- Adane Best, a seasoned highlife musician whose true name is Joseph Amoah, feels that he deserves to be recognized for his contribution to the creation of excellent Ga music over the previous three decades.
- To the ‘Ayitey’ hitmaker, after music group Wolumei became inactive he has been very instrumental and till date his songs are still relevant.
- According to Adane Best, it takes a talented musician to be this impactful and the Gas don’t joke with him because of the role he has played.
- “I can declare with pride that I popularized the Ga language through my music. The majority of my songs are in Ga, and everyone like it. There isn’t a significant Ga event that I haven’t been scheduled to perform at. In fact, the Gas treat me like gold, and I don’t take that for granted,” he recently said in an interview with the Graphic Showbiz.
- Adane Best stated he grew up with his grandfather, who was residing in Adedenkpo near Palladium in Accra, despite the fact that his parents are not Gas and many believe he should be singing Twi songs. He claimed that because he had to learn Ga because he had lived with his grandfather for the majority of his life.
- Even though Adane Best claims that the Gas value him highly, he feels that as a solo musician who has been doing this for 30 years and is still active, it is insufficient.
- “I have been busy for the past years playing shows all over the world. The reason Nigerians are always ahead of us is because they cherish and acknowledge their veteran musicians. The 2 Face, The P- Squares are highly respected by their musicians and the entire country. Here in Ghana it’s about who has the biggest song at the moment and no one regards you if you don’t have that trending song. They easily forget the contribution you have made with your songs in the past,” he said.
