The title
of the song – “Zuuchia” – coined from a Hausa word meaning “My Heart” is
purposely ‘cooked’ by the female singjay in order to ‘familiarize’ more with
her audience who are from the Islamic community. It is a carefully synced joint
on a very danceable rhythm which would be classified as Dancehall.
It is no
doubt that Kaakie’s music indeed has covered every place in Ghana and even
beyond the borders of Ghana. Kaakie’s songs are fast-spreading and having
routine airplay in notable countries like England, USA, Australia, Italy,
Spain, France, Norway, Germany, Nigeria, South Africa, Kenya, Gambia, Uganda, Tanzania,
Senegal among others.
“I have
come a very long way within just a year; and I have realized that my fan base
keeps growing by the day. Although I knew I would come out large, the fast pace
at which everything is going now really prompts me to give in more than before.
It meant a lot of hardwork and doing songs that would fall in the interest of
the larger community (even though I know it is sometimes difficult). Lately, I
found out that my fan base within the Muslim community has grown so big. After
monitoring my facebook and twitter fanpages for some time now; and even at
shows where I perform, I have realized how enthusiastic folks from the Muslim
side have come to love and appreciate my style of music. Hence, I decided to do
a joint basically for them in Hausa language, especially in this season of
Ramadan. Many would question why a ‘Christian girl’ would do a dancehall track
for the ‘Muslim folk’ but in my line of thought, doing something this way would
really bind us all as one people and strengthen the coexistence among us. It’s
a danceable song, just like my previous hits which are still banging
everywhere. This does not mean that every part of the song was strictly sang in
Hausa. I have some parts of the song sang in English, Twi, Ga and a splash of
Patois in it like I do it always – so it can still cross the borders of Ghana –
Europeans, Americans and even fellow colleagues from the Caribbean can play
“Zuuchia” and still understand the words in it and groove along with on the
dance floor. I am very hopeful everyone would like. I know for sure it’s gonna
be everyone’s phone ringtone hahaha.” – Kaakie corroborated
