even if he does, he won't smell the top here except he's musically good and can be dropping hit from time to time.

If he's not good, don jazzy sef no go see am.

then ask may D why he isn't maintaining the success . Unless you are not music inclined yourself . Shatta wale is a good artist . Ridding on ragga and afropop

Shaytun:
Ghanaians have a myopic view of the world, that’s why you guys can’t have a global industry.

and do you know this Ghana you underate happens to have one of the leading musical industry in africa ( Ghana should be in top 3 ) just behind Nigeria and south africa . Shattah wale and sark has also made some strive giant by featuring big international artist .

Luzebox:
don jazzy signed DNA twins,dija,IP ...where Dem dey...even dprince���

he also signed dbanj and wande coal too. And this last two have made names for themself. Some artist refused to work on their success . May D is a typical example

theenchanter:
ask shatta wale to come and meet don jazzy so he can blow.

Yes, if he is ready to ride on another man success . Shatta wale is a success in Ghana as far as Ghanaian are concerned. And no Nigeria artist can compete him down here .

Luzebox:
...I taya oo...I just told him Temz had no record backing..and was just signed recently...she did it by herself..with hard work and talent...e no gree

why are you guys like this . Davido also blows on his own account . But how much of nigerian musicians are already self made millionaire before coming to the industry.

It is like you like to choose the kind of argument that never agree with your reason without trying to read everything

theenchanter:
Vaxx doesn't need to be dignified with further response, dude is just incoherent.

In his head, Nigerian artists are not self made while Ghanaian artists are self made, so Ghanaian artists should be more respected.

I doubt if he even know that most Nigerian artists are self made, in fact, the competition in our music industry is very stiff, it's either u go hard or go home. New music comes out almost every week, so to be relevant, u have to be on top of ur game. Very minimal number of Ghanaian artists can survive Nigerian music space, but I can vouch for king sark.

But the good thing about our music industry is that they collaborate a lot, they don't see each other as opposition, reason a top Nigerian artist can ask a new artist to bring his song for him to feature. They rarely beef.

As for international scene, we didn't just get there overnight, some artists paved the way through Akon around 2008 or so, then we began to feature international artists..... Now, international artists call Nigerian artists for feature, now we're here dragging international awards with international artists...

Now vaxx is blabbing.

and who told you stiffed competition is not existing anywhere ? Oga if you get money , organised make them link you with don jazzy , if you know go blow

Shaytun:
Can’t you see you are contradicting yourself?

You are saying its grace and favour that will make you blow, in the same statement, you are saying it’s Record label and money.

If it’s just Record label and money that makes an artist, we will have thousands of Global artist by now.

it is because you read my write up with your one eyes closed . I said it will takes you favor and grace to rised to the level of global icon on your own without passing thru already made hand in the industry for you to be successful in Nigeria music industry as an upcoming artist, you will have to pay for it. And I mean really pay for it .

Luzebox:
I think your idea of success is different from ours...sark and shatta are not successful by Nigeria standard...shatta is mainly know in Ghana outside he is an upcoming art...sark is only relivant in Ghana ..I can't remember wen last his track was trending...temz without record deal is international.. being nominated for a grammy

as far as Ghanaian are concerned, shatta wale and sark are very successful musicians , maybe not on the level of what you wanted from him as Nigerians Since many Nigeria artist have pushed more weight . And I gave you the reason , music has being hijacked by successful business record label in Nigeria . The more you can spend , the more viral and successful the artist will trend .

Black sheriff is working with a successful Nigeria record label hence the reason for his current success in Nigeria musical industry . Shatta wale is a lone soldier . Who remain very creative to remain in the industry .

Shaytun:
How?

You have not answered the simple question, How did olamide blow portable?

80% of hip hop lyrics is indecent, does that stop their song from becoming popular, or do you think only decent song should be allowed to blow.

Art is many form, its neither good nor bad, decent or indecent, you can express art in whatever way you want.

it’s not rigid , there’s no special way to sing, you express your art in whatever way gives you inspiration. Fela sings and perform in boxers does that makes his song nonsense.

Portable is from the street, he gets his inspiration from trenches, so he uses street slangs to express himself, you saying he sings nonsense because you consider his song indecent makes you an ignorant fellow.

simply by having his voice on his first tracks . The olamide side of sells him. And many people agree .

