I think, the campaign, “80% Local, 20% Foreign Content” on the Ghana entertainment market has really been a thing and the foreign content have only reduced in airplays.
As in, Radio & Tv DJs, Mobile DJs, etc have really adhered to the policies from the authorities in making our airwaves soo so local, but trust me, very soon we’ll have Nigeria Music Awards in Ghana, they have taken over our industry.
Ghanaians patronize Nigerian music than Ghana music and most of our artistes too are lazy and misers, they never want to invest in their musics.
When did Mr. Eazi come, he’s bigger than any artist in Ghana.
The Image below is a list of TOP 100, Ghana Apple Music and the Nigerian entertainers have dominated the chart, including the first 10.
Something must be done. Ghanaian musicians should wake up, produce quality songs, market the products so that the we can dominate on the digital market too not only the airwaves. Long way to go.
