The world is full of surprises, who would ever believe that a graduate of Petrochemical Engineering will be the producer of a world hit song?
This is what Ghanaian producer Kros, the secret 'ingredient' behind Forever by Gyakie did.
Known in real life as Afun Constant, is a native of Kpando, a town in the Volta Region. He is a producer, singer, songwriter, and graduate in Petrochemical Engineering at KNUST.
In a tweet, he expressed his joy about how far the project has gone: 'I produced a beat whilst I wz on a freakn drilling ship ma guy. Sent it to @ElectroMirror that same day. 2 days later, mirror told me @gyakie had finished the song. Just 2 days ooo. Now that song has @Omah_Lay on it n it’s 1 of the biggest tunes to eva come 4rm the motherland'.
‘Forever’ is topping charts on Billboard and the Apple Top 100 in both Ghana and Nigeria. The remix has Omah Lay, a prolific artiste from Nigeria on it.
In another tweet, Kros advised producers not to rely on A-list talents but to try and build with emerging talents.
'So you’re an upcoming producer and you think your only breakthrough will be if you produce for a “major” league artist. Jack, shorn Dey lie your body. Find a good talent and send beats through ma guy!! Forget the quick money.'
How he blends his tiring occupation with his passion and still makes it look cool remains a mystery to us.
