Legendary Ghanaian music maestro Kojo Antwi, fondly known as “Mr. Music Man,” has officially unveiled his highly awaited memoir, “Mr. Music Man: The Journey” (also referred to in some sources as “From Bands to Ballads to Brilliance: Mr. Music Man, The Journey”).
The launch took place on February 13, 2026—Valentine’s Eve—at the prestigious Labadi Beach Hotel in Accra, drawing a vibrant crowd of industry figures, fellow artists, dignitaries including the Chief of Staff and Minister for Tourism and Creative Arts, media personalities, and loyal fans. The event celebrated the icon’s extraordinary legacy and his profound influence on Ghanaian and African music.
In this intimate autobiography, Kojo Antwi shares his personal story—from humble beginnings to stardom in the 1980s and 1990s—while reflecting on the triumphs, sacrifices, and challenges that molded him into one of Africa’s premier composers of timeless love songs.
The book also traces the broader evolution of Ghanaian highlife, Afro-pop, and contemporary sounds, paying tribute to the people, moments, and cultural shifts that shaped his path.
Renowned for enduring classics and his iconic annual “24th December Concert,” Kojo Antwi uses the memoir to inspire emerging creatives and preserve a vital piece of Ghana’s musical heritage.
