Ghanaian Tiktok star, Asantewaa has finally broken silence following heavy backlash over her comments about Ghanaian musicians on national television as many found it ‘disrespectful’.

The Ghanaian TikToker claims that her remark has been misinterpreted in an exclusive interview with pulse.com.gh.
Asantewaa claims that she was merely having fun on the United Showbiz over the weekend with her friends.
While on UTV to Hajia Bintu, Wesley Kesse, Jacqueline Mensah, Felicia Osei, and Erkua Official about their careers as TikTok influencers, Asantawaa stated they are the go-to persons now with so many patronizing their services.
“That’s why I say that now it doesn’t matter how long you have played your music game. when you drop a song now it is not about your craft unless you bring it to us, if not you will have to sing your song alone,” she said and Wesley Kesse added, “we are the board of directors, you have to bring it to us“.
The comment in the video below has attracted backlash for TikToker and her colleagues.
Responding to her critics, Asantewaa whilst speaking on Pulse One on One today said: “I think people are misquoting me, I was there with Wesley Kesse, and Jacqueline Mensah, if you watch the video we were all having fun”.
“You guys know we were all having fun, people don’t even understand the fact that a lot goes into writing music, I am not a musician, I can not sing so if I am talking about promotion, I am not saying you are not as a musician,”she said.
In the video below, she also seized the moment to apologize to Ghanaian musicians.
