I mistook Blakk Rasta for someone else – Efya backtracks on initial claim of not knowing Reggae singer and presenter

Efya Nokturnal, a Ghanaian Neo singer, has backtracked on remarks she made in the past about not knowing Blakk Rasta, a fellow performer and broadcaster.

The event had led to friction between the two, but Efya has seized the chance to put things right and mend fences with the radio host.

Efya, who was responding to inquiries on Asempa FM in Accra, expressed regret for her remarks criticizing the reggae artist by saying that he wrote amusing tunes.

"I will never go through life not knowing him. He will always be a part of my daily life. She said, "I appreciate him for his work and all he does.

The vocalist of "Devil in Me" said it was an instance of identity confusion and she regretted her  behaviour.




“You know what I mistook him for someone else that’s why and it’s okay and I don’t want to talk about that or make it deeper,” she added


During an interview with GHone TV on February 2, 2023, Efya was asked if she knew Blakk Rasta.


In her initial response, she stated that she didn’t know him, including his personality and his works.


However, when the host sang Blakk Rasta’s popular song, ‘Barack Obama,’ Efya recognized the name and realized it sounded familiar to her.


Blakk Rasta, who was initially displeased with Efya’s comment about his songs being funny, reacted to her change of mind in a more positive manner.
