Highlife artist Jeida Rich (formerly known as Richie Rich) after a hiatus from the music scene, has made stunning revelations on our 1 On 1 interview.
The ‘Tasty’ crooner, came into limelight after being featured on CZar’s hit songs, “Mercy Lokko” and “Araba Lawson” upon being recommended to CZar by a family member.
The success of those two songs plunged him into the camp of multiple award-winning artist, Ofori Amponsah while gaining a feature on his hit tune “Emmanuella” as well as Kofi Nti’s “Akonta”.
According to Jeida Rich, several artists under the All 4 Real label owned by Ofori Amponsah such as KK Fosu, Kofi Nti and Barosky parted ways with the label after it refused to release quite a number of songs they had piled up.
Richy revealed that he was the last to exit the label after he was prevented from signing a very lucrative contract brought in by ace indigenous rap legend, Obrafuor, from telecommunication giant, Tigo.
He further fumed about the fact that the rights to his own written song while under the label was taken away from him and eventually forced him to walk out on them.
Apparently, his hiatus was due to being preoccupied with job demands of frequent travels to South Africa.
He hinted about the ongoing major rebranding into Jeida Rich due to a conflicting resemblance of his showbiz name to an old famous Hollywood movie character.
He, however, promised his fans of the same authentic Highlife vocals he is known for, which was inspired by legends such as Nana Ampadu, Oheneba Kissi, J.A Adofo and Adane Best.
After singing a few lines off his latest single ‘Akokome’, he announced that he was under new management known as Big Harry Productions and promised fans of a new album soon to be unveiled.
