The Ghanaian Insider a renowned media and news company has raised a crucial issue that continues to plague the Ghanaian music industry the lack of genuine support for local artistes.
The post, shared on Instagram, highlights a disturbing trend where instead of rallying behind our musicians to help them break international boundaries, we focus on numbers, comparisons, and unrealistic expectations, creating unnecessary pressure that discourages artists from taking bold steps.
According to The Ghanaian Insider, many Ghanaian musicians hesitate to organize their own concerts, even after successfully filling 5,000 or 2,000-capacity venues, simply because of the fear of criticism and unrealistic comparisons.
While in other countries, artists receive massive support from their fans, media, and industry players, the Ghanaian music scene is often riddled with negativity and mockery, especially when artists try to expand their reach globally.
One of the key points made in the post is how fans and critics in Ghana focus too much on numbers, failing to recognize that some of the world’s most iconic venues hold just between 3,000 to 5,000 people.
Yet, when a Ghanaian artist achieves this feat, instead of appreciation, they are met with scrutiny and ridicule. This toxic cycle creates a fear-based industry, where even successful musicians second-guess their decisions due to public pressure.
Ghanaian artists have made significant global strides with their music. However, instead of celebrating these achievements, many fans remain fixated on concert capacities and superficial comparisons with artists from other countries.
The post concludes with a powerful call to action, Ghanaians must shift their mindset from criticism to support. Instead of discouraging artists.
One thing is certain—it’s time for a change. The Ghanaian music industry cannot thrive if the very people who should support it are the same ones tearing it down.
