Broadcaster Abeiku Santana has highlighted Bisa Kdei's role in impacting modern highlife music.
According to Abeiku Santana, Bisa Kdei's contribution to the genre has paved the way for contemporary highlife musicians.
"Bisa Kdei deserves huge credit for what he has done for highlife music in Ghana. He managed to set a trend that has been followed by many of today's popular musicians including King Promise and Kuami Eugene.
