In a previous post, the ‘Wish Me Well’ singer opened up about his father’s reservations about his musical aspirations.
Alex Marfo was not initially supportive of Kuami Eugene pursuing a career in music, fearing that he might face similar struggles as he did in that field.
Instead, he wanted to shield his son from potential hardships and uncertainties.
However, Kuami Eugene’s passion for music eventually won over his father’s heart, and he embraced his son’s artistic journey with pride.
“Buh thank God learning from you helped me correct all the mistakes you made. Live long Daddy, for all I have and will ever achieve, is for both of Us. The Original RockStar,” he wrote.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Kuami Eugene and his family during this difficult period.
May they find comfort in the cherished memories they shared with Alex Marfo and find solace in the knowledge that his legacy lives on through the music and artistry of his talented son.
