I know of so many good songs that are not hits. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was difficult for a song like \u2018Chocho Mucho\u2019 by Bless to become a hit just because he didn\u2019t have the money to push it but other songs I don\u2019t even regard as songs are doing so well,\u201d he told Showbiz.<\/p>\n<p> Last month, Kofi Kinaata released a new song \u2018Never Again\u2019 featuring Shatta Wale and he says the backlash on social media is too much. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlthough I am no more with High Grade Family, the fans are not so cool with me featuring the SM Boss because they feel High Grade Family and Shatta Movement are not cool. Some said I am a sellout, others said I shouldn\u2019t have featured Shatta Wale,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p> According to Kofi Kinaata, he is cool with every musician and he doesn\u2019t mind featuring anyone he feels like. <\/p>\n<p>Asked who his new management is after exiting High Grade Family, Kofi Kinaata said he was on his own for now but was still looking for a committed management team to work with.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <\/strong><strong>I was born out of rape \u2013 Helen Paul reveals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Disk Jockeys (DJ\u2019s), the Confession hitmaker said DJs must be blamed for how good songs struggle to get attention:\u201cThe DJs will not play a song, especially from an up-and-coming artiste, but would prefer to play a bad song from a popular artiste which is not cool,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Kofi Kinaata explained that he would prefer to do a good<br \/>\nsong that would not be popular to a bad song that will be a hit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to be noted for doing good songs. Songs like Susuka, Sweetie Pie, Confession, Single and Free are great songs everyone can relate to and I am happy with the positive feedback I always get\u2026,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Kofi Kinaata cautioned musicians to place emphasis on the<br \/>\ncontent of their songs and not just release songs without paying attention to<br \/>\nwhat goes into them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have never written a song in anticipation of it becoming hit. My aim is first to get good lyrics and a good storyline for everyone to relate to. <\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE MORE: <\/strong><strong>Nana Ampadu convinced my mother to allow me do music \u2013 Akosua Agyapong reveals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it becomes a hit in the process fine and if it does<br \/>\nnot, I am not so bothered.