Now to the remaining wordings ( music should be a reflective of culture and lifestyle of a society) the more portable keeps producing such kind of street gems, it shows how the kind of the society he was brought up really looks . Tupac sings hardcore music but everyone of us grow up to love and admire his wealth of experience and wisdom in his track despite it being a hardcore . Tupac lyrics alone can be study at University level.

Fela with his stench smoke has a lot of wisdom to offer in his artistic kind of music. So being a street boy shouldn't relegate your voice to street language., Unless your audience are only to attract street urchins.

Luzebox:
it the artists fault...sark is trying to make it in a genre that is not Ghanaian while speaking twi...most rap audiences listen to the lyrics... Ghanaians have lost originality doing other peoples genre expecting to go worldwide...look at tems..she just got sign Sept 2021...and was already international before then[

Hence the reason you still have to respect those guys , they walk the ladder of success on their own account . It takes grace . Shatta wale sometimes have to organize journalist and pay them , pay for report article , do all sort of thing just to remain relevant . They have to pay for public notification in all sort .

We live in a globalized village , even olamide is into afropop now and he started with rap music. In today world , you must identify how to carry the crowd along ( you must ensure you keep the trending space ) the more they talk about you , the more you remain in the chart. You will even realized some artist went as far as organizing a sex tape just to remain in the lime light ( some may argue it is organizing that is indeed real) but what I knows is that the sex tape has keep some of them relevant . I know some of you deleted you bible apps just to download this very girl sex leaked video . the more trending , the more the business keep you.

Luzebox:
that what happened...olamide has also put many people on...that has failed..it all depends on the artist

so true , olamide is becoming more like a brand now. . There is a time when don jazzy recognized you and no matter the kind of music you will do , you will blow like fire . May d has come and gone . Some of this identify artist aren't unable to sustain the success .

Luzebox:
Didn't one corner blow or mans not hot... sometimes stupid songs end up trending because of its stupidity...like portable or terry g

Even if it will happen like that, it will take grace and favour to blow on your
own account. music is business.

Luzebox:
sark is signed to duncwills entertainment

That is after he made it not before he made it on his own accord . It is just like how don jassy managed dbanj before he got american deals but one classic fact is sark managed his way to top level all by self sponsoring before getting endorsement deals.

theenchanter:
who made burna Boy blow up and who made wizkid internationally recognized?

You want to talk about wizkid without remembering banky w. You want to talk about burna boy without remembering aristokrat.... They are even two

theenchanter:
Vaxx is just saying rubbish......

your own opinion

Shaytun:
The fact that you think olamide blow portable and that portable song does not make sense, tells me you really do not know what you’re talking about.

The rest of your statement stems from ignorance.

so wise ,olamide , poco lee blows him , he can't ever deny it and you can rant I care not. Yes he sing nonsense ( eyin obo adugbo wa alone tell it all) how can someone record that in studio. "" The pussy in our area """and it called that a track .


Learn if you are willing

POKUASI2:
Who knows DR DUNCAN who single handedly sponsored sarkodie and made him who he is today..

music business is for serious business people not a broke legend .go read about how sarkodie self sponsored himself to lime light. No spoon-feeding anymore .

POKUASI2:
why didn't Egypt and ethiopia come 2nd and third respectively if it's indeed about population.
Why are you, as you claim "doing better" than ethiopia or Egypt when their population is bigger than yours.
I don't know who or how but somebody needs to stop you Ghanaians from reproducing.
Humanity is in grave danger with you Ghanaians.
Satan did a very terrible job by creating you folks with no brains.
Y'all can't be created in God's own image because God isn't this dumb..

you always gives stupid and baseless question. How willing are the aforementioned country willing to invest in their art and movies. Egypt is a religious country ( she has little limit on what she can sponsored when it comes to art as a result of cultural influence . Ethiopia is still much a state controlled country. You know nothing bro. It is not a serious country for entrepreneurship. So much govt control.

Ghana understand the business now and it was even surprising to see Ghana at this position despite the little investment compared to Nigeria and the population wise.

You need to go back to class men, I am talking to an idiot . How am I so sure I am not talking to a villager

POKUASI2:
you're an airhead whose not worthy of being a human

who knows him ? It is questions . The rest you are doing are signs of madness

Shaytun:
Lol.

This is probably one of the most ridiculous statement I have ever heard in my life.

Half knowledge and ignorance I don’t know which is worse.

but can you dispute the ridiculous ? No , I guess . Every sensible nigerians knows this current guy zazu( portable) is actually not making sense , but olamide already polished and blow him and he understands entertainment very well which is using it to his own advantage

POKUASI2:
I can believe I'm having this conversation with a semi woke cave dweller from novrongo.
When did you Ghanaians start watching MTV tho and how many of you watch MTV or BET today to debate pop culture with..

