The Lousy 10 stage performers

10. Akatakyie

From “odo e sisime”, the duo takes my money as the most consistent hiplifers around, but they are so inconsistent on stage. Whenever Pharoah is on fire, his brother Culture is dull and whenever Culture is in his element, Pharoah is a waste of time.

9. Tinny

He is one of the best Ga lyricists in the game but in recent times he hardly gets any crowd moving. The crowd just gawks at me him whiles he tortures them with his boring stage performances. His lateness prevented him from opening the act for John Legend and Luciano in their performance in Ghana, but that at least saved the crowd from such boredom.

8. Reggie Rockstone

If you don’t know what we’re discussing, please scroll up and check the title and by the title, Reggie is a lousy stage performer. Oh yes, he is the Grandpapa of hiplife but when it comes to stagecraft, call him the “little kiddie kiddy” of hiplife, especially with DJ Rab not around on the turn table. Sorry Reggie, but makaa maka.

7. 5Five

With their hottest single African gurlz on urban radio and a beautiful music video, you’d expect these Adabraka lads to wow you with their performance, but they are a disappointment most times. Guys need to perfect their act.

6. A Pluz

I don’t get agitated when Apluz is unable to have a good performance on stage because of his kind of music and instrumentation and I don’t see how it could move even a bunch of kindergarten kids. He should not sway from his kind of music but he can do something about his stage manners, at least improvise with his performance.

5. OD4

He featured talented lady rapper Ras Nigga on his two hit songs and the lady lyrically outshines him on wax, and on stage she still outshines him. Without Ras Nigga on stage, OD4 looks mundane. Maybe next time, he shouldn’t feature her in his songs then he will not be compelled to feature her on his stage performances.And then he may learn to have a good show without Ras Nigga

4. Ebo’o

Yes, he is Bola Ray’s brother so he gets to perform every now and then but the guy virtually puts you to sleep with his kind of performances on stage. I won’t comment on the guy he usually brings to the stage because I don’t know whether to classify him as a dancer or backing vocalist. Come on Ebo’o, do your brother proud and add some bite to your stagecraft.

3. Kofi B

He may be branded as one with the smoothest voices in Ghana, but his performances on stage are not that smooth. He has got such a quirky way of stagecraft, you feel like throwing him off stage because he can’t even put you to sleep.

2. Daasebre Gyamena.

It’s good to have him back but his stagecraft is a disaster. Probably, jail time took away a lot from the man, but he wasn’t even a great performer before. He is an effigy of himself whenever he performs on stage.

1. Ofori Amponsah

Ladies and Gentlemen, let’s raise our glasses to the lousiest stage performer: Ofori Amponsah. The record award-winning artist would leave you aghast with that kind of performance. At a Peace FM organized show, “The Search”, his performance was so woeful, people did run for cover and at the Ghana Music Awards show, he was virtually booed off stage. He still can have the awards, but his stagecraft really sucks.
