Praye Honeho, alias Choirmaster, has revealed why he formed a group in Australia, while talking about the current state of the Hiplife trio Praye.

“It got to a point, there was a little misunderstanding so the group was halted,” the singer noted to Nana Romeo on Okay FM.

“But later on we came together, performed on music awards [shows], just to let the people know whatever differences were there had been sorted and amended.”

“For now, there’s no issue,” he assured.

He underlined the group and its members had been recognised by the public as “legends, meaning the songs and what we have done before are there, and are still going to be there [for years to come],” and indicated, “if anyone could afford [to sponsor] the group,” getting it active again “was no problem at all”.

He said the group members were in communication but not constantly.

“We don’t talk often by we have spoken before,” he said about his relationship with Tintin, for instance.

“He went to UK for some time so we lost his contact, so I think it’s been a while [since we last spoke].”

“Since I travelled, and given his schedule, we haven’t spoken much but we talk,” he noted about his relationship with Tietia, too.

He added although Tietia knew he was in Ghana, and they were yet to speak, they would meet up.

“We’ve grown up, we’re all handling our individual businesses. It’s not as it used to be when we all lived in one house,” Choirmaster observed.

“We had our own set of friends individually. Even though we were in a group, we had the business side, we all had our own friends.”

Australia

According to him, he could not attend Tietia’s wedding in 2015, because he “was not in town” and “along the way, also, I went to Australia to play a festival – Adelaide Fringe festival. That kept me away in Australia for a while”.

He admitted, apart from that, however, “the misunderstanding was deep at that time” and “the communication was very slow”.

On forming a new group in Australia, he explained it was impossible to play a festival without the backing of a group of live musicians.

“They don’t mime there. The kind of festival I went to play demanded a live performance in every aspect. I had to gather some Ghanaian instrumentalists local to the place who knew how the terrain was. That’s why I formed the group in Australia,” he expatiated.
