Reigning VGMA Songwriter of the year, Peter Fameyeh Bozah, aka Fameye has made certain controversial claims on his recent media tours that have sparked conversations amongst fans and listeners alike.
He has disclosed he did menial jobs including clearing rubbish from people’s homes as a means to make a livelihood.
Speaking on DayBreak on Hitz on Hitz FM, the artiste also mentioned that he used to fetch water for the Kwabenya Police Station detainees to flush the toilet when they defecated.
“I won’t go back to where I used to be but I will remember where I used to be. Anyone who lives at Kwabenya, Mosuku, or Ashongman Estate will know that I’m not lying about certain things I used to do before.
“Kwabenya East Police post, I used to fetch water for people there to flush toilets when they make an arrest. I was the one who planted the lawns and painted the place. I weed the whole community. Everyone knows that I am hardworking,” he said.
Fameye went ahead to disclose he sold ice cream and ‘sobolo’ to students while farming potatoes in front of his house.
“I have a potato farm in front of the house and I sold ‘sobolo’. I worked at noon and night. In the morning, I go to sell ice cream at a school called Faith Foundation. I have sold sim cards and done all the menial jobs before,” he added.
Furthermore, the award-winning Ghanaian artiste has given the reason why he composed sorrowful songs.
Speaking on Daybreak on Hitz on Hitz FM, the artiste noted that he was always getting rejected by women and sometimes at the club because of his appearance.
“Those times, people told me I composed a lot of sad songs. What were they expecting me to sing about? Those times when I called a lady, she wouldn’t come.
“When we go to the club, I will see my friends grinding on women, and when I spot a single lady who’s not with anyone and I try to sneak my way to dance with her, she turns me away just when she sees me.”
According to Fameye, in recent times, he has been blessed to travel abroad for a short vacation without sweating it.
“I was one of the guys who used to go to the club to sleep. So today, if the women are all over me, are you telling me to keep quiet.
