Nigerians are top when it comes to music. They are so smart and creative with their styles. When they noticed that amapiano was slowly taking over they're sound engineers incorporated it in their beats. There's amapiano beats in most of these top songs like sability, gwagwalada, extra cool... etc, they do their homework very well and are smart because they know that in the music industry there should always be fresh and new sounds. They are soo technical and take music as a serious business they really study the craft and trends, they don't just wake up and release anything.
Thank you my Ghana brother for saying the trut,for saying the trut bout reason Nigeria are King of afrobeat in africa. Music and film Nigeria rule,nr1 dont forget Population naija is higher, system if music,Sound beat,and yoruba language mised with pingin and englisch is fire and we put lot o money into music and Film,is Business for us.

Bossman, you are right. However, you have to understand that your music industry is much more superior to ours. Y’all have the music business acumen and y’all support your artistes. Y’all are doing the right stuff to propel your industry. We could learn a lot from y’all.

I really don't know how the Ghanian music fell, the likes of Tiktak, Praye and Tiny used to be with their Nigerian counterparts like Tony Tetuila and the likes... But Nigerian music just skyrocketed and Ghana music is still taking baby steps.
I think we are not diverse. The language speaks a lot. English is such a common language and everyone can vibe. Their soundz, rhythm, and beatz are crazy. Their songs speaks to the soul.
This is part of it Buh I can tell you that it’s not a matter of the English language. Even some Nigerian artists use their local languages in their musics as well Buh it’s exactly what dingo is saying. We artists need investors to push us to the apex.
@@hunchomost if I am an investor and don’t see the bigger picture there’s no point.

I could go on and on. We get great artistes. We just don’t have an industry and we lack music business acumen. I’ve said this before, and I will say it again, Afrobeats as we know it is for the Nigerians. Not Ghanaians. We need to be authentic and stop trying to copy them.
Nigerians, as you stated, did not go hating others but they learn, collaborate, sacrifice by being used yet learning, and are willing to take risks and accept losses. See where that has led them now in the world stage. It is only in the black race you see success of one not being celebrated by all. Rather, they want to pull you down znd be jealous because they feel that we all must be the same and down trodden. If Ghanaian artists can ride on the success of the Nigerians to be at the the top, why not do it and achieve your success. Even if they call them Nigerian in the process, should that be a concern as long as you're achieving success. When Celine Dion, Shania Twain, Drake, Brian Adams, Nickelback, Justin Bieber etc were riding high in the music and still are, how many people around the world knew they were Canadians? As far as most of the world knows, they were Americans. But, did you see them, these artists, shouting "we're Canadians?' No, because that is immaterial. The success of their music and the financial result that comes afterwards is what matters. And they still keep good relationships with their American brothers. In fact, many of them are based in the USA and enjoying their lives. It is ONLY in Africa, and among bkack people, that you see Jealousy, nationalism, and all these bullshit. Why ard Ghanaian musicians not relocating to Nigerian so as to hone in their craft and find success? They will not because of nationalism, pride, jealousy and arrogance. Then, if that is the case, you better die in your anger and jealousy because the Nigerians will continue to reach higher grounds. Aren't you even looking at the benefit of the Nigerian population for your success. Why do you think the Canadians, British etc go to USA to gain acceptance for their art? Because of population, growth, and wealth. Imagine if over one million Nigerians out of the over 230 million citizens buy your record before other countries, can you imagine how profitable you will be? So, stop all your bullshit hate and jealousy and learn and grow with the best.
People always ask why my covers are mostly Nigerian songs. They have the numbers , they invest in their craft. When you hear the song you don’t have to listen to it over and over again before it carries you. They have structures. Yes Ghanaian Artist are working hard one of them is Stonebwoy. He’s always out there pushing and others relax after releasing a song and getting some trends on TikTok. But we move!
@@bengroovesgh OK. What exactly am I supposed to read well? I was asking a genuine question on where you post your covers. I assume you post them on social media. To think I wanted to actually check your covers out. Na wa.
Sincerely its just as simple as volume, the rate of releases in Nigeria by musician is maximum of 3months. Nigerians don't allow a song to rest before another banger comes out. In Ghana, except few that drop songs back to back. Good song, I mean

