Forget Ghana, only Nigeria can help you - Ghanaian artistes advised

Due to the recent unfavourable laws enacted by Ghanaian regulators on the activities of Ghanaian artistes, the artistes have been advised to seek respite in the Nigerian music market by Nigerian music business executive Godwin Tom.

According to him, Ghanaian artistes need to start thinking of ways to make waves in the Nigerian markets if they want to regal in the losses inflicted on them by the said laws.

He said this while speaking on Simply Showbiz on TV3.

"Ghanaian artistes have not really made their mark in Nigeria like their counterparts have done here in Ghana"

“When Laycon mentioned Kwesi Arthur, you would have expected that whoever he mentioned would have hit him up the moment he got out especially now that he had won.

“Before we come to Ghana to do any music work, we speak to Ghanaians to know which club and which radio to go to or who to retweet. We try to promote things before we even come.”

“Inasmuch as the music must connect, sometimes you need to promote the music in the other country too well. One of the guys who have done that so well is Diamond Platinum.

“He used to come to Nigeria whenever he had a project here. Even when it was a feature, he comes down and he speaks to people, on radio and all.

“The culture depends heavily on communication. When our artists make waves in Europe, America or elsewhere we make noise. We push them.”he said.

This comes after the recent ban on celebrities to stop advertising betting companies by the Gaming Comission.
