That's the hard truth. Not just musicians, Ghanaians generally look down upon any form of creativity and creative works.

Oh it’s true oo…. An example of sowing with getting any fruit. The country alone is a strong hold 😂. Skinpain no d))so nti obi mpe se obi beko so.

Ghanaians have a socialist approach to talent

Ghanaians when they remove money from their pocket 😂

Strictly truth, we are all living witnesses🙂🙂

Chale he said it all even today that we have Stone and Wale thems we still dey back. Asake,Rema and co came not long ago they have made it

Can you imagine comparing our innocent Wale, stone and Sark to these people😔

It’s from our past. When people started playing palm wine music they were called drunkards. Because the music was always around booze. We praise book knowledge more than talent. That’s one of Ghana’s biggest problems

This is because Nigeria has the market, a large population making it easier. Like Canadian artist can’t really get rich in Canada they all have to go the states because of that market. Drake, weeknd would be nothing with just a Canadian market.

No wonder, they don't take their craft seriously, or take it to the next level

Realllll

This is very true. This is one thing about Nigeria Ghana has to learn fully. We don't appreciate talent and creativity as much as they do. So there's little investment in it.The world has changed, I hope & we see how creativity has propelled Ghana & Naija(Music/sports etc)

Killa, if you take people demma content you for credit!
True There’s no rich Ghanaian musician because we don’t have the population and not only in Ghana even Ok Jazz of DRC was a great musician but wasn’t rich I don’t know about the wealth of Alpha Blonde of the Ivory Coast

Could it be that we mostly limit a lot of our songs to twi and not English so it doesn’t reach a larger crowd, especially internationally.

Absolutely truth

Fact 🤦

First time hearing my grandfather’s name…Ghanaians eeerrr. E.K. rest easy 😪

@0rangefist @EvolvingVintage

Amakye Dede

Facts

It's all about the numbers

Topic @aimonus

@grok who is the gentleman in the video

Facts bro

Coincidence ≠ causation

This is true But the thing is, how do we fix this? Who do we go to, where do we start from, and what do we do?

Then our customs dier..

Hmmmsad

Who is this old fool. Ghanaian musicians have poetry. It might not be much , but it's what create authentic lifestyle . Nigerian musicians only duplicate and take from others . Try their lyrical contents . Its bogus . Burna boy said it himself , Nigerians lacks poetry aboa trumu

Can we get the full interview, please?

Its de Nigerian millionaire musicians u want to mention made their money from foreign gigs mostly

The fact that he is an obroni and advanced in age doesn't automatically validate his opinion. Unless we’re suggesting that legends like Shatta Wale, Kojo Antwi, Daddy Lumba, Amakye Dede, or even current heavyweights like Stonebwoy don’t generate real revenue. Nigerian artists only appear to earn more largely due to the size of their population and market reach , not because there’s anything inherently superior or special about their music ..nkwasisasem aa kwa

True
