Ghanaian rapper Strongman born Osei Kwaku Vincent has opened up about the depth of his commitment to his long-term partner, Nana Ama, revealing that his dedication to their relationship strongly shapes his personal decisions and public life. Speaking in a recent interview, the rapper explained that although they have not yet formalised their union through marriage, they have lived together for nearly a decade, which, in his view, already holds the weight of a marital bond in practical terms.
Strongman stressed that one of the key reasons he remains disciplined in his actions is his desire to avoid unnecessary complications that often come with having children outside a committed relationship. As he put it, “I don’t want to have kids outside my relationship. It usually brings a lot of issues at the end of the day. I don’t want any stress in my life, worry from baby mothers and everything. I just want to enjoy life.” This, he noted, is a personal principle that keeps him grounded and focused.
He also addressed public speculations that Nana Ama often restrains him from engaging in rap beefs. Strongman clarified that it is not the lyrical battles themselves that bother her, but the emotional dynamics behind specific feuds. He explained that tensions only escalated during his confrontation with Amerado because of the closeness between the two artists. According to him, “In Amerado’s case, we were very close, like an elder brother and a younger brother. So Nana Ama wasn’t pleased because I hadn’t done anything to deserve such demeaning lyrics and because of our relation, she didn’t want me to reply.” He added that her reluctance for him to respond came from a place of loyalty and concern, not control: “She didn’t want me to respond because of the bond we had.”
Touching on past controversies, Strongman explained that his feud with Medikal has long been resolved. He emphasised that despite the heated exchanges, there is no lingering tension. “With Medikal and Amerado and the lyrics against my woman, we are cool now. It’s a thing of the past,” he said. Describing how cordial things have become, he added humorously, “Even Medikal’s former wife, Fella, I’ve seen her like three times and even eaten rice from her plate. So that one too is over.”
Reflecting on how quickly conflicts disappear within the Ghanaian entertainment landscape, Strongman joked about the fleeting nature of disagreements: “In Ghana, when you get a disagreement with someone, just insult the person as soon as possible because it will soon pass.” His remark highlighted how easily tempers rise and settle in showbiz circles.
On the subject of marriage, Strongman acknowledged that while he intends to formally marry Nana Ama, his busy schedule and financial responsibilities have delayed the process. Nevertheless, he made it clear that his commitment to her is unwavering. Even in the unlikely event that their relationship ends, he believes she deserves to benefit from all the years they have invested together. As he explained, “Even if I don’t marry Nana Ama, I will still give her a share of my properties. And if she decides to leave, I will give her what is due her as a married woman. She is not an ‘eye-red’ woman.”
