I don't even know where to begin but in my opinion I think our own Kumasi guys are the killers of their own music industry. I don't think we should blame Accra we should blame our own selves from bloggers, engineers and to artistes themselves. We at Siano Streets have received our portion, insults upon insults and some even telling others to boycott our posts. We almost deleted our account and put a halt to all the plans we have for our Kumasi in the pipeline but then again we thought about it and we decided to continue since there are other good artists out here who will really need our little hype.
First of all as an artiste if you don't want people to talk about you liking alcohol then why do you put them in your facebook posts? Everything we post is only based on what you artistes put on your facebook walls, in other words you give us the news. Let that rest!
KWEYSI SWAT The Punchline Singer coincidentally feels the same way. As usual we were silently browsing through our Kumasi artistes' profiles and walls to see if any of them have released any song yet and if there would be anything to put up to sell our artistes to the world, suddenly I came across a post by The Punchline singer and I think the guy has really been in Kumasi and have seen what is actually going on.
As a Takoradi boy doing music in our dear city, he talks about how he was discriminated and sidelined because he wasn't friends with some of the top bloggers in the city. He says these bloggers will only write about their friends, sometimes their music sucks so bad but since they are friends he will rather write about them and sideline the others who are working so hard.
He says "The only time I see an artiste from your city's name boldly written on a flyer is when it is a pool party or a house party". He says the radio station will rather use the local artistes for live rap shows just to boost their line ups.There is so much this guy addressed you can check them from the screenshots below.
