Highlife singer Bisa Kdei has recently addressed criticism labeling his music as “funeral songs,” asserting that such remarks do not impact him. In an interview with Adom TV’s Maame Boatemaa, Kdei explained that while some may attempt to undermine his work with this characterization, he remains unaffected.
He noted that funeral songs are often among the most beloved in Ghana, frequently played at significant events and widely appreciated by audiences. “People who have nothing better to do follow foolish trends. Someone started this agenda on Twitter, and it caught on,” Kdei remarked.
“But isn’t it true that funeral songs are some of the most popular in Ghana? We talk too much sometimes. Instead of supporting those who are working hard, some people make social media a platform for unnecessary comments,” he continued.
Despite the ongoing discussions surrounding his music, Kdei remains undeterred by the criticism. He emphasized that his main concern lies in how this conversation has gained traction on social media, rather than the comments themselves.
“It doesn’t bother me when they call my music funeral songs. It’s how they try to make it a huge agenda that’s annoying. Other than that, I don’t care. Everyone is built to talk about someone, but how you handle it is what matters,” he added.
