Late 2017 and early 2018 saw a viral song emerged with an infectious dance step which seemed to captivate most people who heard the song.
The song titled "One Corner" was released by a relatively unknown Ghanaian artiste called Patapaa amisty in 2017. The song which drew both praises and criticism was a hit in his country home as well as some African Countries such as Nigeria, South Africa e.t.c. back in 2017.
Patapaa, whose real name is Justice Amoah is an African hiplife musician, songwriter and comedian.
He is best known for his 2017 viral hit song "One Corner" which was also his debut single. In 2019, he came up with the phrase "Sco Pa Tu Mana" which quickly became a social media sensation and further boosted his popularity.
The "One Corner" song which was nominated for the Most Popular Song of the Year category and song of the Year category at the 2018 Vodafone Ghana Music Awards featured other rising singers such as Ras Cann and Mr loyalty. It was produced by Morgan Beat.
The song was enjoyed by both young and old individuals who took turns to show off their skills because of its danceable rhythm. Perhaps, what gave the song much attention was its dance, a dance which was hilarious in its concept.
Whenever the song starts playing, listeners make a mock dash to a hidden corner to dance to the record by rhythmically moving their hips in hilarious movements. Listeners are expected to find a corner and start gyrating your waist in a funny way.
When the song was released in September 2017, it received massive airplays in Ghana but didn't gain much grounds in Nigeria initially due to scepticism of Nigerians on the manner of the dance.
In 2017, when a video emerged showing Nigerian Striker Kelechi Ihenacho dancing rhythmically to the viral song ahead of the game against Zambia, some Nigerians were quick to criticise him for such actions.
However, the song which was dubbed 'the dumbest song to become a hit' by some individuals gradually found its way into the Nigerian audience and started receiving airplays in major clubs and shows in the country while still subjected to criticism by some.
Meanwhile, that was three years ago and the singer, Patapaa has moved on with his life. He is still into music and drops songs from time to time for his fans, he currently has about 560,000 followers on Instagram where he keeps tabs on his fans.
The "One Corner" hitmaker is currently dating a German lady known as Liha Miller. The relationship began after his infamous Europe tour in 2019, which reports claimed that he performer to just 16 people at one of his major shows.
