Beloved Ghanaian musician\u00a0Daddy Lumba\u00a0has released a new song much to the surprise and rejoicing of his cross-generational fans.<\/p>\n
The song, spanning 5 minutes and 36 seconds, is titled \u2018Ofon Na \u0190di As\u025bm Fo (A Worthless Person Does Worthless Things)\u2019 and was sang in the Twi dialect of the Akan language.<\/p>\n
Lyrically, it is a blistering innuendo targeted at \u201cmen who gossip,\u201d “my many enemies,” detractors, gossipmongers and deceitful people.<\/p>\n
It opens with \u201cLet\u2019s be honest, some things are vexatious.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe made me think she was a virgin only to find out she is a community cup,\u201d he sings at a point. \u201cHe tricked me into second-hand clothes for our wedding.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you attack me and I don\u2019t respond, it\u2019s simply because I see you as superlatively worthless,\u201d he jabs at another close to 4 minutes in the song. \u201cI don\u2019t wallow in mud with the pigs.\u201d<\/p>\n
Since the Friday, December 23, 2022 release of the Highlife piece, social media has been rife with questions about what ocassioned the song’s creation and release.<\/p>\n
Early this month, DL, as is his nickname, wrote the song title on his Facebook. Some fans were of the opinion that he was responding to prior allegations of indebtedness and failure to honour his part of an endorsement deal by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Joy Industries Dr. Manfred Takyi, alias Jaydee.<\/p>\n
In the a viral video, Jaydee bitterly bemoaned the attitude of celebrities who have taken monies from his company to publicly endorse said company’s herbal products and also perform at its events but have done otherwise.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen you introduce your brand and tell them to post on their social media pages, they will tell you to sign a contract with them. Those times we had over twenty artistes on one platform, yes. Many of them owe us.<\/p>\n
\u201cEven\u00a0Daddy Lumba\u00a0owes us,” he alleged. “The money we gave\u00a0Daddy Lumba\u00a0and also customised a Tundra for him. Tell him to return our car. He had shows at which he was supposed to perform but failed to do so, not even half the show. Our money and car are with him. Today, they have turned their backs on us.”<\/p>\n
Before release and even disclosure of song title, DL, adverstised ‘Ofon Na \u0190di As\u025bm Fo’ as the 2022 Christmas banger.<\/p>\n
