The “Sheeshee” hit maker also mentioned that Okraku-Mantey was exceptional at his duties to the extent that he had a lot of the top musicians during a period who was working under his record label, Slip Music.
When I worked with his Slip Music, he had about 40 musicians: Daasebre Gyamena, Nana Kwame, Lord Kenya, Akyeame, Felix Bell, Adane Best, and a whole lot of musicians. So you can imagine someone like that no one knew at the time joining all these great musicians. It wasn’t easy but I felt proud working with them”, he added.
