Execution Entertainment Boss, Obrafour, in a recent interview, revealed how pissed he was with God for taking away his mother.

The lyricist currently promoting his Bisa featured Pimpinaa and Hammer produced Twe Mame reminisced;

“Growing up with five siblings it was quiet tough. I didn’t grow up in that kind of environment where you could lay your hands on everything that easily.

“My mom was selling, but it was quite okay; my dad died early, mom had to take care of us. I was about 13 when my dad passed on and my mom also passed when I had just entered the sixth form.

“I was quite pissed with God, I don’t know why I was that pissed, but I believe I hadn’t really understood the ways of God.

“So I stopped church for a while, but with time, when I got healed, I understood and believed in him again.

“At that point of my education I didn’t believe anything of that nature will happen to me. As a young man, I was looking forward to completing my education and be what I had aspired to be for so long, but that dream was truncated, it wasn’t easy.

I got to realize things happened for a reason and so now I do appreciate a lot of things now.

The rap sofuor gearing towards the release of his Obrafofro album, recounting life after his parents passing revealed;

“My elder sister was in America then and had promised to take me abroad, but the hope of flying abroad faded because it wasn’t materializing.

“I became a very disturbed young man. But every month, I got one cedi sixty pesewas from my sister. Things weren’t that hard because there was food at home always but I wanted to be my own man.

“At a point, I moved in with my friend and did whatever came to mind just to survive.

“Sometimes we would go and buy rice and I will look out for my friend and he would steal. It wasn’t that much because we only did that when things were hard and we needed something to eat.”
