The authentic and energetic youth band, within a short period captured the ears and eyes of Ghanaians and the neighbouring West African countries.
The potential the band had and the early discovery by an international agent brought the band to Europe,where they performed with overwhelming success in several festivals in Denmark and Sweden alongside Reggae & African well known Stars. The band was confronted with popularity and immigration problems within a short period of time. This brought about the disintergration of this wonderful band.
Kojo after a short while went solo. His first solo album >All I need is you < became a chart buster in Ghana. It was been played anywhere music sounds in the country. This album gave him the encouragement to continue and to become what he is today. THE Nr. 1 MUSIC STAR OF GHANA SINCE 1989.
Today, Kojo´s popularity in Ghana cannot be described with words alone. Series of awards, Nr. 1 hits in any Music charts around the country with any album he releases, nonstop airplays, TV shows in Ghana, Ivory Coast, Togo, Senegal and U.T.N.A.,(United Television Network of Africa), tells how fast his career is gaining grounds to cover Africa as a whole. He was currently nominated for the African Musician of the year 1996 held in Juli in Johannesburg, South Africa, only to be beaten by Papa Wemba.
Kojo has already made tours in Ghana, Togo, Nigeria, Senegal, he is currently on Tour in Ivory Coast till end of March, and Burkina Faso, playing only at State Halls and Stadiums for thousands of people. In Ghana any performance with the star gets sold-out.
He was invited direct from Ghana in ´93 as the aspiring star of Africa for the famous African Festival in Delft, Holland. He also passed through Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Germany and the U.K. performing upon the invitation of the African Societies thus making this tours more African than European.
It is time to get out from the national into the intercontinental market, the world should hear more about real live, love, happines, agony and poverty down in Africa.<< Kojo said.
Kojo plays Reggae with lots of African influences in the Lovers Rock style and Roots Reggae alongside authentic African songs. He sings in both English and vernacular. He has lady dancers, lady background singers and top Musicians who have worked with international Stars like Hugh Masekela and Miriam Makeba. He has a Master Saxophone player from Sierra Leone.

The lyrics to Kojo Antwi's song Me Die Ne Woa speak to the pain and frustration of a man who has been hurt in love. The first few lines of the song set the tone for the rest of the lyrics. Antwi sings, "Mekoda anwummere a woho adwendwen nti amma me nna." This translates to, "When you wake up in the morning and you're feeling overwhelmed, call me." The sentiment behind these lyrics is one of deep caring for a partner, despite the fact that they have been hurt in the past. Antwi goes on to sing about the pain he has experienced in love, saying that he has shed tears over his past experiences.
Throughout the song, Antwi uses imagery and metaphor to describe his love and pain. For example, in the lines "AMA me niso atiti (AMA awosee agu me)" Antwi compares his pain to the sting of a bee. Later, he sings about feeling like a bird without a nest, unable to find a place to call home. Despite this, Antwi holds out hope for the future, singing about the possibility of finding a new love who can fill the void in his heart.
Overall, Me Die Ne Woa is a powerful exploration of the highs and lows of love. It speaks to the universal human experience of heartbreak and the search for healing and hope.
