Mr Muzic Mensah released “Obi Be Su” on July 6, 2023, after transitioning from gospel to secular music due to the lack of support from stakeholders and music promoters, despite his efforts in the gospel scene.
His shift to secular music sparked some controversy and criticism, but Mensah remained undeterred, continuing to produce and collaborate with other artists, including Strongman on the track “Babe.”
Among his releases is the song “Joohami,” which gained traction on social media, with popular Ghanaian dancers Afonitaa and Abigail showcasing their moves to its catchy lyrics.
Through perseverance, hard work, and dedication, Mr Muzic Mensah has achieved this significant milestone, securing his place in the highlife music scene. Congratulations to him on this well-deserved award!
