There Is No Relevant Message in Dancehall Musics- Okomfor Kwadee
Dancehall music has taken over Ghana music industry . As a result, most up and coming rappers who should have switched to join the trend – Dancehall.
This music trend in Ghana beats the imagination of rapper
Okomfour Kwadee as he has condemned those who stand for it especially Shatta
Wale and Stonebwoy – remember they’re the most popular artists championing
Dancehall in Ghana at the moment.
“Are we proud as Ghanaians to be copying a genre like Dancehall music
which has no message? We have so many issues in the country we can address with
our music but a genre like Dancehall will never tackle such issues,” Okomfour
Kwadee told Showbiz in a recent interview.
More importantly, Okomfour Kwadee noted that the foreign influence in
our music is becoming too much and it is high time Ghanaian musicians
considered going back to our roots to reinvent Highllife music genre.
“Let’s get the African rhythm in our songs. Let’s tell our stories in
our music as I did with my songs. We have great talents in Ghana but it’s sad
we are copying from the foreign world,” Okomfour Kwadee advised.
