Veteran Gospel musicians, Tagoe Sisters, say the love they have for each other as twins is the tie that has bound them together as a duo for decades.
According to the 'Yedi Nkunim' hitmakers, the sisterly love has helped them overcome challenges because what binds them is far greater than just being a music group.
"…we love each other, and it doesn't allow anything to come between us", one of them stated.
The Tagoe Sisters revealed this in an exclusive interview on Joy Prime after they were celebrated by Joy Entertainment in an initiative by the Multimedia Group Limited to promote Ghanaian musicians and their works.
On Friday, October 1, Joy FM, Hitz FM, Joy Prime, and all other Joy Entertainment platforms dedicated the day to celebrate the award-winning music duo.
The show also allows listeners and viewers to call on all radio (Joy FM/Hitz FM) and TV (Joy Prime) shows to request their favourite songs by the Sisters.
Speaking with Joy Prime's Emefa Akosua Adeti on Monday, the sensational Tagoe Singers admitted that there might be challenges, but the love they share keeps them above such challenges, which helps them to sort it out internally and continue with their music.
"Whenever there are issues, we sort it out as sisters because we can't fight each other; after everything, we all work together to have a good life", the group added.
Tagoe Sisters consists of twins Lydia Dedei Yawson Nee Tagoe and Elizabeth Korkoi Tagoe, who have been singing in the gospel music industry since 1983.
In March 2021, the group was honoured by the organisers of the 3Music Awards in an event called the 3Music Women's Brunch.
In the early days of their career, the duo worked in a group of three, with Hannah Tsia Mensah, called the 'I am Three Sisters', where they sang backup for musicians like Felix Bell and G Man and made appearances on Mr Picus Laryea's shows in the 1970s.
The group toured far and wide both in and out of Ghana and gained fame with their first album, 'Nyame ye Kese', written by the Advent Heralds in 1987.
They shared that they believed in togetherness growing up, which they learned from their role model, 'Quarshie Sisters', a group of three sisters.
This has helped them build a life full of love for each other as sisters rather than fighting.
They stated, "Aside from prayers and listening to advice from others; we see each other as a support system regardless of the shortfalls".