Sheldon but Blacko was able to top our chart when he released his album. Many of the songs were on top of our charts in Nigeria. So Blacko did it never forget. Just that our stars drop songs almost every 2 weeks. Nigerian artists don’t rest cus there’s serious competition among us here alone. Sugarcane was all over Nigeria. It stayed top 10 here for so long especially the remix. So you are right on the marketing aspect.
I see some Ghanaians comments downplaying the efforts of Nigerians, emphasizing on our population. Ok no problem! Since it's about numbers now, I think the list of best music in Africa should look like this. Nigeria Ethiopia Egypt DR Congo South Africa Tanzania Kenya Uganda Algeria Sudan. Thanks 👍
Nigerians and Ghanaians sound differently. Our accents differ. Even if a Ghanaian sings Soso or Calm down or Sability it won't sound the same. Even the Nigerian Pidgin sounds unique and widely accepted. We are linguistically different. Listen k Odeyewu, let a Ghanaian sing it you would see it sounds different and may not be as appealing as a Nigerian singing it. Its not just about structures and investment. Intonation matters. Let's all face areas we have comparative advantage and stop the unhealthy competition.
VERY UNHEALTHY COMPETITION INDEED! Must everyone be in music? I believe God blessed us all in different areas. Find your area of specialty and work on that.
Oh please Nigerians are just better promoting their music. TikTok has definitely helped u guys with the western audience. Nigerians also population plays a big role.
It is important for Ghanaians to know that music is not a cultural exchange! The current Nigerian music wave is not "targeted" at just the Ghanaian market! The Afrobeats wave is global!!! It is across Africa, the Caribbean, Europe and even encroaching in America! Ghana man dem for chill! 👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
Nigeria dierrrr no size I love them because of their songs and entertainment industry in general, even the Yoruba songs Dey bee me pass though I don’t even understand
Years ago naija artist dropped Dia ego, we romance artist from Other countries, we learned and gather resources, we graduated and became big, now na international artist dey ask naija artist for collaboration, Ghanaians are acting too big, dey don’t want to drop dat pride, I will advice, accept naija artists as ur boss, come down and learn d bussiness, with time y’all will understand and be like us
Bro is spitting facts oo... Music requires heavy promotion regardless of how good the song is . Warner reportedly spent over $400k to promote Ckay's Love Nwatiti. I think Ghana's music industry really needs to develop it's musical structure to help their artists.
They are not sleeping . They occupied themselves with beef , envy , jealousy , bitterness , anger , hatred , backstabbing , backbiting and the pull him down syndrome .
@@bernard5260 A typical Ghanaians have come with excuse. Keep Bringing excuse for your lack of seriousness and results. Take this from me... Even if they break Nigeria into 4 countries each of the 4 countries will still do better than Ghana in terms of entertainment. 💪
Even the stability song you are trying to downplay has a fantastic quality beat..The beat is fantastic and the song was authentic with infusion of our language to the lyrics…Nigerian musicians are talented and authentic…Talent without authenticity will take you nowhere…Ghanaian musicians are also talented but most of them lack authenticity….
I personally feel like Ghanaians artists don’t know how to promote their music, they just post and go. As someone living in the uk sometimes I won’t even notice they have dropped a song. Being a musician isn’t just about dropping bangers but it’s about pushing music and your brand.
Ghana's hateful and envious spirit is holding them back. Meanwhile, Nigeria is making progress by cooperating and helping one another. When Wizkid plays on a big arena, he will invite a new Nigerian artist to the stage, to help introduce the person to the world.
If you don't listen to what your audience wants, that's what happens. Our artiste dema ears haaaaaaaaaaard. We also like family and friends too much. Artiste are not adding value to their crafts. Some artistes need serious vocal finesse. If the producer or sound engineer is not delivering, let him know or let him go. We need to be honest with ourselves when a production is bad. Unfortunately the fans and bloggers are not helping. This thing is called showbiz. Unfortunately, many of our artistes die off too quickly for most of these reasons. This is business, but we don't take it as such. Blacko is not ready and cannot do anything about it. These same elements I mentioned are gradually dragging him down.
Entertainment and Music = Nigeria Tourism and Hospitality = Ghana We'll even give you all oily Ghana jollof And we'll keep original pidgin English Case closed
@@FootballFansExtra i mean you’re laughing but I don’t see any Ghanaians dominating international charts like Nigerians are. In minutes to days you see a Naija song with millions of views while Ghanaian songs can barely reach a million on youtube sometimes. You see them in the interviews, the features, the remixes. A couple of them like Mr.Eazi and Rema have even talked about coming to Ghana and learning more about the music styles to perfect their styles.
@@queenawill3542 That's what you think. Nigerians comes or go to places with humble mind to get what they want. Remember they have and they know what they wanted before leaving Nigeria. You see them perfecting their craft in your country but failed to understand the plan. Reason you want learn. keep laying claims and not learn
Specification by borders isn't really working for us tbh, when music is good, it's good. You can't fight it. I love Ghanaian music, as do so many other Nigerians. The deal though, if Ghanaians are getting worked up by things like this, what do you want the rest of Africa to do? Nigerian songs are African pride, just as Ghanaian tourism makes me happy 😊
I do not believe people or anybody should be forced or compelled by any means whatsoever to listen or appreciate good music,when a song is good people will listen to it no matter wherever its coming from,I believe songs by Nigerian artistes are not the only songs played in Ghana,you do not judge people by what they listen to,its a choice
Imagine a Nigerian did the "Win" track by Kofi Mole and Kwesi Arthur. It would have been all over the place. Such a beautiful song isn't trending globally as it should be. Why?!
Once upon a time, it was makosa and we Nigerians vibed to it without issues. If the music is good, the world will preach and navigate towards your sound. Sarkodie has done it. The answer to this is more visibility, instead of fighting for air plays, look for features with those currently doing it. Amapiano has been trending, how many Ghanian songs have jumped on the trend. These are the issues.

