International Reggae/dancehall artiste Khago has denied allegations that he is a member of the controversial Freemason secret society. According to the artiste, critics are merely seeking to smear his reputation.
Khago told The WEEKEND STAR that a close affiliate informed him that persons were tracing the pattern of his career and claiming that his progression was not normal.
"Dem a sey dem check mi career pattern and nuh artiste neva guh Sumfest and buss and me dweet. Dem all a sey mi career drop after mi duh Blood A Boil and then the same song build back mi career suh dat look strange," he said.
Khago also emphasised that some of his critics maintain the view that after the fallout with his former manager Bankelous, he would have faded.
"People feel like after mi and such a powerful person in the music industry fall out mi shouldn't survive, but a God mi sey," he said.
Adding, "Mi nuh know nothing about masonry, mi have some mason wey work pon mi house and dem nuh work fi free mi haffi pay dem," he laughed.
The artiste claimed that all of his musical accomplishments can be validated by the fans who appreciate his vocal skills.
"Mi song a number one pon Hot 97 FM and that a natural thing, I don't know these people, a just the love and appreciation fi mi music," he said.
The artiste explained that he is cognisant of the fact that artistes must be able to withstand the pressures of stardom.
"Every year dem bring up something else, but I guess mi a duh good music suh haters ago talk bout mi, suh a just artiste life dat. The fans must know how to pick sense out of the nonsense," he said.
Khago disclosed that his new single Bad Mind Ago Kill Dem was recently added to the international Hot 97 FM chart and asserted that it was just his time to shine.
"All the good producers dem a work with mi now, and the song dem a duh well a just my time now or maybe a freemason dat to," he laughed.
The artiste is set to leave the island next week for shows in New York, and will make a debut appearance in Canada in coming weeks.
According to Khago, his life is more about creating a foundation for his family rather than to seek hype and attention.
"Me grow up inna people yard and mi neva join freemason. Suh why now when mi can eat a food mi ago join dat dem all a sey mi a one a di worst dressed but mi naah try be best dressed because mi a nuh chicken, is a foundation mi a set for my family," he concluded.
