Award-winning Highlife musician Bisa Kdei has described his reaction to learning that his song was featured in Netflix’s 2020 Christmas film Jingle Jangle as one of disbelief.
The track, titled Asew Jingle Jangle, is a remix of his 2018 hit Asew. While the original song tells the story of a young man speaking to his in-laws, the remix shifts the narrative to a grandchild addressing their grandfather.
In an interview with Channel One TV, Bisa Kdei revealed that he initially thought the email confirming the inclusion was a hoax. “At first, I thought it was a scam… I couldn’t believe it until we had a Zoom meeting, and then I realised it was genuinely happening,” he said.
Bisa Kdei is the first Ghanaian artiste to break into the limelight with a movie soundtrack.
Kdei has had successful collaborations with top musicians in Ghana, Africa and the World at large. Some of these Ghanaian musicians Bisa Kdei has worked with include Sarkodie, D-Black, Efya, Obrafour, Kwaw Kese, M.anifest, Stonebwoy, Medikal, Becca, E.L, R2Bees, Samini, Irene Logan, Kofi Nti, DeeVS, Keche, Lighter, Patoranking, Reekado Banks, Lola Rae, Tach-Noir, JRio and others.
