Reggie Rockstone Urges Support for Kwadee

Hiplife legend Reggie Rockstone has joined the conversation about the condition of fellow musician Okomfour Kwadee.

Many musicians and the general public have criticized the music industry and organizations like MUSIGA and GHAMRO for neglecting Kwadee in his difficult times.

Addressing the public outcry in an Instagram post, Reggie urged Ghanaians not to place all the blame on music organizations and the industry.

In his emotional message, he emphasized that Kwadee’s struggles require human compassion and support, not just the responsibility of the music industry or groups like MUSIGA (Musicians Union of Ghana).

He questioned what individuals are doing to help the artiste rather than pointing fingers at the music industry.

“I’ve seen some talk on Twitter and, you know, a little bit over here and there. And it feels like the public seems to be pointing their finger at the music industry, saying that the industry has to do something for him and all that. Everybody seems to be pointing the finger. And I just started to get irritated by this.

“The public needs somebody to point a finger at. And of course, yeah, he is a comrade musically. I get it. But you, the public, the ones pointing the fingers-what are you doing besides pointing the finger and talking?” he took to his social media page on February 10, 2025.

Known as the “Grandfather of Hiplife,” the hiplife pioneer highlighted his own endeavors to assist strangers and rehabilitate people, emphasizing that compassion should be shown to everyone, not just those in the spotlight.

“For years and years, this man-made beautiful music for you. If anybody should be as emotional as y’all are acting, it should be you,” Rockstone stated.

Rockstone also revealed that Kwadee’s situation is more complex than the public realises, with efforts ongoing behind the scenes to support him.

He called on fans to contribute in meaningful ways, starting with prayers and financial support if possible.

“Prayers-that’s a good start. Money, if you’ve got it. Love from the heart-anything,” he urged.

Kwadee, known for hits like Abrantie and Ofie Nipa, has been in and out of rehabilitation centres and is currently with his family in the Upper East Region.
