“I was able to travel because of music, I even came to Accra because of music because I’m a Tema boy and in Tema we don’t like travelling out to Accra,” he added.
He noted that the constant travels have broadened his horizon and enabled him to meet new people he ordinarily wouldn’t have had the opportunity to meet and for that “I’m grateful.”
To Kwesi Arthur a great musician must have passion for what he does and must be dedicated to the craft.

Kwesi Arthur rose to fame in 2017 with the hit single “Grind day”.
He is currently promoting his latest album titled “Son of Jacob”.
The album which has 15 songs features the likes of Nigerian Adekunle Gold, Joeboy and Teni among others.
