All these Nigerian artists you are talking about dominated the African scene before going global, Davido still had a mega concert in Rwanda last week, Burna is shutting down South Africa next month. I watched a Koffi Olomide concert as a boy years ago in Lagos, now I live abroad, if Koffi shows up in my city, I’d be the first to get a ticket. . Ask yourself, in what African country is Ghana music dominant today? In what African country has a Gh artist successfully headlined a concert in the last 5 years?

Why do Ghanaians shy from the fact that they don’t have enough Afrobeats hit. People are not buying Rap,Dancehall or Highlife. The world has been listening to Afrobeats and that’s why Nigerians can sale out venues. If I give Shatta wale or stonebwoy 2 million dollars to hosts a show at the 02 , I swear they can’t sale it out

C-Real 👍, "Culture daily" are now singing from "Baba Sadiq's hymn book" where he insist every🇳🇬 success has a "financial element or financial component", money money money. Not once has he mention "music or the sound", I'll advise 🇬🇭pundits to listen or bring on 🇬🇧promoters. Alordia and Dennis have both been emphatic, that 🇬🇭 music does not "cut across" into other communities and Ghanaians hardly attend shows (work & church) March 2022 my daughter went for Davido's show with 2 🇬🇭friends, when I asked if they were going for the next day's show (Kidi & Kuami Eugene's Indigo show) they weren't even aware 🤔🤔 To fill the O2 Arena your music must be popular & known and on "rotation on the radio and in clubs" in 🇬🇧, you must also have a solid fun base.. I have never heard Shatta’s song anywhere here 🇬🇧 "wishful thinking is not thing" 😡😤😡😤

Ghana doesnt have the following attributes and this why you can never own afrobeat...swag, class, intelligence, black excellence , creativity , perfection, fearlessness, success and confidence is embeded into the Nigerian lifestyle and culture which is Afrobeat!

To be honest, none of our artist. How many of them hv multiple crossover hit songs. If sark get like 5 adonais. He can fill. King promise get like 4 or 5 terminators All the Nigerians filling big Halls has global crossover hit songs. U cant use a song which is only popular in Ghana to go fill o2. That's what we lack

Coulda. Shoulda. Woulda.

Ghana Artist are only good in filling the PARKS because parks are free of CHARGE!!

This an intelligent, inspiring, informative show. These journalists are brilliant and well researched. They are pleasant to the ear, edifying. Thanks to these radio talk show host from Jamaica, W. I.

Ghana entertainment industry!🙄 Industry of lamentations and others success analysis. 90 percent talk, 10 percent work.

Bro, let All Ghanaians Artists come together and fill O2. Very soon Portable go fill O2. It is a shame on your Artists to be debating O2 since Asake give una headache. What a shame!!

How do you get 20,000 Ghanaians to fill out the O2 for an event they have little or no interest in but have to attend out of patriotism? This is not the same puzzle Nigerian artists deal with. For Nigerians, it is simply about getting fans of every nationality to attend their favorite artists' concerts. Ghanaians looking for shortcuts. Even if O2 gives you the arena for free and production for free, no Ghanaian can fill half of the O2. I don't even see why Ghanaians should be aspiring to sell out the O2. This wasn't i their agenda before. What I expect them to do is support Ghana in the Park and help that platform grow.

So some people go to wizkid show because of his lifestyle. This is why I said Ghanaian media don't know anything. Empty skol

No international label is going to sponsor a sarkodie that raps in Ghanaian language

When you've nit conquered Africa how can you get africans in diaspora buy tickets to your show

Olele please it's capacity not capacitor

I hope you guys won't talk about collaboration with Nigerians. Dont take your insult and beef to Nigeria. We're done with Nigerian's father Christmas towards ghana and other african countries.

Burna Boy…if you no make am…you go tire explain why!…need I say anymore 😅

That man that said he doesn't feel Asheke music doesn't have good taste for music and definitely will not make a goid music analyst or musician 😂😢

Ghana cannot even successfully tour African countries or dominate the biggest music market in Africa which is Nigeria, but their ego is doing the 02. You see the backwardness of this people, you want to run on the big stage when you cannot even crawl on the small stage. They keep asking the question why why why, but we are better than Nigerians, how come they are able to successfully do these wonders. Well, Talent and the business savvy needed in music or movies making no dey Ghana. This is truly the honest truth and the final analysis. So you have a country with a lot of egos on their perceived greatness but with nothing to show for it.

unfortunately, even if 10 ghanaian artists tour together sef they cannot sell those platforms

Ghanian don’t have swag to b the most influential South Africa will get dere b4 GHANA

By the way, late Fela Kuti performed at Apollo Theatre way before Sarkodie, but a typical Ghanaian would never acknowledge that..That’s why your musicians are not pushing hard for global recognition..You keep dwelling in the past event, it’s high time you guys moved on…Fela was the most recognized African musician of his generation, but Ghanaians would never mention that…He was also the most travelled musician of his generation…Apollo theater is just 1,538 capacity venue, and Ghanaian KZfaqrs keep talking about it…How do you expect Sarkodie to go to next level knowing that Ghanaians are still celebrating his performance at Apollo Theater? Smh…

Who stops them from getting a label.

The problem Is that we have focused on the shatta, sark, stonebyow while others don't get the same support I see it almost impossible for those three to fill doms The newer artist will

Yes, people do go to the concert because artists have hits songs and love able. No one want to listen to bad songs that they cannot vibe , or dance and relate to.

J foly, I will like to tell you more about afrobeat, the exdous of new afrobeat movement from late 90s to 2010.if get intoch with you.

