Ghanaian music producer JMJ has addressed rumours about the departure of his former artiste, Kaakie, from his Xtra Large Music record label.
In a conversation on Daybreak Hitz with Andy Dosty, JMJ shed light on the reasons behind their split.
According to JMJ, Kaakie wasn't passionate about pursuing music as a long-term career.
He recounted that he once heard Abeiku Santana ask Kaakie on radio if he had ‘chopped’ her money or done anything bad to her but she said no.
“What I know that you people didn't know was that Kaakie loved music, but she wasn't passionate about it,” he noted.
JMJ further explained that Kaakie's busy schedule, balancing university life and music, made it challenging for her to dedicate time to her craft.
“Kaakie didn’t have time for music but she was soo talented that,just 10minutes in the studio would blow your mind. So she had little time, and don't forget, she was also in school. She was in Uni at the time, and nursing is not an easy course. So she was balancing the two, which I understood. But the truth of the matter is that Kaakie loved music, but she didn't see music as a long term career that she was going to pursue,” he added.
JMJ's revelation provides insight into the reasons behind Kaakie's departure from Xtra Large Music.
It appears that Kaakie's priorities shifted towards family life and education, leading her to pursue other paths.
Meanwhile Kaakie has announced that she will soon return to active music business.
