The deceased was a former factional Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN) National President. He became popular for his indigenous hit songs such as ‘Voom Kamma’, ‘Kpokom’, ’Ngozika’, ‘Figure 8 bu Akwa Nwa’ and ‘Kid Emperor’.

Highlife music, which the late performer specializes in, is a genre that started in present-day Ghana in the 19th century, during its history as a colony of the British Empire.

It uses the melodic and main rhythmic structures of traditional Akan music and Kpanlogo Music of the Ga people, but is played with Western instruments.