I ask you again who knows him. If he must be known in Nigeria , he need to work firstly with the big boys

POKUASI2:
now it's population?
Why didn't they feed crocodile � with some of you.
You're not worth your human-ness

you must be mad cus I don't know how you expect 3 to be bigger than 10 particular when the 10 is not relaxing to increased his figure . Population palys a role hence the reason the us music is doing way better than the Uk. Despite uk high interest .


And Ghana artist are majorly self sponsored not like that kind of link me up that happens in Nigeria

POKUASI2:
self sponsored what?
How old are you and how sane are you up there?
Who is DR DUNCAN??

who knows him? Ask your self

POKUASI2:
don't you have business men in your country?

music hasn't been taught as big interest to them. And mr idiot , Ghana isn't doing bad despite the small population when compare to other countries

POKUASI2:
he blew azonto and couldn't start a "strong record label" to push your artists to the milky-way � galaxy.
Is it that most of you Ghanaian talk before thinking or what..
Hammer produced
sarkodie
Tinny
Kwaw kese
and EDEM..
I remember when I visited my brother in 2009 and hammer was on every radio and TV station promoting edem and songs like bra fr3 MI
And u dey craze.
Okyeame kwame woso was everywhere
Richie and ASEM was on every radio station.
Ask me what these artists had in common..
They were copying AMERICA SOUNDS of the time..
Meanwhile FAZE KOLOMENTAL AND 9CE GONGOASO was peoples' favorite in every hood party, birthdays and what have you

You are just an idiot , it is very simple it goes with how much you are willing to spend on a sponsor ( the deeper and connected your record label , the well known your artist ) simple , you are just talking in circles .

Hammer record sakordie tracks but sackordie is a self sponsored . He wasn't managed the way I'd cabassa managed olamide . Hammers is not a musicians but a producer . Olamide used I d cabassa glory then to rise to the lime light

POKUASI2:
ID cabbasa was a producer ooo..
Record labels in Nigeria became a thing when
When we had marketers in alaba international.
Who is talking record label in 2003 when all you need is a producer who will produce your work and you'll go looking for marketers at ALABA.
why are these people telling us our own history that some of us witnessed and lived through

that is to tell you how Nigeria music industry was hijacked by business men. By then you will have to work with a known producer.

Remind me again who assist phyno on his gost mode record

POKUASI2:
is ID cabbasa a "STRONG record label"?
Why didn't
Zapp malet
Appiatus
J cue
Hammer
Richie of links
Blow your own artists?

it is because you are a failed student who doesn't know that it is how deeper your pocket . I already analysed this earlier if you are not stupid , you wouldn't be asking same similar question.


Appiatus was even successful , he blows azonto

ProblemChild1:
Olamide Is the boss YBNL record group. Same goes to Phyno, he's the boss of PENTHOUSE record label and Tekno the boss of Made Men Music record label. I know them very well na.

I D cabbasa record tunes was the pioneer of olamide . It was after he was accepted that he become popular in his own. No Nigeria big artist rise on his own without a known record label except davido I repeat .

POKUASI2:
Olamide of omo to shun produced by empire
What are these people smoking?

you dey mad , na ID cabbasa blow olamide

ProblemChild1:
Olamide Is the boss YBNL record group. Same goes to Phyno, he's the boss of PENTHOUSE record label and Tekno the boss of Made Men Music record label. I know them very well na.

ogbeni na empire collaboration produce olamide some years ago, after he was denied automatic ticket from star quest .na after he blow he started his own record label ybnl. I go make research on the other two wey I know sabi for now

ProblemChild1:
Vaxx don speak pidgin by force no be only davido oo. [b]Olamide too, phyno, Tekno e[/b]tc.

go check fact na record label blow them. I sabi Pidgin , no be say I dey force am

ProblemChild1:
It's all about good music ma bro. Not all about sponsorship or record labels. It's how you push your music carrier to the next level oo.

Music is about business. If you like composed the best music ever as an upcoming artist, if you are not supported by any known record label( na oyo you dey) unless lucky meet favour on your side. But let don jazzy handle your rubbished and refurbished your nonsense if you know go blow . All the big artist for Nigeria wey blow na untop record label dem blow , na only davido no follow the ladder and na because money dey house .
