The father of dancehall act and serial ‘heart attack’ giver, Ebony, has jumped to the defence of his daughter, who many have tagged as a bad girl.
Ebony performs in sultry attires, dances suggestively, and even once gyrated on a male supporter on a bed mounted on the stage during a performance.
All these, plus her ‘i don’t care’ attitude when asked about it, has created a ‘bad girl’ vibe for the star.
Yet according to her dad, Nana Poku Kwarteng, his daughter is nothing like that image she portrays and it’s only a professional persona she has built.
“My daughter is not a bad girl, she is very calm, loving and a respectful person.” he told Showbiz in an interview. “Whatever she does on stage ends there. She is a different person when she gets home”,
“I know my daughter than anyone else. What people see out there is what we want them to see and that is because she is an artiste and needs a brand that will sell.” he added.
“For God’s sake, she is a Dancehall artiste and she wears what will make her feel confident when performing on stage. Something that will depict the genre of music and songs she churns outs”,
Mr Kwarteng revealed that he was unhappy when his young daughter dropped out of school to pursue music, but he supported her because he could see that was what she really wanted.
“My girl as I usually call her is close to my heart. We are so close that I gave her the go ahead when she told me she wanted to do music.
“Initially I questioned her decision because, she is a very intelligent girl and was doing extremely well in school and every parent will want his or her child to get to the top of the highest academic ladder.
“But she insisted music was what she wanted to do. Music is where her heart is and I gave her my blessings. I couldn’t have stopped her because these children are smart”,
Finally, Mr Kwarteng said he 100% supports his daughter and that he’s not ashamed of her at all, calling Ghanaians hypocrites for always being on her case.
“I am supportive of anything my daughter does and anything she wears. I am not ashamed as a father, the truth is that, I choose what she wears and I bless her before she goes out to perform. Some Ghanaians are hypocrites and I am sorry but I am not one of them,” he revealed.
