Ghana’s ‘Rockstar’, Kuami Eugene has shared that his music style has evolved overtime and does not sound like during his early beginnings in the music space.
The award-winning artiste acknowledged that he previously sounded more aggressive in his music when he started making headlines in the Ghana industry. However, he now exudes calmness in his songs.
In an interview on Y107.9 FM’s “Myd Morning Radio Show”, he shared, “The aggression I had 6 years is not as I used to sound as way back then and now lyrics-wise a lot of things have changed. The whole music entertainment has evolved and we don’t do things the same way.”
He recounted that he used to say so much in his songs at the time but for now he creates songs with fewer and simple words. He believes that this has been the latest trend in music as fans can easily relate and sing along.
Nonetheless, he reiterated that it is much more difficult now for artistes as they have to construct fewer words in their songs
“Right now everyone is putting very simple lyrics together and something that called and responded, something that everyone can sing along to. Think about it any big sing right now out there is just few words,” he said.
“Putting less words in songs have actually made the job very difficult. Because you’re saying really simple words and you have to keep them short. You wouldn’t have enough to say on the beat. It’s just two minutes. It’s not like way back when if you don’t do good on the first verse you can redeem yourself in the second verse and sometimes we used to do third verses, so you can redeem yourself in the third verse. Right now sometimes it’s just one verse, hook and the verse comes again and a chorus. So you have little to say. But then again you have to impress your listeners. So you have to always come up with your best and I mean your pen game should be amazing because you have just have two minutes to impress everyone,” he stressed.
The Lynx Entertainment signee recently dropped his latest song, “Single” his first song since he announced his partnership with international record and music distribution label EMPIRE.
