Praye’s Cock & Bull Story: Why Can’t Ghanaian Musicians Work Together?

 
Sometimes I wonder why Ghanaian musicians cannot work together. The news of Hip Life trio Praye’s break-up came as a surprise to many, myself included because I have been a staunch follower of them.

When it comes to the number of hits any group has had over the years since the introduction of Hip Life, aside Buk Bak and VIP, the next group that comes in mind with so many hit songs are Praye, made up of Praye Tenten, Praye Ho Ne Ho and Praye Tiatia; real names real name Nana Adu Koranteng, Eugene Baah and Steven Fiawoo.

After several months of the break up, Praye Tenten has come up to speak on the break up. In doing so he denied all the allegations levelled against him by former mates, that he has grown wings hence the reason why he went solo.

He told Graphic Showbiz that, Eugene, the leader of the group told him, he didn’t want to see him around the group again because of a supposed issue. It is not clear whether the issue has to be with their normal girls-chasing-spree or whether it has to do with money sharing.

He said “I feel very bad that the two are treating me this way. The three of us have suffered in bringing up the group this far and I don’t think this is what I deserve after my contribution to the group”.

Explaining what happened. He said someone insulted their leader [Eguene], after which he and Eugene went to deal with the fellow. He continued that later he was asked to apologise and after his apology, the same Eugene told him he can’t be part of the group again. How possible? Read more.

Eugene on the other hand denies the allegation with “I don’t know why he keeps saying I kicked him out of the group, I never did that and will never do that, we are a group who were doing so well so why would I do such a thing” Eugene explained.

Seriously what’s the logic in this? When Nigerian acts always get hits upon hits and take big money to perform in Ghana, what the Ghanaian artistes will do is to fight themselves huh? How pathetic, but seriously why can’t Ghanaian artistes work together?
