Efya Charges GHC 95,000 For A Show?
The last episode of the popular Youtube entertainment program for 2017, “Celebrity Ride With Zionfelix ” came off with songstress Efya.
As it is, every artiste has a specific amount of money they charge before performing at a show.
After a lengthy conversation with Efya, born Jane Awindoor, it is assumed the songstress is taking something closer to Ghc 95,000 for one show and she is of the view that she deserves it.
She was very reluctant in revealing the specific amount though. However, she confirmed that it is not a soupçon of cash.

When asked if promoters who have less than the amount cannot book her for shows, she did not give a vivid answer but said: “God has been good”.
She went on to tell Zionfelix, host of the program why she would take around Gh95,000.
The “Getaway” hitmaker explained that she mostly performs live when she mounts the stage and that costs a lot. According to her, she mostly performs with eight or nine-piece band and it is not a joke to mount stage with that number.
Efya believes she has grown as an artist so should work in an extraordinary style to reach the legendary status.
The “Best In Me” singer further stated that she wants to release songs which can last for decades so that generations will listen to it and still feel it is a new song.
The Yaa Asantewaa Girls’ alumnus is set to host her last edition of Girl Talk concert.
She took over from Becca three years ago and has also served three years there. Hence the need for her to bow-out for another selected female artiste, from any part of Africa, not necessarily Ghana to take over.
Scheduled to happen live at the National Theater-Accra on December 27, 2017.
