King of Burger Highlife, George Darko, has died. He reportedly died on Wednesday, March 20, 2024.

The cause of his death is currently unknown.

George Darko gained immense popularity in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, with his songs remaining among the most timeless and enduring highlife tracks in Ghana’s music scene.

The late musician, known for his skills as a guitarist, vocalist, composer, and songwriter, held the title of Tufuhene of Akropong, bearing the stool name Nana Apem Darko I.

His demise comes shortly after the loss of another legendary Highlife musician, Kwabena Kwakye Kabobo, also known as K.K Kabobo, who passed away a few days earlier.

K.K Kabobo had been battling liver disease before his death at the University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC).
