History of Castro's Career As A Musician



Castro at the time of his discovery, was a RAP artist, but in one of the two songs he featured, he did a little intro which was singing, before the rap, so I knew he could sing. I then migrated from virtual/universal studio studio to Hush Hush where I featured him on 4×4′s debut album that I produced/engineered as well as financed the production- cost.
On the “Siklitele” track that he featured, he did rap. During this same era, work on the JAY Q platinum compilation was going on. I then decided to do a remix of “Sradinam” by George Jahraa. After laying the instrumentation, I asked Castro to go into the vocal booth to do the vocals as I directed him, which he did, as a Guide track for George Jahraa to come and sing later.

After it was done, I invited George Jahraa to Accra from Suhum (where he stayed at the time), to come listen and re do the “Sradinam” remix vocals. Upon getting to Hush Hush studio, I played the song for him to listen after which he advised me to keep Castro’s voice and that though he did the original song, he thinks Castro got talent, so I kept it.

Though “Sradinam” was initially meant for my compilation, I released it to Frimprince to be added to King David’s “Aaye fe notse album” but was stated that sradinam was performed by Castro and not King Dave. Frimprince later went to Europe to replicate the “Aaye fe notse” CD, after which promotion there in Europe out-doored “Sradinam” and it was accepted there. Frimprince then called me from Europe and asked me to put an album together for Castro and that the “Sradinam” is a big hit in Europe, which I did… So at this time, I had to nature Castro into putting more effort in his singing ability.
