Kwabena Kwabena once rose to prominence under the wing of Kontihene, who was once a big deal himself.
Many believe Kwabena Kwabena has comfortably achieved more success in music than Kontihene ever did and that seems to have stirred some jealousy in the latter, leading to the breakdown of their relationship.
Kontihene has been talking on the topic recently and according to him, he never knew Kwabena Kwabena enough for them to be called friends, even though they worked together for close to two years.
“Kwabena Kwabena has never been my friend. I worked with him and that was the end of the game.” Kontihene said.
“He doesn’t know me well to be a friend. We spent more than a year or two together. I am not sure. We only worked together. He was not my friend.”
Kontihene added that he honestly expected Kwabena Kwabena to achieve more than he currently has, considering the level he had already reached when they parted ways.
“I expected more from him, to be on a bigger level. I expect him to go beyond boundaries. I expected him to rise from where I ended” he said.
Kontihene featured on ‘Aso’, Kwabena Kwabena’s breakthrough single which cemented his name into Ghanaian musical folklore. He also produced the highlife star’s first album.
