A Good Song Is About More Than Just Great Lyrics — Mark Okraku Mantey Yo Mzbel

MArk Okraku Mantey schools music.

CEO of Slip Music, Mark Okraku Mantey sets Mzbel straight about her claims that songs of today make no sense.

Moreover, Mzbel claimed in a recent interview that songs these days have no sensible lyrics.

“Back then, music used to have like a storyline, it’s well-done…you can’t compare music of today to music then.” 

“You hear a lot of hit songs, people are happy about it, but the content has nothing in it. In a lot of the songs the musician just says one thing, and keep repeating it over and over.” 

Mark Okraku responds to Mzbel’s assertion

However, Mantey responded to the claim. He stated what makes a good song is about more than just its lyrics.

“If you say music, music is the instrumentation, the rhythm is the music, and then the lyrics are lyrics.” 

Furthermore, he explained that music can cross barriers. Also, people can enjoy who don’t even understand the lyrics, indicating that it’s not just lyrics which make a good song.
