Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Given his accomplishments in the music business, Ghanaian broadcaster, Kofi Okyere Darko, popularly known as KOD has declared that famous Dancehall artist Stonebwoy is the most industrious artist in Ghana.
He lamented the fact that despite all of his successes in the music business, he had not been able to achieve greater heights that would have validated his efforts and elevated him to the top of the world rankings.
According to KOD, it is difficult for those in the creative industry to make a living in the nation since their pay is often inadequate and their benefits are never received immediately.
Speaking in a 3FM interview that GhanaWeb was watching with Johnnie Hughes, KOD praised Stonebwoy for his dedication to the music business.
“Look at someone like Stonebwoy, I think for 2023 he is probably the most hardworking Ghanaian musician. But locally, what’s happening? Is it affecting him? Can we quantify what he’s done out there? In terms of money he’s made from copyright, I don’t think we can do so. If he’s not registered outside and he’s focusing on copyright from Ghana, nothing will happen,” he said.
He further lamented how the lack of funds in the creative space has affected the industry players and elaborated on what one needs to do to sail through.
“I think to belong to the creative space around here is like being a teacher. Your reward will probably be in heaven, it doesn’t happen in real-time.
“You have to be very intentional to break doors and break windows, to actually go up into spaces to get things done for you. If you actually decide to chill or wait for that golden opportunity, it might never happen,” he added.