Mzvee has a song with Stonebwoy off her new album (1030) that if was marketed properly would have been global and contested for record of the year (VGMA) but here we are.
That album is a 10/10 album But she herself slept on the album We can’t do anything about it Very talented singer but I think she’s too comfortable where she is now
Is all about money . Is money ooo, money. The big men with cash wont invest it into arts.if despite have a record label , cheddar , them. Everything u see is money.
@@adomglory7867 lol..... it's about money yh.... sometimes I think the artists also need to convince such investors n be consistent MzVee's album like this has been low cos she's sleeping on it... she feels legendary thinking the album would sell on its own...
Stonebwoy is now signed to a huge record label.He has released a few songs from his upcoming album so I’m waiting to see the numbers from Stonebowy’s new album.The few songs Stonebwoy has released do not command the numbers.The songs are not even on top 100 billboards charts.Ghanaians always talk about plugs and record labels.Stonebwoy has the plugs and record labels now but we aren’t seeing the results.No more excuses for losing.
Yes, he is. But look at Stone’s style of music. He’s not an afrobeats singer. He’s an Afro fusion singer. The Billboard 100 is not easy to land on. Yes, Rema, Burna, and Tems did it. But look at how long it took them to do it. It’s not easy. You mentioned you’re not seeing the results. The guy just signed onto the label. It’s going to take time.
Nigerian dominance did not happen overnight. they created legislature that has ultimately forced innovation and talent generation. SA have the same law. it's not a coincidence they are the two biggest countries when it comes to African entertainment (music and movies). surprised you didn't address that.
Stop saying shit. We don't have any legislation by government to develop our music. Why don't you point to the document proving your point? You Ghanaians lie a lot.
Sarkodie's unwillingness to sign to a huge record label has dramatically affected his ability to penetrate globally. If his career dies off, he'll have himself to blame. He's no more making the numbers like he used to. Perhaps he needs to change things up dramatically but strategically. I think people are gradually getting over ( if they are not over already) his style. I still believe that the Bob Marley feature could have changed things for the better. It could have been more on the rhythm of the song rather than a strong, fast-paced rap that didn't really appeal to a broader audience.
Correction: WE think he’s not international. He’s definitely international, but because he’s a rapper he’s not going to be on the level of an afrobeats singer like Burna, Wiz etc. In terms of talent, Sark is in the same league as them. WE just don’t see him that way.
@Kwam D. The premise is not whether he is international or not. The issue here is, his ability to compete for global presence is the problem. His is not capable at this point. He cannot compete with Mavins not to talk of the big wigs like Empire, Sony and Def Jamz. Check his numbers for the record.
International labels are like international football clubs , if you don't meet their criteria you can't be sign ,stop saying he is refusing to sign . akon tried to help him but Akon realized that the guy only want to remain a local hero
Ghanaian artists and other Africans are busy complaining about Nigerian success instead of collaborating and humbling yourself to link with where the successs lies so they too can grow. Look at Bryan Adams, Drake, Justin bieber, Shania Twain, Celine Dion, Avril Lavigne, etc who are Canadians, but they link up with the Americans and even go to live in USA so that they can plug into the American market. Now, see how successful and unversal those Canadian artists are all over the world.
That odewu song cough by Kizz Daniel blew up before the song was released.. it's like Finesse by Pheelz . Those songs blew up before release. The truth is if you build up a brand for your artists and create a fanbase, their music will move out fast. Ghanaian artists are just making songs but there is no vibrant pop culture to support it. Nigerians have created a pop culture that has gone global. The language(pidgin), the swag, the music, the movies, the bad reputation (scam), the good reputation (spenders, lovers, travellers, vibrant diaspora). It is everything Nigerians are known globally for good and bad it makes them, their music and culture marketable. Infact Nigeria is at a point where their culture markets itself
If the stability was sang by the GH lady you mentioned, it would sound nothing like Ayra Starr's because they are different artistes with different vibes, sounds and approach to music. I've never heard this Wendy lady sing before but maybe those who have, know stability would have sounded completely different if she had sang it 🤷. They are from two different backgrounds and don't approach music the same way. Even if it was Tiwa that sang stability it won't be the same way Ayra sang it. The chorus is sampled exactly as Awilo Logonba sang his chorus so if you think it's trash then you maybe don't like Awilo's songs or maybe that particular one. And let's not forget that no matter how similar GH people think Nigeria is to them, we do not speak the same way nor have the same contexts so stability may sound like noisy jibberish to you but it has meaning to us at the end of the day music is subjective. If any GH rapper were to rap a song that an SA artiste is getting so much hype for it won't be the same because each nation has a unique flavour they add to a song and another person singing it, may make it become distasteful.
This is exactly all I have always said. We sound differently. Our thick and deep accent help our songs compared to the lighter accent of Ghanaians. Why have many people not noticed this.
@@yaaobenewaah1697 what artist in your country has dropped your so called "ordinary song" that's can outclass this piece...hmm sarko.. wetin abi ur swimming poo artist?😂
As someone involved in music production, I can tell you that big recording companies only look for musicians who have multiple hit songs under their names and are capable of making more hits …You don’t just decide to join a recording company..Those Ghanaian artistes who insist that they don’t need recording companies know that they have what it takes to join one…How many hit songs come out of Ghana every?????? It’s high time we said the truth.. You couldn’t even give credit to artistes listed…If a song is not good enough, it will never make to the top of the list regardless of how well you promote the song….
What he is saying in essence is that there is still a system in place for the business of music and that system is shared and evident across all boards of the entertainment industry. There are talented and untalented people everywhere in all aspects. I have seen untalented people in Nigeria and so is there in Ghana but the difference is the conscious effort and pool of support that will push everyone unlike a country we all know about.
Don't say Ghanaians have better talent than Nigerians, you are being bias. We sit here in our country and the people themselves decide to listen to Nigerian songs.This is not the first time its been there for ages.
I don't understand all these eagerness of Ghanaians to be at par with Nigerian artists. They should learn to work their craft gradually and stop this obsession to ride on the same wavelengths as the Nigerian artists. Success comes with hard work not noise

