KiDi, the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA) 'Artiste of the Year' 2022, has been in the news lately for all the wrong reasons.
The GoldenBoy singer has faced a lot of speculation and concern about his health after he postponed his North American tour and released a song that subtly suggested concern for his liver, thus making fans and critics alike speculate that he could be dealing with ill health related to his liver.
But fear not, KiDi fans. The Lynx Entertainment star has come out to clear the air and assure everyone that he is absolutely fine and healthy.
It all started when KiDi announced on social media that he was postponing his GoldenBoy North American tour, which was scheduled to kick off on March 1 and end on March 19, 2023.
It is with a very heavy heart that I announce the postponement of my Golden Boy North American Tour…' 'I've had to make this decision to postpone the tour due to health issues and I want you to know that this decision was not made lightly. A tour of this magnitude and level of commitment it will take may put me at risk of further damage to my health.' 'I want to ensure that whenever we meet on tour, it will be an experience worth everything you've given me as an artist and I can only do that if I am in much better health than I am now. Apologies to all of my fans and Duke Concept…'" he wrote on Instagram.
He cited "ill health" as the reason for the postponement, but for some unknown reason, rumours spread like wildfire, suggesting that the ill health KiDi referred to was him suffering a stroke.
KiDi and his team quickly debunked these rumours and said that he was in good shape and that the tour would resume soon.
However, just as the dust was settling, KiDi dropped his first single for 2023, titled 'I Lied'. The song, which is a catchy afrobeat tune, has some lyrics that raised eyebrows among listeners.

In the chorus, KiDi sings: "I lied when I said I'm okay / I lied when I said I'm not in pain / I lied when I said I don't need you / I lied when I said my liver's fine…If I show you my liver / You go take me to prayer / Don't wait till I'm under / 6 feet I'm gone…”
Many people interpreted these words as a confession from KiDi that he was suffering from liver disease and that he was hiding his true feelings from his lover.
The song sparked a lot of sympathy and prayers for KiDi online, especially after his stellar performance at the 2023 VGMAs.
But in a recent interview with Sika Osei on her show 'Unstripped', KiDi set the record straight once and for all.
He said that he did not have any liver disease or any other health issue and that he was feeling great.
He also explained that the song 'I Lied' was not about him, but about anyone who was going through a tough time and pretending to be okay.
He said that he wrote the song to inspire people to be honest with themselves and their loved ones, and to seek help when they need it.
So there you have it, folks. KiDi is alive and well, and ready to rock your world with his music. Don't believe everything you hear, unless it comes from the GoldenBoy himself.
