Kuami Eugene Reveals He’s Struggling After Appearing On Sarkodie’s ‘Happy Day’
Kuami Eugene, a Ghanaian highlife performer, has revealed that he receives constant insults for being on Sarkodie’s song “Happy Day.”
In an interview with Andy Dosty on Hitz FM, Kuami claimed that the song, which came out four years ago, has made certain music fans dislike him.
“I am still suffering for that [feature]. I don’t know what conversation sparked the fact that it should be Kuami Eugene, and after I did the chorus from the first verse I heard from senior man [Sarkodie], it ended up that way. Had to explain myself for the rest of my life that I am not a part of it when it comes to it being an NPP song.
I think it is a Kuami Eugene – Sarkodie conversation which didn’t lean towards that direction. The conversation was from a different direction, and later it went towards that direction. I just felt a little disappointed because I still pay for it,” he said.
According to him, he still gets a barrage of attacks over that feature.
“People ask me all the time that ‘you go sleep for UGMC, you no know say ebe Mahama build am,” he said.
Sarkodie’s song “Happy Day” was released before the 2020 general election. Despite being a party song, Sarkodie’s verse endorsing Nana Akufo-Addo’s reelection and praising his Free Senior High School program sparked controversy.
Sarkodie and Kuami Eugene were attacked by many who believed the song was a politically motivated composition for the NPP campaign.