Just that our stars drop songs almost every 2 weeks. Nigerian artists don’t rest cus there’s serious competition among us here alone. Sugarcane was all over Nigeria. It stayed top 10 here for so long especially the remix. So you are right on the marketing aspect.
I see some Ghanaians comments downplaying the efforts of Nigerians, emphasizing on our population. Ok no problem! Since it's about numbers now, I think the list of best music in Africa should look like this.
Nigeria
Ethiopia
Egypt
DR Congo
South Africa
Tanzania
Kenya
Uganda
Algeria
Sudan. Thanks 👍
Leave them....... Make Dem dey play......... They are always full of excuses.....
Typical Ghanaians always jealous of African nations doing better than them in some aspects.
They love excuses
Nigerians and Ghanaians sound differently. Our accents differ. Even if a Ghanaian sings Soso or Calm down or Sability it won't sound the same. Even the Nigerian Pidgin sounds unique and widely accepted. We are linguistically different. Listen k Odeyewu, let a Ghanaian sing it you would see it sounds different and may not be as appealing as a Nigerian singing it. Its not just about structures and investment. Intonation matters. Let's all face areas we have comparative advantage and stop the unhealthy competition.
VERY UNHEALTHY COMPETITION INDEED!
Must everyone be in music? I believe God blessed us all in different areas. Find your area of specialty and work on that.
Oh please Nigerians are just better promoting their music. TikTok has definitely helped u guys with the western audience. Nigerians also population plays a big role.
@@PatBoahen…Ghana is blessed with handcraft,artisan , use it to conquer the world. Stop following Nigeria when it comes to music.
@@PatBoahen Rest abeg😂😂😂 Bad belle
@@goldogunmola770 it’s true
It is important for Ghanaians to know that music is not a cultural exchange!
The current Nigerian music wave is not "targeted" at just the Ghanaian market!
The Afrobeats wave is global!!!
It is across Africa, the Caribbean, Europe and even encroaching in America!
Ghana man dem for chill!
👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
This is just the beginning, come 31st march Davido is coming to destroy that chart permanently for Ghanaians.

