Award-winning Ghanaian musician, Kofi Kinaata, has opened up about the turning point in his career, crediting his breakthrough in the music industry to dancehall singer Samini.
In an exclusive interview with GhPage’s Rashad, the “Things Fall Apart” hitmaker revealed that joining Samini’s label provided him with invaluable exposure and opportunities that shaped his artistry.
