Ghanaian songstress Nana Yaa has expressed shock over claims by legendary Highlife musician, Kojo Antwi that he tried to help her have a stable musical career.
Kojo Antwi in an interview stated that he had tried several times to produce an entire album for the singer, but his efforts were thwarted by the people around her.
He stated “if you speak to Nana Yaa she will tell you. Many times I call and I say, Nana, I want to write a whole album for you, produce it, just sit back and sing.”
Debunking the claim, the ‘Handkerchief’ singer stated that she would never reject any offer from the legendary music to help her career.
“This a big shock to me. The platform that Kojo Antwi has given to me from when I started singing professionally is huge, and I always give him credit for it…do you think I would have refused somebody like Kojo if he had come to me and said, ‘Nana, I want to do this with you, I want to help you’, do you think I would have said no to that?” she quizzed.
“He’s spoken to me about some few ideas about things he wanted to do, it was like in passing, that was it. He didn’t mention it anymore. He never called me and said ‘Nana, I want you to come to the studio,’” she disclosed.
The ‘Hunny’ singer, also addressed the Music Maestro’s claim that the people around Nana Yaa are responsible for her unresponsiveness.
“If there’s something and he wants to come to me or whatever, there’s no one around me or in my life that Kojo would have a problem with because everyone around me and everyone that’s ever been around me, Kojo knows and he’s cool with them,” Nana Yaa said.
