Speaking in an exclusive interview with Ghana Weekend on Tuesday, September 9, she reacted to suggestions that her closeness to artistes like Kwesi Arthur and King Promise coincided with a decline in their progress.

Critics have also warned that her association with Mr. Drew could spell similar doom for him.

But Efia Odo strongly rejected the notion, stressing that she has always supported artistes rather than harmed them.

“Was I not the same person promoting Kwesi Arthur’s songs all the time? I’ve also worked with Likee. Has Likee stopped what he’s doing? I’m close to Shatta Wale. Has he stopped doing music? I’ve supported so many people in the industry, from Darkovibes to Gyakie to Black Sherif,” she said.

Efia Odo described such speculations as “negative projections” from people with the wrong mindset about her. According to her, whatever struggles artistes face have more to do with themselves than with her influence.
