Ghanaian sensation, Kuami Eugene, sheds light on the cutthroat nature of the music industry in Ghana, revealing that behind the scenes, it’s far from the glamorous image often portrayed to the public.
In a candid statement, Eugene emphasized that artists are engaged in a relentless pursuit of success, sometimes resorting to extreme measures, be they positive or negative, to climb the ladder of recognition.
“The music industry no be how the fans dey see am. It’s a bloody game now. People will do anything, pull any string for validation. Ay3 tan!!!!!” he shared on X, sparking discussions among fans and industry insiders alike.
Eugene’s remarks coincided with the aftermath of the 25th Telecel Ghana Music Awards, fueling speculation that his comments might be tied to the outcome, particularly Stonebwoy’s clinching of the coveted Artiste of the Year title.
However, amidst the controversy, Eugene had cause for celebration, bagging two awards himself at the 2024 TGMA: Best Highlife Artiste and Best Music Video of the Year, underscoring his talent and contribution to the industry.
The 2024 TGMA, held at the Grand Arena of the Accra International Conference Centre, served as a platform to honor musicians for their outstanding contributions over the preceding year, showcasing both the achievements and challenges within Ghana’s vibrant music scene.
