Sweet melodies, rhythms make us enjoy songs we don’t even understand the lyrics
‘Behind The Scenes’ hitmaker, Martin King Arthur known in showbiz circles as Kofi Kinaata has revealed that music becomes more enjoyable when infused with sweet melodies and harmonies.
He said in an interview with Doreen Avio on Hitz FM that even when the lyrics in the song and the language are barriers for understanding the songs, you can still enjoy the rhythms and melodies.
“I’m speaking Fante and even you sometimes you don’t get what I’m saying, what is a poem when you don’t understand the poem,” he said as Amansan Krakye monitored for MyNewsGh.com
