Contrary to popular opinion that "Ghana is hot," American musician, Slutboy Billy, says he feels the opposite after his experience in the country.

Slutboy, one of the headline artistes for Akwanma 2018 Beach Concert held at Vienna City Beach in Takoradi, has urged the youth of Ghana to desist from complaining about conditions they find themselves in and rather consider them as opportunities to create solutions and make money.

Speaking to journalists, the 19-year-old trap artist from Massachusets, said one of his favourite things about Ghana is the tropical climate which many often describe as hot or harsh.

According to him, the weather is rather cool and ideal for a lot of productive activities such as agriculture, transport and tourism which he claims could change the economic fortunes of the country if harnessed properly.

He said living in Africa has not only given him several creative ideas for his music, but has also inspired his creation of a new unisex fashion line called 'Sluttysex' which he is actively promoting to the world through his travelling as well as social media.

Born Billy Affou to Ghanaian parents in Italy, Slutboy Billy grew up in the United States of America and is currently in Ghana to promote his work.
