Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
George Mensah Britton, a well-known music administrator, has criticized Ghanaian fans for their treatment of some brilliant performers, like Bisa Kdei.
Britton clarified the facts during an interview on TV3 New Day with AJ Sarpong and Berla Mundi about funding musicians as well as the entertainment industry.
Despite being considered one of Ghana’s foremost musical voices, Bisa Kdei has been tagged as a “funeral singer” due to its appeal, especially amongst funeralgoers.
“One of the artists people really look down on in this country is Bisa Kdei. They tag him as a funeral singer but he is in a lot of top conversations,” he pointed out.
Referring to his Herbal Tea and White Sofa piece, he said that there had just been a Grammy discussion in which Bisa Kdei was the only Ghanaian to be named.
“I mean a few days ago there was Grammy conversation and the only Ghanaian guy whose name was featured was Bisa Kdei,”.
