Artiste and music producer, Magnom talks about the current music in the country. According to him, most of the music played in Ghana does not accurately represent the country.<\/p>\n
He made these comments during an interview on the Cosmopolitan Mix on Joy FM. Moreover, he stated that the songs that dominate on radio, television and other medium are songs people hear. Therefore, they influence the production of a new song.<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand the artistes, because you could pour out 100 songs and maybe only one will get heard more for the whole year\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\u201ceverybody [artistes] feel like because we are playing this kind of music, they have to make that kind of music.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The \u2018My Baby\u2019 singer said that constant monopoly of some music reigning, shifts attention from producing unique tunes. This hinders the growth of the music industry.<\/p>\n
He stated many stakeholders like the artistes, the DJs, presenters and others are not playing their role in helping the industry grow.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think everybody understands the role they have to play in the game because if they [DJs, TV stations etc.] are just playing the same songs every single day, you are not helping the industry grow\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Magnom added some of the artistes are also pursuing the music career as a job and are not passionate about it. He said many of such artist do not put in enough efforts and hard work to make the good music.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are not researching about music and they do not love music. If you are into music you should know music and be able to predict an artist based on his abilities and not what it is now\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
