Nana Kwame Ampadu (born 31 March 1945) is a Ghanaian musician credited with numerous popular highlife tracks and he is known to have composed over 800 songs.[1][2]
Ampadu's 'African Brothers Band' was formed in 1963. One of the founding members was Eddie Donkor.[3] He came to prominence in 1967 when he released his song Ebi Te Yie (or 'Some Are Well Seated'), a song that was seen as potentially critical of the then-governing National Liberation Council and disappeared from the airwaves, only returning after the end of military rule. In 1973 he won a nationwide competition in Ghana to be crowned the Odwontofoohene, or 'Singer-in-Chief'.[4]
His musical career has also involved him in electoral politics, including composing a song for Jerry Rawlings's National Democratic Congress party to use in the 1992 election campaign. Ampadu also released a song critical of an attempt to disqualify Rawlings from the 1992 election based on him being half-Scottish.[5]
Early life[edit]
Nana Ampadu was born at Adiemmra on the Afram Plains[6] in the Eastern Region of Ghana on 31 March 1945.[7][8]
