    This is the problem we have as a nation.We never cherish our own and project them into limelight.The notion that anything Western is good is trash.

  • Ms B 11 years ago

    I as a westerner am in total agreement why are you continually looking outside. Please develop the talent in your own country.

    chris invitation is a total business to the organisers,hence, KSM must know that,allocated gate fees can equally earn the organiser more than the one million invested.i therefore object KSM disagreement to this concept.

  • anokwale 11 years ago

    At the end of the day, although I philosophically agree with promotion of local artists, the global popular music scene has been structured in a way where American artist will have a big draw. Ghanaian youth will pay the gat ...
