Andy Dosty, Okyeame Kwame, Bradez
Host of Hitz FM’s morning show, Andy Dosty, has revealed that he played a key role in encouraging hiplife duo, Bradez, to operate independently from their elder brother, Okyeame Kwame.
Speaking on Hitz FM, Andy admitted to advising the duo—Flowking Stone and Kunta Kinte—to leave their brother’s mentorship to establish themselves.
He also apologised to Okyeame Kwame, who appeared on his show, for the decision.
“I had to whisk him away because I felt like his clouds were hovering, and at a point, I needed the boys to break out. It was like Okyeame Kwame and the Bradez, so I called him and said, ‘Leave there, move away, let the boys be; they will survive,’” Andy said.
Okyeame Kwame acknowledged that he was initially reluctant to let Bradez go, as he had a personal vision for their careers. However, he admitted that Andy’s advice turned out to be the right decision.
“I had plans, and I was attached to the plans. Kunta was like my son; when my father died, I raised him. I had ideas that this guy was going to be the musician I never was. But I think it was the best advice you gave to us because it worked,” Okyeame Kwame noted.
Andy further explained that separating Bradez from Okyeame Kwame allowed the duo to grow independently while enabling Okyeame Kwame to focus on his music career.
Bradez, known for hits like Simple, Dondo, One Gallon, and Flashe, gained prominence while working with Okyeame Kwame but later established themselves as a successful act in the Ghanaian music scene.
