Though we do not know what actually led to the breakup of the duo-Akyeame some years back, the feud that still exists indicates that the bitterness continues…
After taken over the music market with hit tracks like ‘Masan Aba’ and ‘Asa Aba So’, Okyeame Kwame and Okyeame Quophi ended their Akyeame partnership some years back—without telling fans what the issue really was.
It is being reported that Okyeame Quophi (who prefers to call himself Quophi Okyeame) nearly walked out of the studio of a radio station where he was being interviewed recently, simply because the host wanted to call Okyeame Kwame to establish the truth behind some allegations Quophi was putting out…
According to Graphic Showbiz;
Quophi Okyeame sounded like Okyeame Kwame had little or no songwriting ability during their days together. He said on Rainbow Radio that he (Quophi Okyeame) wrote all the songs during the Akyeame days. “I wrote all the songs on the five albums we produced as Akyeame because Okyeame Kwame is not a writer. The only song he wrote was Tintinto and even with that, I wrote almost all the lyrics,” Quophi Okyeame said.
Despite the superior sort of stance he had tried to assume on the programme, Quophi Okyeame seemed unhappy when he realised the producer of the show had called Okyeame Kwame on the phone for his side of the story.
Quophi Okyeame threatened to walk away from the interview if Okyeame Kwame was allowed to make comments.
“If you have called Okyeame Kwame, then I have to stop the interview because that is not the reason why I came here. I don’t know why you should call him. It is very unnecessary.
“I have a project I am promoting so I did not come here to wake up dead dogs. You are asking me about my life. I did not come here to spark a quarrel. You interviewed Okyeame Kwame on this same platform and you did not call me so why do you call him now?” Quophi Okyeame asked the programme’s host.
