Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan has announced the suspension of his music career until his retirement from football.<\/p>\n
The Black Stars captain was featured by his good friend, Theophilus Tagoe aka Castro De Destroyer.<\/p>\n
With the moniker, Baby Jet Ewole Monko, Gyan quickly rose to fame with the release of the hit song ‘African Girls’ ahead of the 2010 World Cup.<\/p>\n
The song managed to win the collaboration of the year award at the Ghana Music Awards and this intrinsically motivated the footballer who has a passion for music to do another collaboration with Castro-‘Do the Dance’.<\/p>\n
But the Al Ain ace says he is taking temporal retirement from music career after his friend Castro went missing last July.<\/p>\n
\u201cSometimes at my leisure time I try to write something,\u201d he told AsamoahGyan3.com.<\/p>\n
\u201cI’ve got passion for it also despite what happened to our friend [Castro].<\/p>\n
\u201cI felt like I have to just stay out a bit maybe until the end of my career and after football try to do something with my music.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was very down when it [Castro’s disappearance] happened so I just try to stay out.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe is the only one I said to myself if I had to do any collaboration, it had to be just Catsro.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo now that Castro is not around I don’t think there is the need to do it.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I might do something after my career.\u201d
Gyan says he will instead be looking to invest in unearthing some budding musical talents in Ghana.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am just thinking to support some artiste, to support them but I have not yet decided who exactly to help,\u201d he added. My relationship with Castro was great, we were like brothers. So when I decide to help any artiste it is never going to be like what me and Castro were \u2013 talking about our relationship.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is just to help the artiste.\u201d
Gyan is currently with the Ghana national team in Spain preparing for the upcoming 2015 Africa Cup of Nations.<\/p>\n
