Kiki Banson, ex-manager for the defunct music group, Praye, has been held responsible for the team’s collapse.

In an interview on Okay FM on June 19, Chiormaster, also known as Praye Ho Ne Ho also indicated that, Kiki Banson didn't give the group the necessary support it needed.

“Kiki was the reason behind the downfall of the group, Praye. He did not contribute any tangible work to support the group. Praye was already loud before he joined; we had Angelina banging on the street and other projects,” Choirmaster stated.

He explained that the group was already in the limelight before Kiki Banson joined the group.

According to him, the group had foreseen their then-manager as someone who was coming in to add to their success.

But their expectations had a twist due to Kiki's decisions, which eventually led to their split.

“Before he joined us, we were already making progress, but after bringing him on board, we began to decline. He was expected to put in effort, especially since many people, including us, believed in him. However, he failed to elevate the group as we had hoped.

“When we met Kiki, we had high hopes, believing he would work hard to advance the group. However, we were disappointed, as he turned out to be the opposite of what we expected,” he said.

The Praye music group was made up of Eugene Baah (Praye Ho Ne Ho), Steven Fiawoo(Praye Tiatia), and Nana Kwame (Praye Tenten).

The trio gained attention in 2004 after winning the maiden Nescafe’s African Revelation competition.

They released their debut album, Mfitiasee, in 2005, which featured The single, My Shoddy, which went viral across Ghana.

Praye won them a Kora Music Award for Best Group in West Africa as well as two Ghana Music Awards in 2006 namely: New Artiste of the Year and Hiplife Song of the year.

However, Praye Tenten left the group in 2011 while their career was at a peak.
