I was fighting with Ofori was because of the Netflix deal and the percentage Ofori gave me. He told me he was going to give Kofi Nti and Barosky, but he didn’t give any of them the money. If Ofori says I am lying, you can call him on the live.

“It became a serious fight between us, but I didn’t want to talk about it. As a producer, I was supposed to get 50 percent, but because he said he would give the boys some of the money, I understood. Now look at Barosky’s current situation,” he said.
Further explaining the movie deal, Appietus disclosed that the film, titled “The Kitchen,” in which “Odo Nwom” was featured, paid a substantial amount of money.
“There is this movie called The Kitchen. It was a UK movie, and they featured parts of Odo Nwom. I know Ofori was not fair to this guy. I have made a lot of calls, and I am also willing to help so that he is brought back to the country," he stated.
Appietus also cautioned people against spreading what he described as false narratives about Barosky, stressing that nobody knows what the future holds for him.
“I don’t like the way people are tagging him. He is not that type of person. But the way some people are speaking badly about him is so painful. If someone had told him that this was how things would end, Barosky would not have believed it,” he added.
