Ghanaian entertainment stakeholder Kwame Yeboah has said that Ghana's industry rarely calls him to help them out.

The internationally acclaimed multi-instrumentalist and sound engineer exclaimed that as widely renowned as he is, the local music industry has hardly invited him to oversee its shows.

“I think people like me should be working in this industry or at least be helping in this industry. I don’t think I get called to help,” he said while speaking on Citi TV’s Upside Down show as a guest.

When asked what he felt was the reason he replied that the Ghanaian industry is not disciplined enough to recognize its talents, Kwame cited himself as an example, as he explained his levels of disciples when it comes to music.

“I think work-wise I would be seen as a difficult person because I’m strict with work and people here are not that strict with work and besides, I don’t subscribe to comments like let’s manage it. I think people say let’s take it as it is which I don’t take things as they are otherwise, I won’t be able to play with all the people I worked with,” he said.
