Kuami Eugene inspired me to take up music production; he always came prepared- KiDi
One time “Artist of the Year” at the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMAs), KiDi, has shared the story and the inspiration behind taking up music production.
According to the Lynx Entertainment signee, he took up music production because of his label mate, Kuami Eugene who was excellent at it at the time they were both signed on to the label.
In a recent appearance on the “Sincerely Accra” Podcast, KiDi shared that Kuami Eugene’s extraordinary talents at singing, writing, producing made him stand out, and always prepared, but for he (KiDi), he had to always rely on label boss, Richie before he could make music; a situation that compelled him to learn how to produce himself.

“One of the reasons why I actually learnt how to produce was the fact that Lynx at that time had signed Kuami Eugene and he came fully prepared; he was a producer, a writer, he played an instrument and could work quickly. So, every time Kuami Eugene has a new song to his name and I of course had to wait for Richie and if he’s not free then I don’t make music and I told myself that needed to change because the ideas in my head that I wanted to bring to life, I couldn’t. So, I told Richie, you know what, you need to teach me how to produce. So, Richie started teaching me, then he’ll leave me and I’ll don my own thing; practice, practice,” KiDi shared.

The “Likor” hitmaker added that he once he started taking lessons from Richie and started experimenting with his own sound, he got confident and has since produced hit after hit all by himself.
“I used to have a 9-5 job at the National Service Secretariat so after work I’ll loosen my tie, go into the studio, fold my sleeves and experiment and I made “Say you love me” and when I saw what it did, it gingered me more and I started building my confidence on production because I realised that as an artist, if you can produce, it influences your music and influences your sound,” he added.
