Ghanaian musician Darlington Kwasi Agyekum, popularly known as D-Cryme, has opened up about his unique artistic philosophy and his remarkable transition from stage performer to student leader. Speaking in an exclusive interview with Miss Melody on Atinka TV on December 1, 2025, the rapper reflected on both his music career and his academic journey.
D-Cryme described his rise in the music industry as deeply fulfilling, attributing his success to a distinct creative identity and a loyal fanbase.
“Ever since I started my music career, I don’t follow trends — I create trends,” he stated confidently.
“Being exceptional does not always mean being understood. I like being exceptional. I might not fit into the same category as other musicians, which is perhaps what the public expects.”
On Collaborations and Songwriting
The “Kill Me Shy” hitmaker clarified misconceptions about his collaborations, noting:
“I have never refused a feature request unless I’m genuinely unavailable.”
He emphasized that his songwriting is guided by purpose and timelessness:
“When I compose music, my focus is on longevity and relevance — creating music that can resonate with anyone at any point in life.”
Balancing Music and Leadership
Beyond the spotlight, D-Cryme expressed gratitude for his roles in academia. He described it as a divine blessing to serve as both brand ambassador for his school and to be elected SRC President by an overwhelming majority.
The multiple award-winning rapper graduated from Methodist University in November 2025, marking a proud milestone in his educational journey.
Reflecting on his dual path, D-Cryme credited his achievements to persistence, creativity, and collaboration — with six albums to his name and a series of impactful legacy projects initiated during his time in student leadership.
