In an engaging interview with Giovani and AJ Sarpong on #3FMDrive on Tuesday, September 12, Amerado was asked about the inspiration behind the song.

Amerado added that he had prayed to God for a hit song every year, and he hoped this would be the one.

When queried about whether he had meticulously planned the song’s creation, Amerado responded with a remarkable revelation.

He unequivocally stated that the song’s emergence was not a result of meticulous planning but rather a “miracle”.

The rapper revealed that he recorded ‘Kwaku Ananse’ just a day before his journey to Kumasi.

As he drove to Kumasi, he tuned in to the song and felt its emotional impact deeply.

Currently, Amerado is actively promoting this latest masterpiece.

This revelation provides a unique insight into the spiritual and creative process of a rapper whose faith plays a pivotal role in his musical journey.
