I hope to reach Shatta Wale’s level -Kuami Eugene

Musician Kuami Eugene expressed his aspiration to achieve the same level of influence as fellow Ghanaian artist Shatta Wale, citing the latter as his benchmark. The "Angela" hitmaker revealed that his current priorities have shifted from releasing music frequently for financial gain to building a lasting legacy. In an interview on Pluzz FM, Kuami Eugene explained that he has reached a stage where money is no longer his primary motivation, as he enjoys considerable financial stability from royalties, publishing rights, and investments.

He expressed his desire to remain relevant without the constant release of new material, similar to Shatta Wale's situation. Currently, the award-winning singer is focusing on strengthening his reputation and consolidating his achievements. He described his career progression as an academic journey, comparing himself to a student at the University of Ghana Level 400, preparing to graduate.

Kuami Eugene further shared that he is deliberately reducing his output to test the loyalty of his audience when he takes longer breaks between projects. He intends to give his latest song "Stranger" more time before releasing another project, observing that TikTok's influence on music consumption has led to the expectation of a steady supply of new songs.

Despite his decision to slow down, Kuami Eugene remains committed to music, believing that his established fan base will continue to support him without the previous release schedule.
