  "summary": "Ghanaian musician Patapaa has named one of his newborn puppies Kuami Eugene, according to reports from Ghpage and 3News. In a video circulating on social media, Patapaa is seen interacting with the animal while repeatedly addressing it by the name of the fellow musician. 3News reports that Patapaa suggested the gesture should be taken as an honor and that Kuami Eugene should settle any dues owed for it, adding that the singer implied there was no difference between the puppy and the artist.\n\nThe stunt follows a history of tension between the two performers. 3News notes that their exchanges date back to 2018, when Kuami Eugene described Patapaa's music as having \"too much noise,\" leading to a diss track from Patapaa. More recently, Ghpage reported that Kuami Eugene described Patapaa's songs as less sensible, prompting Patapaa to post a clip of him on his WhatsApp status with the caption \"This Dog again.\"",
