"I am still suffering from it, and I had no idea what conversation sparked the fact that it should be Kuami Eugene, but after I did the chorus out of the first verse I heard from my senior man (Sarkodie), it ended up that way."

Kuami Eugene denied affiliation with the NPP despite featuring on the Happy Day song and said he was disappointed with the backlash and having to explain himself to critics every time.

The Lynx Entertainment signee, who recently released his song, Belinda, said that some individuals constantly launch personal attacks on him on social media.

Kuami Eugene added that he was focused on his music career and had no interest in aligning himself with any political party.
