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.
"Unlike the era of Ofori Amponsah and others, Bisa Kdei brought a new vibe to highlife that has been embraced by the likes of Kofi Kinaata, King Paluta, and the like," Abeiku Santana said on Okay FM.
Abeiku further explained that Bisa Kdei's ability to modernise highlife without losing its essence has also made the genre more appealing to both local and international audiences. This, Abeiku Santana believes, is a testament to Bisa Kdei's talent and vision as an artiste.
"Bisa Kdei made highlife relevant again, and that is no small feat. He created a path for others to follow, and that is something we should all celebrate," Abeiku Santana added.
Bisa Kdei, who is known for hit songs like 'Mansa', 'Brother Brother', 'Asew', and his latest 'Boso.'
