Emmanuel Oduro, popularly known in hiplife music circles as Mr. Oduro, is now a certified pharmacist in the United States of America.
In a chat with Joy FM’s Kwame Dadzie, published on myjoyonline.com, Mr. Oduro [now Dr. Oduro], revealed that he took a break from music to pursue higher education.
“I decided to go to school. I have a Doctor of Pharmacy degree. I have been practising in the United States since 2017,” he said.
Dr. Oduro earned the Doctor of Pharmacy degree from D’Youville University School of Pharmacy in Buffalo, New York.
He shared that his passion for medicine was sparked at a young age.
“At the age of 12, my uncle who is a medical doctor bought books for me on medications to read,” he recounted.
Though he has not returned fully to music, Dr. Oduro has found a creative way to blend his artistic and scientific worlds. He now uses elements of music and poetry to promote health awareness and discipline.
“I did not want to get rid of my God-given talent. So I decided to merge my music and rap talent with my earthly acquired Doctor of Pharmacy degree to help the public,” he said.
Dr Oduro rose to fame in the early 2000s during the height of Ghana’s hiplife movement, with songs such as Abiba, Mali, Awura Adwoa, making him a household name.