Nigeria dierrrr no size I love them because of their songs and entertainment industry in general, even the Yoruba songs Dey bee me pass though I don’t even understand
Watching u live from university of Education winneba
Years ago naija artist dropped Dia ego, we romance artist from
Other countries, we learned and gather resources, we graduated and became big, now na international artist dey ask naija artist for collaboration, Ghanaians are acting too big, dey don’t want to drop dat pride, I will advice, accept naija artists as ur boss, come down and learn d bussiness, with time y’all will understand and be like us
Bro is spitting facts oo... Music requires heavy promotion regardless of how good the song is .
Warner reportedly spent over $400k to promote Ckay's Love Nwatiti.
I think Ghana's music industry really needs to develop it's musical structure to help their artists.
platforms like yours is a great place to promote our own Ghanaian songs as well
He does it
I guess you're new here tho.
He does it but most Ghanaian artist don't even appreciate, lol
@@selorm522so sad

I had to subscribe, no jokes men you are good...
You are right! But, talent in Nigeria isn't 1%..but I understand your point.
We should leave the music and entertainment to them and take tourism and hospitality (That part really cracked me up)😅😂😊😂😂😂😂
Even the stability song you are trying to downplay has a fantastic quality beat..The beat is fantastic and the song was authentic with infusion of our language to the lyrics…Nigerian musicians are talented and authentic…Talent without authenticity will take you nowhere…Ghanaian musicians are also talented but most of them lack authenticity….
Absolutely. Sheldon went low
Everywhere Odo yewu😂🔥🔥🔥
I personally feel like Ghanaians artists don’t know how to promote their music, they just post and go. As someone living in the uk sometimes I won’t even notice they have dropped a song. Being a musician isn’t just about dropping bangers but it’s about pushing music and your brand.
Stingy pipo , spend money

Please have sense . I’m a Nigerian but why will you say Nigeria owns Ghana 🤦🏾♀️
Owns who? Gtfo your people are coming to ghana for criminal activities.
Ghana's hateful and envious spirit is holding them back. Meanwhile, Nigeria is making progress by cooperating and helping one another. When Wizkid plays on a big arena, he will invite a new Nigerian artist to the stage, to help introduce the person to the world.
Musicians are really working hard✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
If you don't listen to what your audience wants, that's what happens. Our artiste dema ears haaaaaaaaaaard. We also like family and friends too much. Artiste are not adding value to their crafts. Some artistes need serious vocal finesse. If the producer or sound engineer is not delivering, let him know or let him go. We need to be honest with ourselves when a production is bad. Unfortunately the fans and bloggers are not helping. This thing is called showbiz. Unfortunately, many of our artistes die off too quickly for most of these reasons. This is business, but we don't take it as such.
Blacko is not ready and cannot do anything about it. These same elements I mentioned are gradually dragging him down.
There's a difference between working hard and working smart.
Entertainment and Music = Nigeria
Tourism and Hospitality = Ghana
We'll even give you all oily Ghana jollof
And we'll keep original pidgin English
Case closed
My broda na Kenya and South Africa get Tourism
Ghana isn't among top 20 countries in Africa when we talking about tourism ,in west Africa Ghana isn't even among top 5

Except one is due to the hardwork of the average Nigerian and the other is due to the government. Stop comparing entertainment to tourism!

Funny thing is a lot of Nigerian come to Ghana to perfect their craft.

