As tributes continue to flood social media following the passing of Highlife legend Dada KD, new details have emerged about the veteran musician’s final days, revealing a heartbreaking story of silent emotional battles behind a strong public image.
In a phone interview with Zion Felix, Renowned media personality, Nana Romeo, disclosed that although the “Somu Gye” hitmaker appeared physically healthy and was actively preparing for an upcoming show in london, he was silently battling deep emotional struggles.
“He looked fit. He never complained of any sickness. In fact, he was recently on my radio show and looked completely fine,” Nana Romeo revealed. “But when you spoke to him one-on-one, you would realize that financially, psychologically, emotionally, he wasn’t a happy person. He was going through a lot in life.”
Nana Romeo further recounted how he got to know about the heartbreaking news. According to him, he started seeing posts on social media with captions like “Rest in Peace” and questions asking whether Dada KD had died. Shocked and confused, he immediately reached out to the artist’s manager for confirmation.
“The manager sounded broken. There were tears in the manager’s voice. She confirmed the news and told me that when he got to Dada KD’s house, the legend wasn’t talking, wasn’t active. They rushed him to the Gbawe Hospital, but sadly, he passed away this evening,” he said with sadness.
The radio presenter also revealed that Dada KD was in the middle of preparing for a major show in the UK scheduled for next week. “We were seriously working on it. Everything was being arranged,” Nana Romeo noted.
For now, the actual cause of death remains unknown. The family and management are awaiting a full medical report from the doctors.
Nana Romeo extended his deepest condolences to the family, fans, and the entire nation, emphasizing how much of a loss this is to Ghana’s music industry.
Dada KD, born Dada Kwaku Duah, was known for timeless Highlife classics such as “Fatia Fata Nkrumah,” “Somu Gye,” “Honest Love,” “Odo Mu Anigyie,” amongst others. His music touched hearts and told stories that resonated with many across generations.
