Ghanaian-British artiste, Mensa Ansah, better known as M3NSA said Nigerian musicians create superior music compared to their Ghanaian counterparts, adding that only a few artistes are taking their productions more seriously, and that it was not enough
Known for his recognisable sound and instinctual storytelling, the singer, rapper, composer, producer and filmmaker stated this on Ghana’s primetime TV, Joy News.
He attributed the comparison to the international acclaim enjoyed by Nigerian songs. This admission coincides with a campaign urging a minimum of 70 per cent airplay for local songs on Ghanaian media and at events.
His words, “Definitely Nigerians are making better music and Ghanaians. I have to say this… They are definitely making better quality music because they are investing more money and more time.
“There’s more of an understanding for the importance of arts, but also in an entrepreneurial way. So it’s not waiting for the government to do something but it’s just like support, people investing a lot of money into creating world-class music.”