@@FootballFansExtra i mean you’re laughing but I don’t see any Ghanaians dominating international charts like Nigerians are. In minutes to days you see a Naija song with millions of views while Ghanaian songs can barely reach a million on youtube sometimes. You see them in the interviews, the features, the remixes. A couple of them like Mr.Eazi and Rema have even talked about coming to Ghana and learning more about the music styles to perfect their styles.
@@queenawill3542 That's what you think. Nigerians comes or go to places with humble mind to get what they want. Remember they have and they know what they wanted before leaving Nigeria.

Big ups to DON JAZZY
Specification by borders isn't really working for us tbh, when music is good, it's good. You can't fight it. I love Ghanaian music, as do so many other Nigerians. The deal though, if Ghanaians are getting worked up by things like this, what do you want the rest of Africa to do? Nigerian songs are African pride, just as Ghanaian tourism makes me happy 😊
I do not believe people or anybody should be forced or compelled by any means whatsoever to listen or appreciate good music,when a song is good people will listen to it no matter wherever its coming from,I believe songs by Nigerian artistes are not the only songs played in Ghana,you do not judge people by what they listen to,its a choice
Excellent

Imagine a Nigerian did the "Win" track by Kofi Mole and Kwesi Arthur. It would have been all over the place. Such a beautiful song isn't trending globally as it should be. Why?!
Also, Ghanaians don’t know how to do promo

I'm sorry that song is an "ok" song, not a banga. Plus xtra heavy on the autotune.
Lol. That's your opinion.

On that swimming pool note, we know who Sheldon is referring to.
😅
Shatte wale
On point bro, you are right!
Once upon a time, it was makosa and we Nigerians vibed to it without issues. If the music is good, the world will preach and navigate towards your sound. Sarkodie has done it. The answer to this is more visibility, instead of fighting for air plays, look for features with those currently doing it. Amapiano has been trending, how many Ghanian songs have jumped on the trend. These are the issues.
Nigerians already plug their musics so idey trend all African countries not ghana alone bro

Plug your yansh too

Gyimi ! Kwasia !! Aboa !!! You will end up committing suicide over Nigeria . Who advised your so called Kwame Nkrumah to further his studies in order to be useful in life after obtaining a mere teacher's certificate at Achimota ? Nnamdi Azikiwe did . The kwasia people of Ghana land are only known for bitterness , unhealthy competition , rivalry and the constant pull him down syndrome . The hate among Ghanaians has made them worthless and undeveloped . Recollect that aside the Chinese , Nigerians are the second largest investors in Ghana . Ghanaians are naturally unproductive , unintelligent , unsuccessful and lazy . Ghana is like a mere federating state in Nigeria .
Who told we are bragging? It's the world that loves our music/art so much they can't get enough. ..that's why our artistes are always working hard to bring out bangers while you bankus keep getting mad at our success.

Mzvee has a song with Stonebwoy off her new album (1030) that if was marketed properly would have been global and contested for record of the year (VGMA) but here we are.

If you are not from nigeria you no go understand Gwagwalada .... Gwagwalada is a town in Abuja
Stonebwoy is now signed to a huge record label.He has released a few songs from his upcoming album so I’m waiting to see the numbers from Stonebowy’s new album.The few songs Stonebwoy has released do not command the numbers.The songs are not even on top 100 billboards charts.Ghanaians always talk about plugs and record labels.Stonebwoy has the plugs and record labels now but we aren’t seeing the results.No more excuses for losing.
Yes, he is. But look at Stone’s style of music. He’s not an afrobeats singer. He’s an Afro fusion singer.
The Billboard 100 is not easy to land on. Yes, Rema, Burna, and Tems did it. But look at how long it took them to do it. It’s not easy. You mentioned you’re not seeing the results. The guy just signed onto the label. It’s going to take time.

