I won’t mention figures but I will say that in the history of Ghana music, I don’t think any song in Ghana music has made money than ‘Touch It’ has like actual streaming money, it’s been crazy,”. Kidi said
He added that “I stand to be corrected but as far as I know” no song in Ghana has made money than Touch It.
