Kuami Eugene speaks about leaving Lynx
In an exclusive interview with Roselyn Felli on Joy Prime's Changes, Kuami Eugene noted that he had some good moments with the record label.
In the interview, he said that everyone at Lynx Entertainment agreed that he was mature enough to handle his affairs independently.
"Richie told me you are a big boy now to handle your affairs. He told me point blank that you are one person who cannot fail when you leave Lynx," Kuami Eugene said.
Recounting the fond moment with his former manager Richie, Kuami Eugene noted that they were on the rooftop chatting when he said those kind words to him.
The Monica hitmaker noted that Richie told him to prepare for the time when he would leave the record label because there would surely be a time like that.
"He told me to actually prepare before the time, and the time came," said the 2020 VGMA Artiste of the Year.
"Kuami Eugene is multi-talented" - Entertainment pundit
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, entertainment pundit Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh spoke about Kuami Eugene's exit from Lynx Entertainment and his survival rate in the music industry.
He noted that the Angela hitmaker was multi-talented and was not taken aback by the advice his former manager, Richie, gave him before his exit.
Mr Boadu-Ayeboafoh explained that the singer's possible hurdle might be good management that could take off from where Lynx left off.
"Kuami Eugene is a multi talented artist and I am not surprised Richie gave him those words of encouragement but his biggest hurdle is not talent but rather a management that can help him elevate.
The seasoned entertainment pundit opined that Richie's advice to Kuami Eugene was not a subtle jab at former Lynx Entertainment signee MzVee, whose music career has suffered recently.
"I don’t think it was a shade to MzVee but MzVee wasn’t as multi-talented as Kuami Eugene so I would understand why people might feel it is a shade."
