Jelvis Badioo, popularly known as King Show, the Director of One King Group of Companies, has shared an emotional reaction to Kofi Kinaata’s newly released song, “Aban Kaba.”
The song, which touches on the consequences of youthful exuberance, left King Show in tears, as he related the powerful lyrics to his personal life and the stories of childhood friends who failed to heed life-changing advice.
“Aban Kaba” tells the story of a young man who ignored repeated warnings during his youth, only to end up in prison for drinking and driving. Kofi Kinaata’s storytelling once again showcases his lyrical prowess and ability to deliver deep social messages through relatable, real-life narratives.
In a Facebook post and a subsequent video review, King Show couldn’t hide his emotions as the song struck a sensitive chord. Visibly moved, he broke down in tears, recalling personal memories and life experiences that mirrored the song’s themes. According to King Show, the song reflects the painful truth about how reckless decisions in youth can haunt individuals for life.
“I see myself in this story. I see my friends. Some of them can’t even come close to me now—not because they don’t want to, but because of what life has dealt them after they failed to take the right path,” he said in the video. His heartfelt reaction has since resonated with many Ghanaians on social media, who have shared similar sentiments about the song’s emotional impact.
King Show further praised Kofi Kinaata for continuing to use his platform to educate and inspire the youth through music. He noted that songs like “Aban Kaba” are not just entertainment—they are life lessons set to melody.
