Ghanaian hiplife artiste, Kaakyire Kwame Fosu, popularly known in showbiz as KK Fosu, has clarified his intent to perform at the 2024 TGMA after his accident that claimed the life of a blogger, John Claude.
In an interview with DJ Slim on Daybreak Hitz, KK Fosu shared his intention to honour the legendary Amakye Dede, even if it means performing in a wheelchair.
In an interview with DJ Slim on Daybreak Hitz, the musician said he received a call from Andy Dosty about honouring the legendary Amakye Dede. “I will sit in a wheelchair,” he said.
Although KK Fosu’s doctors and management team were against the idea, he planned on honouring the legend. He always wanted to use the platform to declare his comeback and first appearance after the accident.
“Because it was to honour Amakye Dede, even in my sickness I said I will go, they should give me a wheelchair and I will sing for the man to know highlife is not dead, that was my motive,” he noted.
He elaborated that he does not care if John Claude is dead, “I can decide to go and perform and take my money I don’t care if John Claude is dead and so what?”
KK Fosu continued to express his real nature stating that Ghanaians hate on you when you are real.
“Either you hate me or not you can’t do anything to me because I have God,” he said.
Detailing the performance to honour the legendary Amakye Dede, he explained that he managed to convince his management and began rehearsing Amakye Dede’s songs.
The musician recalled receiving a call from Andy Dosty on the morning of the awards night. “There has been a new development, he said from Andy Dosty”.
The artiste said, stating from Andy that Amakye Dede was concerned about his involvement in an accident and there was a life lost and if he should perform the fans would assume he is not concerned about the demise of John Claude.
The tragic accident that claimed Claude’s life occurred on Saturday, May 25, 2024.
John Claude was travelling with KK Fosu and Bless to perform at a wedding ceremony when their Toyota Camry collided head-on with a Benz.
The driver of the Benz attempted to overtake another vehicle when the crash happened. While KK Fosu and Bless both sustained broken legs in the incident, John Claude tragically lost his life. He recalled speculation about him dying during the accident and assumed appearing on stage to surprise fans who thought he was dead.
“That night people will cry and thank God because they have seen I’m not dead,” he concluded.
