Ghanaian sports journalist highlighted Gyan's love for music
Multimedia Group Limited sports journalist Lawrence Baidoo spoke about Asamoah Gyan's love for music in an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh.
He noted that for someone like Gyan, music had always been a part of him, adding that he featured on music projects with rapper Kofi Kinaata and the late singer Castro.
"From his days at Accra Academy through to the nation's team, he has been a fan of anything musical. His love for the drum or percussion has always been a form of getting his mind at ease before taking to the field."
Mr Baidoo further stated that music and playing musical instruments eased his mind from the backlash from Ghanaians and football lovers since he was the star of the Black Stars.
"It also serves as a way of taking your mind off criticism and doing something that, in the end, keeps you staying away from negative comments," Lawrence said about Gyan who still holds the title as Ghana and Africa's all time highest goal scorer.
