Renowned rapper and songwriter Martin King Arthur, better known by his stage name Kofi Kinaata, is from Ghana. He has thanked everyone who helped him along the way in his music career, but claims that none of them found him.
In response, Kinaata addressed the widespread belief among music lovers that the discovery of him by major players in the industry such as Castro, Samini, and Dr. Pounds was the main factor in his ascent to fame.
The hitmaker of “Effiakuma Broken Heart” emphasized that they did not find him and that he was already performing music when he first met them.
Kinaata clarified in an interview with Tony Best on Akoma FM’s Entertainment 360 on Saturday. “The subject of discovery is sometimes overused or overemphasised. Discovering someone means unearthing a raw potential and letting the individual realise his or her talent, that’s what I call discovery”.

“I am grateful to all these personalities for their sterling contributions to my music career, they put me on a good pedestal however i don’t owe my talent and music career to them”.
“When Dr. Pounds met in Takoradi, I had been selected to be part of a rap competition which I won eventually, this means I was doing music already”, he said.
The EP “Kofi oo Kofi” by Kofi Kinaata is presently being promoted.
