Kamelyeon has pointed out that the Ghanaian media has propaganda against artistes who aren't interested in using "negativity" to trend.

According to him, because of the tendency for negative news to trend more, news media outlets always try to focus on artistes with beef.

Other artistes who do "good" or genuinely try to promote themselves with positive deeds get left out of the news because their stories are not "juicy" enough.

“There are many very talented artists out there who are putting out great content on a regular and pushing across diverse corners. Many are organizing their own shows with no external support from anybody."

"But they are not getting the spotlight from the media. The media in Ghana only highlights feuding artistes within our genre and forgets the rest and blames us for not working hard. Not every artiste can do ‘beef’ songs or engage in a clash."

"Me for example, I have been releasing songs nonstop but I wasn’t getting the buzz until I entered the ‘clash’ zone and dropped counteraction songs then the hype was in my corner. We don’t have to do it this way because it discourages a lot of other good Artistes out there who don’t beef.” He lamented. 

The Ghanaian Reggae/Dancehall artiste said this in the latest interview he honored on Atinka FM in Accra.

Kamelyeon's last album, released on November 13, 2020, has a fine combination of Reggae, Dancehall, and Afrobeats.

With over 60,000 streams already he has shot 5 videos from the catalogue.

Kamelyeon got signed to an Accra-based record label, 16th August 85 Villa in 2020. The 'Rainbow' EP was released under the label with Elorm Beenie as the frontline man pushing the works and running his PR for the project.
