Rapper, Ayigbe Edem talks about the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n

Lately, the mantra is about supporting each other. Therefore, there should be 80% Ghanaian content.<\/p>\n

Shatta Wale even suggested that 95% of songs played on Ghanaian radio stations should be Ghanaian songs. All these are attempts to revamp the Ghanaian music industry and take it a step further.<\/p>\n

However, according to Edem, there are hypocrites in the industry. He pointed accusing fingers at the very own Ghanaian Artistes for failing to support themselves.<\/p>\n

Also, he bemoaned the lack of support from his fellow Ghanaian entertainers. He stated that some Ghanaian Artistes do not even like their own fellow Artiste\u2019s pictures on Instagram but rather rush to like the pictures of American and Nigerian stars.<\/p>\n

Edem about the lack of support among Ghanaian artists<\/h4>\n

Ghanaian Artiste Go fit like all American and Nigerian Starts dem pic for ig..But can\u2019t do same for ihn own brother for ihn backyard…Common tap of a button..So imagine if efor support u or help u ..Soo sad #<\/span>Edem<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
