Old tweet criticism not having an impact on business but getting threats rather – KiDi
KiDi appeared as a guest on the Daybreak Hitz program on Accra-based Hitz FM today, Monday, October 3, 2022.
When asked if the social media backlash over allegedly nasty tweets he sent out as early as 2012 had damaged his music career, the prolific hitmaker said, “Not that I know of.”
“I mean, I would have wanted all that attention to go to my EP, that’s what I would have wanted, but at a period when it was occurring, I had this weird state of mind,” he continued after murmuring that under his breath. I thought, “Wow! Where were all these people when I released the EP? People are coming out and attacking me.

He provided the following comment when asked if the criticism had affected the streaming of his music: “Not much. Although these things won’t be known for a while, work is still being done.
The Ghanaian international music act said, “I couldn’t even afford to take a step back to reboot and recalibrate, because there is work to be done, so no matter what you’re going through, you have to be up in the morning, and ready to go.” The Ghanaian international music act was on a European tour when some Twitter users started uncovering and spreading said old tweets on Wednesday, 28 September 2022.
Additionally, Mr. Dwamena disclosed in the interview with Andy Dosty that since the event on Twitter on September 28, he has been receiving threats.
I’ve been receiving threats for, what, 4 or 5 days now, he added.
My entire family is being hit by gunfire. Without elaborating on the threats he was receiving, he continued, “Even those who have nothing to do with the problem are taking heat.
KiDi currently has his second extended play (EP), titled “4Play.”

DEBUT ALBUM: Miriam Mandipira & The Soul Family
DEBUT ALBUM by Miriam Mandipira & The Soul Family!
You’ve never heard a voice like Miriam Mandipira’s. Undeservedly, she doesn’t take credit for the power or presence she delivers. For Miriam, music is much more than just notes and words. It’s
magic. And faith. You can experience it LIVE and on the album, which is set to be released on September 1st.
She has been singing for as long as she can remember, growing up with her ears glued to the radio.
From the moment her school teacher asked her to sing in class, the rest has been history. From Africa to Denmark, from Book Café in Harare to Mojo Blues Bar and the big concert halls. From
Danish Radio Big Band to the Royal Theater. Music is music, and Miriam is the music.
“But it’s not about me when I sing. I’m just the instrument, and when I’m on stage with my band, I sing from a place that’s not about rules and technique but about emotions,” says the singer, who is
seriously trying her hand at songwriting – together with her Soul Family on the album “Ndiwe”, which means ‘you are the chosen one of my heart.’ The overall message is impossible to ignore
Love.
“Call me a soul singer, call me a jazz singer. I don’t care. Good music is good music, and I love interpreting other people’s songs and being inspired. At the same time, I think it’s great to try my
hand at creating and writing the songs myself – and with my friends in the Soul Family, I have found my place. They are my family, and the curiosity and respect we share are fantastic.”
You can experience that up close when Miriam & The Soul Family take the stage. The enthusiasm for music and communication is impossible to ignore and hear.
“I love to maintain the feeling of being a child. It’s an excitement and curiosity that keeps me going, and that’s why I’m so excited about every single concert – no matter how small or large it is.
Otherwise, I would never do it. This is not just a casual thing. This is a life, and everything means something,” says Miriam, who began her years in Denmark by jamming at Mojo Blues Bar, building a network.
