I never had a ‘beef’ with Daddy Lumba— Nana Acheampong
Veteran musician, Nana Acheampong, has denied allegations that he and his highlife rival, Daddy Lumba were having a rift.
Though he admitted a lyrical battle against each other in their respective songs, there was no personal misunderstanding between them.
Addressing the misconceptions about him and Daddy Lumba in an interview, Nana Acheampong indicated that there was never any genuine ill will between him and Daddy Lumba, stressing that their “diss” tracks were strictly for entertainment.
“In my opinion, those songs were not made about me. I don’t consider them as targeted at me and vice-versa. These were just songs to entertain our fans. I have no beef song,” he explained.
The duo, formed a group known as the Lumba Brothers in the late 80s after meeting in Germany.
They eventually pursued solo careers, leading to speculations that they had a misunderstanding about money and women.
Contrary to popular belief, Nana Acheampong explained that their separation was amicable, with no underlying issues of money or personal differences.
“People thought it was money or women. The fans were hurt because they had admired us as a duo of young talented music performers and breaking up, for them, was a signal that something big had caused it,” he added.
Acknowledging the rivalry that emerged among fans following their split, Nana Acheampong likened it to the intense competition between football teams Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko which he claimed made the industry more entertaining at their time.
