Legendary highlife musician, Agya Koo Nimo, has proffered some nuggets of wisdom to highlife crooner Kwabena Kwabena on how to observe good health practices.
When Kwabena and his team paid a courtesy call on Agya Koo Nimo at residence in Kumasi over the weekend, the doyen of palmwine music advised Kwabena not to take hard liquor.
"Listen to whatever I say. Why am I 94? The first thing Kwabena, respect our kidneys. Drink a lot of water to clear everything in your kidneys. As for alcohol, you may just take a little," he said in a video sighted on nydjlive.com.
Using himself as example, Agya Koo Nimo said although he sometimes takes in alcohol, he has tried to stay away from drinks that could be harmful to his health.
"Me, I would just take a bottle of beer, the bitter one. But I do not take hard liquor. Hard liquor will spoil your voice. Your only gift is your voice. I beg you, Kwabena, take good care of yourself," he told Kwabena Kwabena.
Although, this was advice given to the 'Aso' hit maker, Koo Nimo's caution against alcohol is in tandem with the recent worry some have raised against the abuse of drugs among some musicians.
A few weeks ago, Kwabena said on UTV that he had stopped taking in any substance that has the potential to affect his health.
As someone who takes great inspiration from Agy Koo Nimo, he is one of the musicians that has kept true to the highlife sound, releasing hits over the years and organising concerts to that effect.
He has received a lot of plaudits from music industry stakeholders for his coruscating performance at the Vitamilk Love Night concert which was held on February 14, 2025 at the Grand Arena of the Accra International Conference Centre.
As 2025 marks his 20th year in the music industry, he has announced that he will be rolling out some activities to celebrate the milestone.
