Ghanaian music sensation King Paluta has opened up about his journey in the industry and the attempts by some individuals to discredit his craft.
According to him, the negative publicity surrounding his work is simply part of the industry.
Speaking in an interview on TV3’s Afternoon Show, King Paluta stated that he and his team always had a strong intuition about a song’s success, even before its release.
Hence, he was surprised when some industry players initially claimed that his 2024 song Apiki was a flop.
“I knew Aseda was going to be a hit; we just knew Makoma was going to be a hit. We get the feeling before we release it. So when we dropped Apiki and some people were saying the song was a flop, we were like, ‘Do you even know what you’re listening to?’” he said.
Despite the criticisms, King Paluta remained unfazed, acknowledging that such claims were part of the industry.
He emphasised that as long as no one was directly harmed by the stories put out about him, he was unbothered.
“It’s all part of the agenda, this is Ghana. Anytime someone new rises, people want them to win, but not more than themselves.
“I understand that side of the hustle, and I’m cool with any publicity I get, whether good or bad. As long as it’s not really affecting anyone, I’m cool,” he stated.
