Former member of Akyeame group, Okyeame
Quophi who is now a pastor was in the news sometime last week for saying
he regretted songs he did in the past and wish people would stop
playing those songs.
This didn’t go down well with the public and
in an interview on Okay FM, Okyeame Quophi disclosed that he was
misquoted. According to him, how can he asked people to stop playing a
song like Mensa aba and more.
“Abeiku, I didn’t say people should stop
playing my old songs, no, I was misquoted. How can I ask people to stop
playing a song like ‘Mensa aba? That song, just look at the creativity,
how we crafted the song, and then I would come out saying because I’m
now a pastor, people should stop playing my old songs, no.”
He continued, “When I did the interview on
Starr FM, I did say that everything that anybody ever does at any point
in their lifetime is good for the moment, it serves a particular
purpose, it might be out of fashion now, but for the moment that the
song was done it served a particular purpose but I didn’t ask people to
stop playing our old songs- just look at a song like Mensa aba, and I
would say people should stop playing a song like that, how? Okyeame
Quophi asked.
