Camidoh's journey on life and music

Ghanaian singer Camidoh.

1. How did you come up with Camidoh as your stage name?

The name Camidoh stemmed from me eavesdropping on my mum and I think a colleague or a friend's conversation a long time ago. That is how I heard the word Camidoh, and fast forward, I was going to pick a Facebook name and this word kept ringing in my head. So I picked that and I started using it as my nickname and my stage name in school. Fast forward again, I told my mum, I wanted to keep the name. She does not even know how I came about the name, but she was like, "Cool, anything you want." So she helped me pray over it. That's how the name came about.

2. How would you describe the music that you create? Has it evolved in any way?

From the beginning, I was inspired by Akon, so in the early days of my music, I was making a lot of RnB. Over time, it evolved into Afropop and I believe it is still going to evolve with time. I am going to learn new things, I am going to be inspired and I am going to dive into more areas.
