As a significant cultural push, the Krobo musician Korley Black, and the entire Dangme communities to launch the “Fire Burn Anokye” project. This courageous move, centered around a new track, is a direct response to a hurtful, age-old myth that has cast a shadow over their community: the myth that the legendary Asante priest, Okomfo Anokye, cursed Krobo women with promiscuity.

This project is a collective cry of frustration to rewrite their own history and restore the good name of Krobo women, whose have been unfairly labeled because of this unfounded tale. Through both music and community advocacy, the movement aims to correct this long-held misconception and put an end to a myth that has endured for too long.

The project directly questions whether this so-called curse has any basis in history. The people of Krobo and Dangme land present several clear reasons why this myth is not only false but malicious:

First, there is no real historical proof or even a mention in the Krobo people's own stories and histories passed down through generations to support the existence of such a curse.

Second, Okomfo Anokye, a well-known Asante historical figure, had no known connection to the Krobo people and there's no account of him ever being in Krobo territory, which makes the story unbelievable from a historical and geographical standpoint..

The people behind the movement believe the myth was likely fabricated and spread by some Akan groups as a tool of denigration and to put down the Krobo people, a weapon to stigmatize and undermine the social standing of the Krobo community.

This idea is backed by at least one Akan historian who publicly dismissed the curse on a national television as a fabrication. He reportedly explained that the stereotype likely arose as a way to explain why, over a century ago, severe economic hardship unfortunately forced some Krobo women into sex work for survival.

In the end, the “Fire Burn Anokye” project is more than just a song; it shows the strength of a people who are determined and fighting to redefine and tell their own story. It is a strong appeal from the Krobo and Dangme communities to their Akan neighbors, asking them to stop spreading this false and harmful story and instead build a future based on truth and respect for each other's cultures.
