Things may be going very well for the musician, KiDi, now; he has got chart-topping songs, the latest of which is Thunder, and he has had the opportunity to perform on some big stages.
And that is why it may be surprising to many when they find out that he almost gave up on music.
In an interview with Showbiz, KiDi says he almost gave up because things were not going well after he won MTN Hitmaker.
After he won Hitmaker Season 4 in 2015, he released some singles but they didn’t fly and that discouraged him.
“I almost gave up on music, before the Odo and the others, I almost gave up, because things were not going as planned.
I remember in December 2016, I went to church on New Year’s Eve and prayed and asked God to turn things around if this is what I was born for and that has been it since,” he said.
It’s good things turned around because now the only way for him to go is up and he is willing to put in the work for that to happen.
Born Dennis Nana Kwaku Boadi Dwamena, KiDi is an old student of Accra Academy and completed the University of Ghana, Legon.
He looks up to people like Justin Timberlake, Kojo Antwi, Chris Brown, Bruno Mars, and Usher.
When the 25-year-old is not busy in the studio or performing at shows, he spends his time watching movies.
He used to love painting as well but says doesn’t do much of that these days.
