Highlife artiste and song writer, Kofi Kinaata, believes he deserves the 2020 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards ‘Artiste of the Year’ more than any other singer.
He said he would have won ‘Artiste of the Year’ and ‘Most Popular Song of the Year’ if not for the coronavirus outbreak that called for the postponement of the show.

The ‘Things Fall Apart’ hit maker released more hit songs and had more deals than any other artiste in Ghana.
“As for 2019, hands down without sounding arrogant I am by far the artiste of the year and I’m not saying 2020. I did more than any artiste in that year with hit songs, several ambassadorial deals, numerous shows that I performed and on top of all I was adjudged the most influential youth”, he said on Radio Central in Cape Coast.
He also pinpointed that the opinions of others doesn’t matter to him.

When asked if he’s not afraid of Sarkodie’s monster banger ‘Oofeetso’, the singer said his song crossed more boundaries.

“There is an alcoholic drink called Bailey’s which is very expensive but you can only find it at night clubs. There is another drink called Coca Cola which is not expensive but you can find it at night clubs, churches, mosques and even Saudi Arabia where alcoholic beverages are not sold.
“That’s the horizon that ‘things fall apart’ attained, it was everywhere and that’s what we call most popular song” he explained.
Kofi Kinaata is out with a new tune titled ‘Behind the Scenes’ released on his birthday April 15.
