Fast-rising Ghanaian rapper, Derrick Sarfo Kantanka, known by stage name Amerado has described 2020 as his year of blessings.

Speaking to Winston Michaels on Y 107.9 FM’s Shouts on Y he said, “2020 was not bad, it was a good year with the help of my team. For me I’ll describe my 2020 as a blessing in disguise”.

Giving more details on why he calls the year a blessing irrespective of everything, he said, “When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, most artistes were not really active. But my team and I came up with a concept called ‘Yeete Nsem’. This really boosted my confidence and my audience as well”.

He went on to say, “In 2020, I was able to drop a couple of songs and I was fortunate to have featured Fameye and Okyeame Kwame”.

Unlike most artistes who were not able to carry out all the plans they had for the year 2020, Amerado was able to accomplish almost all of the things he had planned out for the year.

He added, “All in all, 2020 was a great year for my career”.
