“Kidi’s ‘Touch It’ Is A Dancehall Song, Those Saying Otherwise Are Just Ignorant” – Abu Sadiq

After winning this year’s 3Music Awards for Reggae/Dancehall Song of the Year, KiDi’s Touch It from the Golden Boy album has been in the headlines. Sadiq Abdulai Abu, CEO of the 3MUSIC Awards, claims that everyone who feels strongly about a music category acts out of loyalty to their favorites who lost out.

This enthralling discussion took place on TV3 NewDay with Berla Mundi as they reviewed the award show’s aftermath. According to Sadiq, the approach makes use of technical skills to assist in assigning the various inputs accurately.

“We spent two days in Akosombo discussing why Fameya’s Praise should be in the Highlife Song of the Year,” Sadiq remarked, citing Fameye’s praise as an example. We debated for a long time before asking for help from outside sources. Mark Okuraku Mantey is someone I know. As a result, we reached out to him. We dialed Rex Omar’s number. At one point, I believe we referred to him as Okyeamen Kwame. We made a few phone calls. Then, based on the ingredients and those who truly understand it, we all agreed that it had to be placed in the Afropop/Afrobeats song genre.

As a result, there’s a lot… We were looking at the aspects because if you don’t understand them, you’ll say things you don’t understand. Anyone who claims Touch It isn’t dancehall is ignorant of the genres. Pay attention to that aspect. Unless you have no idea. “

Sadiq also blamed the uproar on extremist followers of other musicians who didn’t win the accolade. However, I understand. Extremely uninformed fanaticism is on the rise, particularly on social media. They are also admirers of specific skills. So, when people lose it, they simply jump in without really comprehending or knowing what’s going on, and then make very dumb statements, “he said.