It cost 200K to get a song to hit in the U.S alone, we got the sound we have to study the market and execute strategically music biz is 90% marketing
Nigerian dominance did not happen overnight. they created legislature that has ultimately forced innovation and talent generation. SA have the same law. it's not a coincidence they are the two biggest countries when it comes to African entertainment (music and movies). surprised you didn't address that.
Stop saying shit. We don't have any legislation by government to develop our music. Why don't you point to the document proving your point?
You Ghanaians lie a lot.
Our music appeals to Ghanaians alone
We just need a good musical structure so that the labels would come in 4 our artists
Sarkodie's unwillingness to sign to a huge record label has dramatically affected his ability to penetrate globally. If his career dies off, he'll have himself to blame. He's no more making the numbers like he used to. Perhaps he needs to change things up dramatically but strategically. I think people are gradually getting over ( if they are not over already) his style.
I still believe that the Bob Marley feature could have changed things for the better. It could have been more on the rhythm of the song rather than a strong, fast-paced rap that didn't really appeal to a broader audience.
For real and he has been in the scene for a long time and Sarkodie really has not reached on an international level like he should’ve been
Correction: WE think he’s not international. He’s definitely international, but because he’s a rapper he’s not going to be on the level of an afrobeats singer like Burna, Wiz etc. In terms of talent, Sark is in the same league as them. WE just don’t see him that way.
@Kwam D. The premise is not whether he is international or not. The issue here is, his ability to compete for global presence is the problem. His is not capable at this point. He cannot compete with Mavins not to talk of the big wigs like Empire, Sony and Def Jamz. Check his numbers for the record.
International labels are like international football clubs , if you don't meet their criteria you can't be sign ,stop saying he is refusing to sign . akon tried to help him but Akon realized that the guy only want to remain a local hero
Ghanaian artists and other Africans are busy complaining about Nigerian success instead of collaborating and humbling yourself to link with where the successs lies so they too can grow. Look at Bryan Adams, Drake, Justin bieber, Shania Twain, Celine Dion, Avril Lavigne, etc who are Canadians, but they link up with the Americans and even go to live in USA so that they can plug into the American market. Now, see how successful and unversal those Canadian artists are all over the world.
That odewu song cough by Kizz Daniel blew up before the song was released.. it's like Finesse by Pheelz . Those songs blew up before release.
The truth is if you build up a brand for your artists and create a fanbase, their music will move out fast.
Ghanaian artists are just making songs but there is no vibrant pop culture to support it. Nigerians have created a pop culture that has gone global. The language(pidgin), the swag, the music, the movies, the bad reputation (scam), the good reputation (spenders, lovers, travellers, vibrant diaspora). It is everything Nigerians are known globally for good and bad it makes them, their music and culture marketable. Infact Nigeria is at a point where their culture markets itself
Realest comments….
You must be a surgeon!that was a surgical dissection 😂😂.
This comment deserve Grammy award 🥇
True
"Sability" nu de3 edey bee waaaaa.
The first time i heard that song aplay saaaa.
If the stability was sang by the GH lady you mentioned, it would sound nothing like Ayra Starr's because they are different artistes with different vibes, sounds and approach to music. I've never heard this Wendy lady sing before but maybe those who have, know stability would have sounded completely different if she had sang it 🤷. They are from two different backgrounds and don't approach music the same way. Even if it was Tiwa that sang stability it won't be the same way Ayra sang it. The chorus is sampled exactly as Awilo Logonba sang his chorus so if you think it's trash then you maybe don't like Awilo's songs or maybe that particular one. And let's not forget that no matter how similar GH people think Nigeria is to them, we do not speak the same way nor have the same contexts so stability may sound like noisy jibberish to you but it has meaning to us at the end of the day music is subjective. If any GH rapper were to rap a song that an SA artiste is getting so much hype for it won't be the same because each nation has a unique flavour they add to a song and another person singing it, may make it become distasteful.
Obviously they won't sound same, he is just laying emphasis and drawing comparison to attitude oflisternership btwen naija and gh.
Factology
Well said. Our lingo isn’t the same, but we do have some cultural similarities.
He doesn't meant it literally that way. He is only making an comparison. That if Wendy Shay had done a song similar to what Ayra did,......
This is exactly all I have always said. We sound differently. Our thick and deep accent help our songs compared to the lighter accent of Ghanaians. Why have many people not noticed this.

Lmao wow! Ei

What he is saying in essence is that there is still a system in place for the business of music and that system is shared and evident across all boards of the entertainment industry. There are talented and untalented people everywhere in all aspects. I have seen untalented people in Nigeria and so is there in Ghana but the difference is the conscious effort and pool of support that will push everyone unlike a country we all know about.
Don't say Ghanaians have better talent than Nigerians, you are being bias. We sit here in our country and the people themselves decide to listen to Nigerian songs.This is not the first time its been there for ages.
