Gyedu Blay Ambolley exposed

Highlife maestro Gyedu Blay Ambolley has never been seen on stage without his trademark beret.

For him, that identity will not be done away with though he has some locations he goes without it.

“There are special places that I can remove it but not now,” the Simigwa Do man told TV3’s Owusu Worae over the weekend when asked what was underneath his trademark head cover.

“It is not about being bald. It is a matter of identification. Each and everybody have something that identifies that person and this is Gyedu Blay Ambolley’s identification,” he said.

It was apparent to TV3's reporter that Ambolley has a receding hairline and that may be the reason why he is always spotted in the beret.

Ambolley was born in the port city of Sekondi-Takoradi in the Western Region of Ghana, West Africa. He began his music career at the age of eight.

Ambolley has seventeen albums to his credit and has received numerous musical awards.
