Chief Executive Officer of Rufftown Records, Bullet has threatened to move his label to Nigeria over the terrible Ghanaian laws put in place to keep record labels from achieving their full potentials in the entertainment sector.

According to him, there should be no laws that prevent record labels from endorsing alcoholic beverages and betting companies in Ghana because a lot of investment can be acquired from the said endorsements.

Bullet took to his social media pages to express his displeasure at the way things are being run in the country, describing the laws as "stringent/heart-wrenching laws which are gradually crippling record labels in Ghana".

He proceeded to make a bold prediction that there would be no record labels in Ghana in the nearest future due to these laws as the existing record labels will not be able to survive due to the unnecessary restrictions placed by the government.

Bullet further described the laws as deliberate attention the government's part to kill the creative industry.

"In a year or 2 there will be no record labels in Gh due to stringent/ heart-wrenching laws made by people occupying higher positions to collapse the creative arts 1st it was FDA, and now Gaming commission, I am moving Rufftown to Nigeria, if the gov’t doesn’t change these laws." 

“Ghana is not a place to operate a record label business and this is very sad.
Record labels do not make money from just shows where their artistes are billed to perform, majority of the money comes from endorsement deals. You people are always goofing with your laws. Do you guys have any idea of the devastating effects of COVID-19 on the creative arts.#theydontcareaboutthecreativearts.” He wrote.