Envil of Nigeria artists s giving some Africa countries hypertension

The 1 million will waste. It's not about money, it's about the name of the artistes.

Why is it that Ghanaian artists take money from promoters and refuse to perform? Stonebwoy took money from afronation detroit and refused to perform. Is this not fraud? And he is happily keeping the money

These guys are good.

Ghanaiana am a Nigerian, let me tell you Ghanaians, you people are neglected one person that can bring u people out there, which is shatter wale, that guy has the grace to bring Ghanians out there,but u people don't know what you have, shatter wale is the pillar of Ghanian music,am not his fan but I must say the truth, that guy has the grace to do unthinkable if Ghanians can give him chance...... Love from Naija

I think the problem is from both sides artistes and Ghanaians...artistes don't do the needed to get Ghanaians to love their songs also Ghanaians want artists to reach the stars without any ground to jump off... Our home here our music industry is nothing to write home about, artistes or any stakeholder would have to make some sacrifices to make sure our industry (The ground to jump off from) is good and capable of producing the kind of artistes we need first to reach the stars first

After appolo in 2015 Sarkodie did indigo 2016. N shatta also followed suit.

CAN I ASK YOU GUYS A QUESTION; WILL BUY MUSIC YOU DO NOT LIKE? ?

Ghanaian abroad don't like speeding money!!

The people who can do what you are proposing are not mentioned. Black Sherif is attractive and more sellable than all the artists you have mentioned.

02 na una mate?

so sak must fill 02 arena because asake did it. how about telling sak to sing good music instead of that twi nonsense

Olele open mouth waaah...1500 capacity Apollo like say na 10k. Yeye guy

A music star from Ghana in the eyes of blacks in the diaspora is representing Ghana only ,thus only Ghanaians how up. A Nigeria music superstar is representing all blacks from all over the world. so other black's such as the Caribbean's show up because in their eyes he is somehow representing them.

Debate debate and more debate. Charlie. Put in the works. Release good relatable music. Obviously your music is aimed at your local Ghanaian crowd, hence you sing mostly in your local dialect.

With this mentality you will keep struggling in till thy kingdom come 🤣

Creal on stonebwoy Taylor swift link up is apt❤️

Shatta should first get invite to perform in other African countries. Being a Star in Ghana doesn't make you a global Star. Sark, King Promise, Stoneboy, Kidi, Kumi are all bigger than Shatta outside Ghana. Ask yourself have Shatta sold out 5000 capacity in UK before? He should start selling 2000 first before dreaming big.

Lazy people

You don’t even have enough artists to sell your music and culture

Why is this guy talking about Micheal Jackson in the presence term.

Ghanaian artists need to make better music and be authentic with their muscis maybe the world will vibe to you guys music. You guys need to STOP calling and comparing your music to ours. Do you. I come in peace.

These people like to console themselves with denials. So they bought tickets to go see the brand? Ok let kidi or stonebwoy start doing same so they can fill arenas and stadiums

Make una leave music nah...

Our artists needs to invest more into fashion, associates their brands with footballers(stonebwoy & Kudus) and they need to stay in Europe more than Africa. Stonebwoy can decide to buy basketball jerseys in America, get autograph from famous players and start sharing it to people (especially young people)on the street. He can also take pictures and short videos with people just to grow the brand stonebwoy. Lastly, he and his management can get a cab(taxi) to pick people to work for free . All the above suggestions can grow Stonebwoy's brand in Europe and the music alone cannot do it. All our artists can do the same. You guys are doing an amazing job.👏👏👏

So bro you expect the fans to promote your product? No. You come out good quality music first. Sarkode sings mainly in his local dialect. Why attend a show when I don’t even understand the lyrics. The viewing numbers within Ghana is even very low,

That you guys are still talking about Sarkodie, Stonebuoy and Shatta Wale clearly shows that you guys lack focus,depending on the old skul, with their analogue methods. Think about the new catch,Camidoh,Gyakie, Kevin Boy,Olive the Boy etc. These are the ones who're gonna put your music space on the African scene. I speak about the African scene NOT the international scene because that'll be about a decade and a half away. However if you stick with your old skul gang,fame and international stardom will be over 4 to 5 decades away.

Ghana can't compare to Nigeria in wat ramifications

This guy sits down and repeat the same rubbish with no Cedis In their pocket ,

Liars!!! Show us the videos where Shatta Wale and Sarkodie sold out the Apollo theatre. Nigerians have those of Fela, Burna et al.

Focus on developing and improving your music first, stop all this we want to fill O2 Arena dis and that. Good music will naturally sold you globally. Ghanaians wake up. So are sleeping 😴

Nigerians sold out shows in African countries endearing themselves to all Africans in the continent and the diaspora, hence the wild spread of Nigerian music globally. Ghanaians on the other hand are looking for short cuts to success, ignoring Africa and jumping on mushroom shows in Europe and America where their songs are not known.

The whole of Ghana had only 4 semi-hit songs in the last 6 years. Forever- Gyakie, Sugarcane - Carmido, Touch it -Kiddi, Terminator - KP, and non reached 100m views on KZfaq, you guys are jokers, continue dreaming.

What kind of advert abi influencing is this,so weird and looks unprofessional and cheap for a company like 3music..do proper and captivating advert and stop this newspaper u are reading here

Burna boy's qualities brings people to stadiums. Your Ghana artists are ignorantly imitating Jamaicans and that's the reason of their failures. While nigeria artists makes music based on nigeria cultures and 100percent africaness .

The problem Is that we have focused on the shatta, sark, stonebyow while others don't get the same support I see it almost impossible for those three to fill doms The newer artist will
