Ghanaian rapper, Okyeame Kwame, has revealed the secrets to his evergreen career.

According to the veteran, a good managerial team and a lot of self imbibed humility are the major keys to an effectively sustained career in the music industry. The singer/songwriter, who has survived many generations on the music scene, spoke from experience seeing that he has been active for almost 20 years.

Okyeame Kwame explained this with a transportation-like illustration. He stated that an artist is a form of vehicle that "takes people to a fun-filled destination" and the passengers always expect more and more from the person in the driving seat.

The Rap Doctor said that no musician has creativity on his/her own, as everything a musician display is a result of what he has harnessed from the creativity of the public.
