Kiki Gyan (born June 7, 1957, in Takoradi, Ghana – died June 10, 2004, in Ghana), also known as Kiki Djan, was a Ghanaian musician recognized as Africa's answer to Stevie Wonder. He was a multi-instrumentalist who gained prominence in the 1970s as the keyboardist for the popular band Osibisa. Rising from the status of a high school dropout, Gyan toured the world with the international supergroup before the age of twenty-one. He later became a sought-after session player in London's top recording studios. Gyan produced a series of ambitious disco records in an effort to establish himself as an international star. Unfortunately, he faced challenges related to the excesses of the era and ultimately died impoverished, a victim of AIDS and drug-related complications.
