The music terrain in Ghana is just too tough for some people who venture.For various reasons, some acts just fail to sustain the shine or exposure they achieved with either a song, mixtape, albums.
Whiles some are still trying to remain relevant, others have not been heard of for years.
Below are artistes who took Eastern region and Ghana music by storm for one reason or the other, but failed or have failed to remain relevant because of their laziness.
1. 2IN One
Maybe the “whodada” is the only hit they got.2inOne took over Ghana by storm years back but today,they are nowhere to be found in the music scene.They haven’t released any new material and if they’ve done it, it hasn’t received the kinda blowup their “whodada” hit attained.Very lazy,not active on social media,lack promotional skills after they enjoyed their one year fame
2. Koo Ntakra
If after getting all the exposure on MTN Hitmaker, you’re still not shinning, what can we expect again.Koo Ntakra after winning the MTN hitmaker, he’s been quite active with releases but he’s not gotten an album out yet. Aside his single “wura wura” which he features Pope Skinny,mention one hit song by Koo Ntakra.He is weak on social media as well as his publications which is affecting him.
3. Breden B
Breden B is one of the best dancehall artistes in Eastern region. He keeps doing more freestyles and singles yet, not doing enough to attain mainstream status.I don’t think it’s gonna be anything different this year.Even though he is out with a new single,he is out there bragging with his previous hits.Relaxing on his past glories is seriously affecting him.
4. Dadesen
Should i call him Dadesen the legend? because he’s been there during the era of Kofcity Music,he was one of the top notch and all of a sudden he’s been missing in action.He’s done well to drop his usual creative tunes but the reception hasn’t been good.I know he’ll release a lot more materials this year but honestly I don’t think he can come back into mainstream the way he did in the past.He can’t go back to mainstream because of laziness.
5.Fresh Mayoka
He’s the king of freestyles but is that what Mayoka is all about ? He started his music career back in Senior High school before Koo Ntakra and others started by let’s ask where is Fresh Mayoka ? I don’t think he can do anything different this year that will allow him to rub shoulders with the Daybreak’s,Blaq Syrups who are seriously working to put the region on the map.Aside his stylish spitting of bars on beats,people are still complaining that,Fresh Mayoka lacks respect for his comrades that’s why he is not making it.
6. Racky Nova
He says he’s the king of Kofcity Music but I guess that’s all he’s gonna be.Yess Racky Nova deserve to be king of Kofcity because people don’t know him outside Koforidua.He isn’t doing enough to break loose from the underground status because Racky Nova is very lazy and I mean very “Lazy”.He is not active on Facebook,WhatsApp and all social media platforms.According to close source to our out,it divulged that,Racky Nova lacks respect for Dj’s in the region.
7. Talanku
Afer “Menseida with Praye, we all thought this was the time for him, but “Tweeeaa”, we got disappointed in the high life sensation Talanku.He sunk back into underground mode after relesing menseida.He ruled Ghana music, left and came back and that’s it.
His album last year had good tunes but he couldn’t capitalise to regain his status.We hope for better this year but our hopes are at a minimal because Talanku is still lazy
8.Tete Dompe
He’s young, talented but has the weakest management and am talking about his record label “Domsy Entertainment. There is still a tussle between his management and his music career.Im from the same town with Tete Dompe so I know what I’m talking about. This year is definitely not going to be the year we see him trust me.
9.Oteniba
He enjoys being on facebook and recording voice notes on whatsapp to insult his comrades up and coming artistes than making music to succeed.He’ll rather make a song to announce it to his fans on facebook than doing proper promotion.I don’t think we’re gonna hear anything different from him this year since radio personalities in Eastern Region still complains about his attitude.
10. Okurasini Samuel
After that first album, he’s just gone. He’s tried to come back but luck don finish..lol.Okurasini was one of the versatile artiste ever in Ghana but today,I don’t think he will be part of top 1,000 musicians in Ghana because he is very lazy over his talent.I so wish he can do something different but my instincts tell me his choir-like music is done.
11. A Qube
From dancehall, reggae to Afropop, to francophone,now to high life.These shows how versatility they .A Qube just gone from being at the top to the very bottom and now just left to playing small gigs. Things don’t look like it’s gonna be different for A Qube trustme.
