Highlife artiste Kuami Eugene has officially announced he has inked a distribution deal with Empire Africa.
After 6 years of mentorship, 2 albums, international tours, 2020 VGMA Artiste of the Year award and a shelf full of other awards, Kuami Eugene is ready to move on.
He announced in a tweet he has joined other Ghanaian counterparts in Empire Africa label, an African extension of global record label Empire.
The announcement comes days after there were speculations of parting ways with Lynx Entertainment, hic current label.
However, his manager, Richie has debunked the claims, describing it as a mere unfounded rumour.
This was to counter a tweet, where Kuami stated he has had enough and he is more than determined to move on, adding that “the heart of man is wicked”.
Reacting to Eugene’s statements and calls on social media to bring clearance to the whole saga, Richie said the situation is more of mere speculations than the truth.
“I think sometimes the media shouldn’t give attention to every story. That’s why I don’t say anything because what you do is you are now fanning unnecessary fires. Because whatever I’m saying right now is going to be written about. A story which isn’t even relevant is going to be continued”.
It is currently yet-to-be-known if Kuami Eugene has parted ways with Lynx entirely or if he remains under both managements.
Empire Africa has also confirmed he has joined them as a new family member.
He becomes the fourth mainstream artiste to be welcomed to the label; he joins label mate, KiDi, Black Sherif and Yaw Tog.
