De Thompson DDT, a musician and sound engineer born Elijah Nortey Thompson, claims that making music in Ghana will leave you penniless and without food if that is your only source of revenue.
He believes that everyone who says they have achieved success through music is lying.
“As for Ghana when you are here and you decide to do music, you might go hungry and it’s true so if someone tells you that they’ve been able to make it through music then it’s a lie” he said
The ‘Yeni Da Ho’ singer and music producer claims that given the significant investments required, generating money in the Ghanaian entertainment industry is rather challenging.
“Let me say that if someone says he’s made it through movies or music it’s impossible because it’s only football that there’s money in it through the entertainment industry, he added
“The only time you get money from music is when you are billed to perform at a show but if the song doesn’t hit that peak, how will you get your money back,”he told Amansan Krakye via Showbiz on Property.
