After four years of staying anonymous on YouTube and other social media platforms, the popular Ghanaian content creator known as the “Headless YouTuber” has finally revealed his true identity. Fans and followers, who had long speculated about his identity, initially linked him to well-known comedians like OB Amponsah, Lekzy DeComic, and Clemento Suarez due to his humorous and relatable style of content creation. However, the mystery is now solved: the man behind the mask is Frederick Amegbe Mattey, popularly known as Kula.
Kula, a former Ghanaian Hiphop/Afrobeat artiste and the 2019 Unsung Artiste of the Year at the Ghana Music Awards, made the big reveal in a heartfelt post on X (formerly Twitter).

“TBVH, this reveal has given me some level of relief that I can’t explain. For years, I’ve been paranoid. Always sneak-using my phone in public, had palpitations whenever someone I knew asked me whether I was Headless or not, couldn’t work when I had visitors over or when I travelled, etc. What a great relief!!!!” Kula wrote, capturing the emotional weight of years spent in secrecy.
Beyond his new role as the Headless YouTuber, Kula has a rich history in Ghanaian music. Known for his lyrical prowess and captivating storytelling, he released five mixtapes with over 70 songs during his career, collaborating with industry heavyweights like Medikal. While he has now transitioned to content creation, his musical legacy as a prince of Ghanaian rap remains undeniable.
Since its inception in 2021, the Headless YouTuber channel has gained a strong following, boasting over 140,000 subscribers. Now that his identity is public, Kula plans to expand his platform to include podcast interviews with prominent personalities and key players in Ghana’s entertainment industry.
This revelation marks a new chapter in the journey of a multi-talented entertainer who continues to evolve and inspire in different spheres of creativity. Fans can look forward to seeing a more open and interactive side of Kula as he dives deeper into the world of content creation.
