“There’s More Tracks To Do For People To Cry With, So I Don’t Reply To Diss Songs” – Kofi Kinaata
There has also been this argument that beef and diss songs are healthy for the music industry, but Ghamaiam rapper Npow, a singer, revealed in a recent interview with Andy Dosty that he doesn't give attention to beef and diss songs.
According to Kofi Kinaata, there have been a lot of times his friends and team members have drawn his attention to the jab he has received from fellow musicians, but he has not given that attention.
Kofi Kinaata revealed in the interview that, as he said in one of his old songs, he has a lot of songs to be recorded, which will make people cry and take advice from them, so why should he be recording this song when someone is ready to jam to his songs?
