YES, the novel coronavirus has put a damper on almost everything but it seems the Ghanaian entertainment sector refuses to succumb.
It is picking up and has decided to make the best out of a bad situation with some players coming up with various activities to stay relevant and entertain their fans.
One of such is Lynx Entertainment signee, KiDi, who dropped his EP titled Blue earlier today, May 8 and followed it later in the day with a homemade video of Say Cheese, one of the singles off the EP.
According KiDi on Twitter, the video shot was by himself with his Sumsung phone and with the help of his beautiful friends —the ladies saying cheese and striking different poses.
Before releasing the video, he posted on Instagram: “Social distancing and quarantine has forced the world into operation DIY. At 3 pm today I’ll be premiering the Official HOME Video for Say cheese off the #BlueEP shot by MYSELF with my Samsung phone(with help from many of my beautiful friends) on YouTube. I can’t wait for you to see it. Don’t forget. 3 pm set your reminders”
Other songs on the EP are One Man featuring Adina, End In Tears, Freaky Lord and Next Time I See.
