Ghanaian highlife artiste George Kwabena Adu, popularly known as Kwabena Kwabena, has revealed that he once felt disrespected by a gospel musician.

The singer says he was dismissed as merely a highlife artiste attempting to create a gospel EP.

According to him, the musician’s response during their interactions made him feel like an outsider, “a worldly person” unworthy of venturing into gospel music.

Speaking in an interview with Doreen Avio on Daybreak Hitz, he opened up about this challenge, which occurred before his eventual collaboration with gospel artist Obaapa Christy on his seventh album, God of Restoration EP.

“There was one particular gospel artist for obvious reasons, I won’t mention the name, but I believe it was a bit disrespectful.

“She made me feel like a worldly person. I called her personally and she told me to speak with her husband”, she said on Hitz FM.

The musician further expressed appreciation to gospel musician Obaapa Christy for honoring his request for a collaboration.

The God of Restoration EP is a five-track project, with the first single, Fakyɛme, featuring Obaapa Christy.

Bullgod roots for Hajia4Reall’s return to music industry

Ghanaian artiste manager and entertainment pundit, Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson, popularly known as Bullgod, has expressed support for Hajia 4Reall’s return to the entertainment industry.

Speaking on United Showbiz on June 8, 2025, Bullgod stated that some critics are simply bitter about Hajia 4Reall re-entering the scene and picking up from where she left off.

“The only people that could survive in cells are those that are not outgoing people. Those that are introverts but if you’re claustrophobic, you will have problems. I like the energy she came with, I think two days ago, I saw that she stepped out to have fun and it’s good,” Bullgod said.

He stated that he thinks Hajia 4Reall is on the right path and only trying to move to the next level.
“I think she’s on the right path, she has picked up from where she left off in the game. We are not dropping in terms of quality, we are just moving forward to the next level. Whatever it is that anybody else thinks will be in the pipeline” he said.

He continued, “Maybe she has done the charity aspect and didn’t want to publicise because her team is a formidable team. It’s sad that people are always meddling into other people’s businesses.

“Those prominent people who are complaining about her, would be better for them to still be in jail because they have nothing going on in their lives. They are just bitter that the young lady is out and continuing where she left off. You can tell the bitterness when you read some of the comments,” he added.

Bullgod also took shots at critics of Hajia4reall, stating that it’s pointless to advise them. “We can’t advice a fool. When God came, he healed all sort of illness but not foolishness. So, if you’re a foolish, nothing can be done about it,” he added.
