Ghanaian Gospel Musicians Are Not Business Minded – Willie Roi

Music producer and Artiste Development Manager at Zylofon Music, Willie Roi has emphatically stated that Ghanaian gospel musicians are not business minded people.

Willi is certain that Ghanaian gospel artistes will excel if they should forgo some archaic methods.

Mr. Roi added that they should need to snap out of the archaic way of always singing in church during Sundays.

He however advised these artistes to start making money with their talents in the outside world.

According to Willi Roi, he believes the mentality (“I am doing for it for God”) is one of the factors why Ghanaian gospel musicians are not able to make it to the top.

“They need to explore the business aspect of their career. They should stop binding themselves with misquotations of the word of God,” he  said.

Willi was speaking as a pundit on Zylofon FM’s Showbiz Agenda with host, Sammy Flex.

Mark Okraku Mantey Remarks On Akoo Nana’s Video Concerning Giving Votes

A few days ago Akoo Nana shared a video on his Instagram page. Moreover, the video was about the BoG and Menzgold brouhaha. Therefore, he called on the president to stop the Central Bank of Ghana from defaming Menzgold. Otherwise, the NPP will lose 2020 elections.

Bullet Reacts To Allegations By Nana Opoku Kwarteng

Bullet hits back at Mr. Opoku-Kwarteng.

Over the weekend, the father of the late Ebony granted an interview to Adom FM. Furthermore, in that interview, he alleged that Bullet was a thief. According to him, Bullet gave him only two thousand (2,000) cedis out of an alleged forty thousand cedis (40k) of profit.

However, it seems Bullet has had enough of Mr. Opoku-Kwarteng’s allegations. Therefore, he called him a greedy man.

In a Facebook post, he stated that he now understands why some music groups and musicians did not prosper in the industry.

According to him, it is greed on the part of their family members that caused them to fade away quickly in the industry.

He went on to explain that not all the money an artiste makes from the show belong to the artiste. Also, management has a percentage. This is because they provide for the artiste in terms of costume, branding, promotion, videos, and many others.

Bullet’s post about allegations from Nana Opoku Kwarteng

“I now understand the reason why record labels like agiecot,goodies,Abib,first class,lexifry,lisarf,big Ben,kaakyire music,low down,,big daddy, odwenanoma,vybetown,slip music,bandex e.t.c stopped bringing out artist!GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED! Record labels spend millions to blow just one artist. Therefore, appreciate our effort and understand that you have ur talent and all your spiritual backings. However, video,music recording,music promotion,branding, welfare, costumes,air tickets,stylist,events, security, transport and everything about you the artist is money that the label spends. So don’t think any money that comes from shows and other avenues is for you the artist alone. You get what belongs to you and that is ur percentage…..!

Therefore, every business institutes want the same thing, they want your money.”
