Ghanaian rapper Enoch Nana Yaw Oduro-Agyei, popularly known as Trigmatic, has shared the difficulties he faced after shifting his musical focus to Pan-African themes. In an interview on Joy FM, Trigmatic revealed that his decision to embrace this genre was fraught with challenges, including the loss of significant contracts and reluctance from some producers to work with him.

The “Where We Dey Go” singer explained that promoters complained about his live band performances, which led to him missing out on show bookings. Determined to keep his craft alive, he established a live rehearsal studio, eventually launching his own concert series, Osagyefo’s Night, celebrating Ghana’s Pan-African legacy.

Trigmatic described his transition to conscious music as a lonely and painful experience, marked by the departure of some team members who didn’t understand his vision. However, despite the hardships, he expressed pride in his journey, striving for excellence in his craft.

Looking ahead, Trigmatic hopes to reflect on his music career with pride when he turns 60, drawing inspiration from the legendary Daddy Lumba, who continues to thrive after more than 30 years in the industry.

Trigmatic has produced several popular songs, including “Show Me Your Love,” “My Life,” and “Something Dey,” and continues to honour Ghana’s arts through initiatives like his Osagyefo’s Night, celebrating the legacy of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah.
