In an interview with Showbiz, Kobby Simple, real name, Kobina Abavana said his primary motivation for Adisa was to produce a breakthrough single which would propel him to mainstream music after many years being underground.
“Adisa is a classic Highlife song and kudos to Sarkodie for doing his magic on the song. Sarkodie was recording his Mary album when he did my verse so I believe he was still in his element and he brought that to bear on Adisa,” he said.
He told Showbiz that he has been doing music for almost six years now and relocated to Accra after graduating from the University of Cape Coast in order to pursue music fulltime.
