CEO of the popular Radio & Television Personality (RTP) Awards, Prince Mackay, appears intrigued by how highlife musician's single "Monica" has made such a hit after the musician's 'sleep mode' following the demise of his grandmother and father.

Speaking on Accra 100.5 FM’s Entertainment Capital on Saturday, November 25, the event entrepreneur said he had heard the story behind the song and found it "inspirational," urging Kuami Eugene to look for the 'mystery Monica' and thank her for inspiring a hit from him.

He said, “You have to look for Monica, Kuami Eugene," said Prince Mackay, CEO of the popular Radio & Television Personality (RTP) Awards.

“Monica has been of immense help to Kuami Eugene so Kuami Eugene must go and help Monica,” he added, amidst what appeared to be stifled laughter.

The CEO went on praising 'Monica' for bringing Eugene out of 'darkness' and making him lively again.

“Monica, you’ve done well. You’ve given Kuami Eugene a massive hit. You’ve brought Kuami Eugene back home [to familiar territory]. I’m a realist and that’s why people don’t understand me. I’m straightforward.

“Look, bro, for some time now, we know he’s been struggling. From the time of his issues with Lynx, when he released Single and then came other ones, you could clearly see Kuami Eugene was lost. I was telling myself that the Kuami Eugene we know is lost. It looked like he was getting off his normal [path].

“It looked like he was going through some tough times,” he noted.

During his hosting stint, Prince Benjamin (PB) recalled Eugene sharing the recent consecutive losses of his grandmother and father. This revelation, he explained, is the inspiration behind Eugene's latest album, titled "Chaos and Love." The term 'love' in the album title signifies the unwavering support Eugene's fans have consistently provided him during challenging times.

“I didn’t have this information you’re giving me but I could tell that at that time he was going through something because he was not the Kuami Eugene we know... Something had changed about the way he composes music. You could tell he had gone off track a bit,” Prince Mackay reacted.

He asserted, thereafter, that “Monica, the female, has provoked Kuami Eugene to come back on track. That’s why I said he should go look for her.

Just as he says in the song, “he should buy one of these little cars, Vitz, for her to do Uber business with, so she can stop what she currently does,” Mackay added. “Monica, tell Kuami Eugene you’ve helped him get a hit. You’ve restored him to his former [glorious] position.”

Moreover, Prince Mackay strongly asserted that despite the recent release of Eugene's "Monica," it has the potential to surpass King Promise's globally renowned "Terminator" and clinch the accolade for the most popular song of the year at prominent music award ceremonies in 2024.

Additionally, considering the success of "Monica," Prince Mackay expressed his intention to recommend Eugene to the RTP management for a performance at the media awards show scheduled for Friday, November 29, 2023, at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC).

In a television interview with Berla Mundi on Accra-based TV3, Kuami Eugene disclosed that his latest hit, "Monica," is essentially about a devoted fan who persistently shares content on Snapchat. He playfully hinted that the content included nude photos, evoking laughter from both the in-studio audience and Berla herself.

“So Monica is about her.

“I’ve never seen her before but she’s on my snap.”

Stressing that he was telling “a real story,” he indicated the unnamed Snapchat user had been sending him nudes “for a year and a half now."

Asked why he had not blocked communication with the unnamed female, Eugene lightheartedly answered, “I’m like a cat. I’m curious.”

Viewing her persistence as loyalty, Eugene said he had a private Snapchat conversation with her, during which she broached a one-on-one physical meeting.

According to him, he declined, telling her, “I have a lot of shows,” and they could rather “meet at some of my shows."

She has yet to attend any, he observed, allowing, however, that she may have come to a show or two without approaching him.

On the back of this, he explained why, in the song, he tells Monica he “wants her closer than the nudes so she should stop sending whatever she’s sending—I prefer seeing her."

Eugene declined to affirm or denounce his amorous feelings for the mystery Snapchat user.
