Patapaa sparks controversy again after naming newborn puppy after Kuami Eugene

Ghanaian musician Patapaa has taken another subtle swipe at fellow singer Kuami Eugene, this time by naming one of his dog’s newborn puppies after him.

In a video shared on social media, the "One Corner" hitmaker disclosed that his dog had given birth and he had chosen to name one of the puppies Kuami Eugene.

However, Patapaa made it clear that the name was not simply a gesture of admiration, using the announcement to mock the award-winning musician.

Speaking directly to Kuami Eugene, Patapaa suggested that the singer should consider himself lucky to have a puppy named after him. He also jokingly demanded payment from him for the honour.

“I have named one of my puppies after you, Kuami Eugene, so you should come and pay me. How many people have ever named something after you? You should be grateful to me and show your appreciation,” Patapaa said.

Patapaa went further to suggest that Kuami Eugene was no different from the puppy, making remarks that appeared intended to provoke his fellow musician.

Kuami Eugene is disrespectful and arrogant – Patapaa claims

The latest incident follows a recent interview in which Kuami Eugene reportedly named DopeNation as his preferred choice over Patapaa when asked which artiste he would like to work with.

Patapaa was unhappy with the response and took to criticising Kuami Eugene, bringing their differences back into the spotlight.

The disagreement between the two musicians goes back to 2018, when Kuami Eugene described Patapaa’s songs as “too much noise” during an interview.

Although Kuami Eugene later apologised, explaining that he made the comment as a joke, Patapaa responded by releasing a diss track directed at him.

Since then, the two have exchanged occasional jabs publicly, with Patapaa’s decision to name his puppy after Kuami Eugene providing another twist to their long-running rivalry.
