\n

Ever since D-Black started his music career, most of his hit songs have been collaborations with other musicians and now some music enthusiasts are seeing him as someone who cannot come out with a \u2018banger\u2019 on his own.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Others are even branding him as an opportunist who takes advantage of already established artistes to enhance his works to churn out hit songs.<\/p>\n

Some of his hit collaborations include\u00a0Somebody<\/em>\u00a0ft Kwabena\u00a0 Kwabena,\u00a0I like That<\/em>\u00a0ft Sarkodie,\u00a0Carry Go<\/em>\u00a0ft Davido,\u00a0Vera<\/em>\u00a0Ft Joey B,\u00a0\u00a0Conference Call<\/em>\u00a0ft. Kwaw Kese and\u00a0Personal Person<\/em>\u00a0ft\u00a0 Castro.<\/p>\n

However, D-Black who debunks this perception believes he can stand on his own without the support of his other colleague musicians.<\/p>\n

He told\u00a0Showbiz<\/em>\u00a0\u201cI collaborate with other musicians because they are different in their own ways. It is ridiculous for anyone to say I am an opportunist because my fan base is beyond Ghana\u201d.<\/p>\n

D-Black explained that because he is not fluent in Twi and Ga, he goes in for artistes who speak those languages well to help get his message across.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I could sing in Twi or Ga, I wouldn\u2019t have to feature others on my songs most of the time. That is not say I wouldn\u2019t have done collaboration even if I were fluent in Twi or Ga.\u00a0 I cannot sing Twi or Ga that is why I always feature other musicians\u201d<\/p>\n

D-Black who has topped several charts in Ghana with his current song Personal Person\u00a0 is about releasing a gospel song titled\u00a0Son of God<\/em>\u00a0 which features Bisa Kdei.<\/p>\n

Son of God<\/em>\u00a0was produced by DJ Breezy of\u00a0Personal Person<\/em>,\u00a0Selfie<\/em>,\u00a0Sei Ho\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Tonga<\/em>\u00a0fame.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0Son of God<\/em>, D-Black praised God for the success he has achieved with his music career. He also used the song to encourage people going through difficulties to have faith in God because He is the only one who never disappoints.<\/p>\n

Son of God<\/em>\u00a0is D-Black\u2019s second single gospel song. The first one was\u00a0Somebody<\/em>\u00a0which featured Kwabena\u00a0 Kwabena.<\/p>\n

\u201cSon of God is an inspirational song and I hope it improves the lives of those who listen to it. I hardly do gospel music but looking at what God has done for me throughout my music career, I believe it is right for me to do a song to glorify His name and to encourage others to do same\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
