KWAW KESSE (LEFT) & APPIETUS (RIGHT) |
The hip hop song and
artiste of the year Kwaw Kesse of Mad Time entertainment has disclosed that he,
together with his fellow Ghanaian musicians perform on stage while their Nigerians
or foreign artistes invited come and sing during events in the country.
Kaw kesse the king of
the streets said this in an interview and mentioned: ‘we are the artistes that
fans want to see, we give them their monies worth but every time organizers
want to pay us very small as compared to the foreign artistes they bring (no
disrespect to any artiste).
The rapper said this
when he was asked about his earlier charges for his performance to the
organizers of the music awards which was GHC 10, 000.
He maintained: ‘the
dynamics of stage craft is what makes Kwaw unique so yes I still stand by word
if you want Kaw Kesse to perform pay GHC10, 000 after all some Nigerians come
an take more than that but at the end of the event Kaw Kesse and his fellow
musicians in GH rule the show, so stop cheating us.
Kwaw also noted: ‘I am
urging all my colleagues to support me, it is about time we speed up and take
what belongs to us, if any musician decides to do a show for free that is cool
for sometimes we all perform for free to support the industry but when it is an
international show with international recognition than we should charge like
those coming, period.
The very strong words
of the man insane Kwaw kesse and we think is a step in the right direction
towards a successful industry.
