Hiplife Grandpa, Reggie Rockstone has revealed that he does not get perturbed when people say he lives in his father’s house.
Speaking in an interview with Nkonkonsa on YouTube, Reggie recounted the immense contributions of his late father Ricky “Ricci” Ossei (Saint Ossei), a renowned fashion designer had on his music career.
According to him, his late father was the one who built him a studio to record his music.
He added that the father was also his chief marketer and supported his career. Reggie Rockstone noted that he owes all his music achievements to the late father.
He narrated that when he returned to Ghana from the United States to pursue his music career, his father was the one who suggested he should do Hiplife and in line with his dream, he learned the Twi language so as to make the mark his father set for him.
“English is my first language. I learned to speak Twi…I’m a British Ashanti New Yorker…He told me not to call it Hip Hop. He said stop the foreign life; let’s do a hybrid; Hip Hop, Highlife and we got Hiplife. It was my father and myself. He was very good to me.”
Reggie further noted that;
“Shatta Wale said I live in my father’s house. It’s true. I am staying in my father’s house. I am Dada B Original…I inherited my father and just like our President lives in his father’s house. Where does Shatta Wale think his children will stay when he dies?”
