It’s sad that the current Ghana Music Industry is dominated by only 3 artistes – Tic Tac ‘Weeps’
The Ghanaian industry compared to over a decade ago isn’t same as things have tremendously changed beyond imagination.

The Ghanaian industry compared to over a decade ago isn’t same as things have tremendously changed beyond imagination.
Initially, the industry pays attention to all and sundry by fairly pushing all talented artistes through to the limelight.
Presently, the industry is being ruled by only 3 artistes (Sarkodie, Shatta Wale & Stonebwoy) and legendary Hip-Life artiste, Tic, can’t think far.
Speaking to Citi TV‘s AJ Sarpong on Hall of Fame, the ‘Kwani Kwani’ singer intimated: “In Ghana when you do something and someone wants to promote it, hates sets it. Why? Even if the person will come spice the show-up, they won’t bring them because everybody wants to chop alone. That is the problem in our music industry. One man chop. Simple.”
He also expressed his displeasure about the fact that a few musicians are made to hijack the music scene.
“How can we have in a whole year, only three artistes doing shows when the whole nation has 100 artistes?” he asked. When asked if the few artistes being booked for shows are not just satisfying the demand and supply theory, he answered that “we create demand.”
His stand can’t be supported by the masses since it takes a lot of hard-work and investment to conquer the airwaves.
Also, it is every artiste’s dream to trend till eternity.
