 Buk Bak, known for several hit songs including 'Klu Brofo', 'Akwasi Broni' and 'Kolom', was versatile and rapped in Ga, Twi, and Pidgin, and was the first hip-life group in Ghana to make a successful career out of Ga music.
Speaking to metromixdrive, Murphy Rauf said the contribution of Ronnie to the music industry cannot be over emphasized.
“The death f Ronnie on the industry is a big blow, it will affect it a lot because a lot of artists would still have wanted to do tracks with him in particular. He had one of the best raggae style” Murphy Rauf suggested.
He fears Buk Bak as a group might collapse after the demise of Ronnie.
“His death will really affect the group because when they broke up and went solo, Bright came up with a track, it wasn’t a hit, Ronnie wasn’t popping up. So now that he [Ronnie] is gone forever, definitely it will affect the group.. I think Buk Bak will fall”.
