Highlife musician, Kuami Eugene expressed concerns about the music industry’s limited capacity to support more than one artist at a time.
He discussed these issues during an interview on Hitz FM’s ‘Daybreak Hitz’ program.
Kuami Eugene highlighted the reasons why the Nigerian music industry appears to be more successful than Ghana’s. He mentioned Nigeria’s access to better musical instruments and its capacity to produce higher-quality music.
The larger population of Nigeria also attracts more investors willing to support local talent.
The artist stressed the need for a collective effort among stakeholders in Ghana to advance the local music industry. He pointed out the tendency in Ghana to favor foreign music, while in Nigeria, there is a stronger emphasis on promoting local music.
