Friday evening, @ChurchOfStories is bringing back Goodbye, Gold Coast an audio drama written & directed by @JoewackleGh, with me as co-writer.
It’s a story set on the eve of Ghana’s independence. Feels right to have this listening session during our Independence week!
When we formed The Cue, the vision was to find a way to break down the door for Kumasi so all the rest of us could walk in. Cabum was already at that mid point where he was huge in the city but not big enough across the country (especially Accra where it mattered at the time). The day we did this photoshoot, we did it with the belief that one of the people in this picture was going to be the one who finally opens the door for the rest of the family. Lousika seemed to be the likeliest (had the looks, the work ethic and was the biggest at the time). I was the second likeliest because I had built a cult following online and I was a social media marketing genius. Eazi had the highest ceiling because he was Nigerian but he was too on & off with music to trust. K Danso was the wildcard. Kankam, who was easily the most talented wasn’t in the picture because he was unsure of his path. The funny thing is, the person who finally broke down the door, wasn’t in this picture or in consideration to be in it at all. His name is Atumpan and his song ‘The Thing’ produced by @peewezelcue (our patriarch) went as far as the BBC charts in London spearheading the Afrobeats revolution through DJ Abrantee.
#Episode 1, Stories I Never Told
(From time to time I’ll post old and new pictures and tell some of the stories I never told. Some of them would be inspired by the pictures, others will be about the pictures and some others will have nothing to do with the pictures. As for the moral of these #Stories, I’ll leave that to you.)

Hello Twitter,
I'm not sure if you know, but six years ago, I started a book club. We meet the last Tuesday of every month online to discuss a book written by a Caribbean or African author.
We love meeting new people and you're welcome to join us.
Had a great time working together with @carlahall & @ChefAdjepong on the Ghana 🇬🇭 episode of #ChasingFlavor. My congratulations to you, Carla. Looking forward to the February 1 premiere on @StreamOnMax.
Jan 5th - On the final day of the takeover you'll be able to find me in the @jambospaces podcast space recording an episode of my @orokoradio show #CatMamaWorld with a very special kitten, I wonder who it could be?
This is generous of you; thanks a lot for the kind words!
I'll send screenshots to Annertey 🙏🏾
To add to your point, I'm Akan, Guan and Ewe.
The book is very Ghanaian and we're grateful everyone loves it!
I appreciate all the positive energy sent my way through this tweet so much. I tweeted this so people will see that we all go through it (yes, even those of us who use our art to motivate others). It is okay to have bad days and to need encouragement from time to time. It’s okay to share it with others too. So much love was shared in different ways on this tweet. I’m going to quote some of the responses and what they taught me. May all the positive energy sent my way bounce back to the rest of the world in waves.
Q: As an artiste starting out & focused on Ghana, is there a magic number of fans for me to blow?
Me: We’re talking about engaged fans who you contact/engage with at least once weekly right? Then aim for 730k.
Here’s the math👇. Thoughts?

The love people have for this album still surprises me. Saturday was one of the best times I’ve ever had on stage. After a 4 year wait I’m really glad you showed up and enjoyed the show as much as you did. It was a necessary night. This is a tweet to thank you for showing up and showing out; and also to thank the people who made this show a special one - as our people say, it takes a village;
