Renowned Ghanaian musician Gyedu-Blay Ambolley has expressed his opinion that his fellow singer Julius Kojo Antwi, popularly known as Kojo Ankwi, cannot be classified as a Highlife musician. Ambolley argues that the majority of Antwi’s songs lean more towards reggae tunes, which disqualifies him from being recognized as a Highlife artist.
During an interview on Kingdom FM, Ambolley elaborated on his stance, acknowledging that Antwi has garnered a significant following over the years due to his music. However, Ambolley emphasized that the genres of Antwi’s songs predominantly align with reggae rather than Highlife.
“We can’t call Kojo Antwi a Highlife musician because you hear more of reggae than highlife but people love it”, he told Fiifi Pratt on the show Afro Joint.
