Have you ever wondered the inspiration behind Kweku Flick’s penchant for composing songs about money?
He told Tilly Akua Nipaa on The One Show on Oneplay Africa that money answers all and there is nothing money cannot do.
“Money can do everything; maybe money can’t buy life, aside from that money can do everything,” he said.
“So I have money and I have God. He gives life and money does everything so with the two, I am cool, in every song I make sure I mention God’s name and money,” he added.
The ‘Bye Bye’ hitmaker also explains success as being real and having God, stressing that without God he would not be successful “without God I can’t write, if I don’t pray I can’t write songs, I can’t do music”.
Contrary to the notion that his favorite subject matter (money), may restrict him creatively, the young songwriter says that “it’s part of creativity so it’s cool, there are so many artists in Ghana but I stand for money so once you hear money you think of Kweku Flick and that’s cool and money shall never pass and that means I will never be a thing of the past.”
Also, there seems to be a strong music wave in Kumasi where most of the artists in Kumasi mostly feature each other in the region and are a bit reluctant to feature others from Accra.
Reacting to that Kweku flick said, “it’s not as though we don’t like to feature people in Accra but we have to raise Kumasi more because there are so many artistes in Kumasi who need features like that to be projected into the limelight”.
Talking about UK-based media, Noisey flying all the way to his home in Kumasi for a documentary on his music life, Kweku Flick stated that it means a lot to him and it has also motivated me to work hard to achieve more, big shoutout to Noisey”.
In giving back to his community, Kweku Flick has revealed that he has started a CSR for his school where he’s donating books and uniforms to his primary school.
Finally, Kweku Flick speaks on his latest single, ‘Attack’ that features prolific Rapper, Strongman and what the song entails.
