In an interview with Nana Romeo, D-Black he clarified that Sefa and Nina Rose, the two female artists formerly signed to his label, are like sisters to him.
In his own words;
“I promise you, Sefa is my sister 100 percent. I’ve never even had a fleeting thought to have an affair with her. The Sefa I met is not the Sefa you guys see today. I knew Sefa from 7, 8 years ago, and she’s risen. That’s my sister 100 percent,” he stated.

Highlife legend, Gyedu-Blay Ambolley has argued that the current musicians do not make meaningful songs.
Speaking on the GhHighlifeShow with Ohemaa Acheampomaa, the veteran artist lamented that today’s artists have abandoned the traditional Highlife elements that made Ghanaian music rich and diverse.
Ambolley emphasised that they have adopted Western influences, stripping the genre of its authenticity.
“If you listen to the songs of Shatta Wale, Black Sherif, and others, their beats are all Western beats. There is no Highlife in there,” he stated.
According to Ambolley, Highlife music in his era was deeply rooted in experience and storytelling, often incorporating a blend of bass guitar, and trumpet to create a unique and timeless sound.
