Ghanaian songwriter and rapper Okyeame Kwame, is one of the people who believe that a verse by highlife legend Daddy Lumba on King Paluta's 'For the Popping' will add lustre to the song.
Okyeame Kwame made this admonition in a video he posted on Facebook captioned: "All King Paluta fans who would love a collaboration with Daddy Lumba should type DL under this post. I will personally show it to him. Let's goooo."
Kwame, in the video, is seen in a pool, with King Paluta's song playing in the background.
While dancing to the song, he is therefore heard in the video saying "Hey, Daddy Lumba, you have to do a remix of this song. It is falls within your lane."
"King Paluta featuring Daddy Lumba for the popping. Apicke, apicke, apicke," he adds.
King Paluta's 'For the Popping', just like 'Makoma', falls under the Burger Highlife genre, which incorporates more pop and funk into Ghanaian local music.
A lot of people have attributed King Paluta's style on these two songs to Daddy Lumba because the latter, at the prime of his career, did a lot of song in the sub-genre.
King Paluta's style of dance also bears a striking likeness to Daddy Lumba's.
