Ghanaian gospel musician SK Frimpong has shared his story of how his first two professional studio albums failed woefully.
SK Frimpong, now regarded as one of the best gospel worshippers in Ghana, told Sokoo Hemaa on Rainbow Radio Accra that the failure of his first two albums made him concentrate on live worship.
He said he was also doing live worships on the radio, and he loved that, hence the decision to put more effort into that since his first two albums didn’t put him on the map.
“My first album was in 2012, and I must say that it was a total failure. I listened to the project with my family because it didn’t go well. I did an album launch but couldn’t break even. They were nice songs but didn’t go.”
“I couldn’t go to church for 6 months because the project was a failure. The second album also didn’t go, even though it had a little airplay and all that, but in general, it didn’t go. So I decided to focus on worship since the songs weren’t really going as I wanted,” SK Frimpong said on Rainbow Radio Accra.
He added that “things were difficult and people really didn’t understand where I was going, and it was one worship song I had done that went viral, and it finally put me on the map. They were songs I performed at UCC during an event, and they went viral. That song blew, and my subscribers increased rapidly to 100,000.”
