In an interview with DJ Nyaami, Nana Quame spoke fondly of the guidance he received, crediting Daddy Lumba for encouraging him to travel abroad, a decision he says has positively impacted his life in countless ways.

Nana Quame shared that during a pivotal moment in his life, Daddy Lumba advised him to consider moving abroad. The suggestion came at a time when the highlife musician was exploring ways to grow his career and improve his personal circumstances. Following this advice, Nana Quame eventually made the bold decision to relocate to the United Kingdom.

“Moving to the UK was one of the best decisions I ever made, and it all started with Daddy Lumba’s advice,” Nana Quame recounted. “If not for him, I wouldn’t be staying in the UK right now, and I’m very grateful for his wisdom and guidance.”

Nana Quame expressed profound appreciation for Daddy Lumba’s role in shaping his journey. He acknowledged that the move has opened doors to opportunities that have enhanced his personal growth and professional success.

“I really appreciate what he told me. It’s not every day that you get someone who not only gives you advice but gives you advice that changes your life for the better,” Nana Quame said.

Since moving to the UK, Nana Quame has enjoyed numerous benefits, including exposure to a wider audience, access to international opportunities, and a more stable environment for his family and career. The move also allowed him to connect with other creatives, further solidifying his position as a respected figure in highlife music.

Relocating has not only boosted his career but also provided him with a fresh perspective on life and the entertainment industry. Nana Quame continues to produce music that resonates with both Ghanaian and international audiences, all while remaining true to his highlife roots.

The relationship between Daddy Lumba and Nana Quame is a testament to the value of mentorship and camaraderie in the music industry. Daddy Lumba, a celebrated figure in Ghanaian music, has often been recognized for his ability to guide and inspire younger artists.

Nana Quame Reflects On Betrayal And Lack Of Appreciation In Showbiz

Veteran Ghanaian highlife artist Nana Quame has shed light on a painful experience in his career that has left him feeling deeply unappreciated. In an interview with DJ Nyaami, the musician, known for his timeless contributions to the music industry, revealed how his kindness and efforts to help fellow musicians were met with betrayal, significantly impacting his career and reputation.

Years ago, Nana Quame generously facilitated the travel of 25 individuals, many of whom were his fellow musicians, to the United States of America. This selfless gesture was intended to create opportunities for them to expand their horizons, build international networks, and grow their careers. However, the outcome of his goodwill was far from what he expected.

According to Nana Quame, some of the very musicians he assisted wrote a damaging letter to the U.S. Embassy, falsely accusing him of not ensuring the return of the people he sent abroad. This accusation tarnished his reputation with the embassy and led to serious consequences.

As a result of these allegations, Nana Quame faced difficulties in securing visas for himself and others he vouched for. He disclosed that during that period, several people associated with him were “bounced” when applying for U.S. visas.

“This happened years ago, but the betrayal still feels fresh. These were people I considered my colleagues, my friends. I helped them out of goodwill, but instead of appreciation, they chose to destroy my name. It was a very painful experience,” Nana Quame lamented.

The betrayal from his fellow musicians not only affected Nana Quame’s ability to travel but also had a lasting impact on his career and personal life. Being wrongly accused of misconduct damaged his credibility in the eyes of influential stakeholders, creating hurdles that he had to overcome to maintain his standing in the industry.

Despite these challenges, Nana Quame remains one of Ghana’s most celebrated highlife musicians, with a legacy that continues to inspire. However, the incident has left a bitter reminder of how ingratitude and betrayal can undermine genuine acts of kindness.

Nana Quame used the platform to address the need for unity, loyalty, and gratitude within the music industry. He emphasized that such betrayals not only harm individuals but also hinder the growth of the industry as a whole.

“As musicians, we should be supporting each other, not tearing each other down. It’s important to remember the people who helped us and show them respect. What happened to me is a lesson for everyone about loyalty and gratitude,” he stated.

While the events of the past have been hurtful, Nana Quame remains focused on his music and mentoring the younger generation of musicians. His story serves as both a cautionary tale and a call to action for greater appreciation and respect among artists in Ghana’s entertainment industry.

Nana Quame’s resilience and dedication to his craft are testaments to his strength and passion. Despite the betrayals, his contributions to highlife music and the Ghanaian music industry remain invaluable, and his legacy will continue to inspire future generations.
