Ghanaian Afrobeats and R&B artiste, KiDi, says the country does not have a proper music industry, citing the absence of structures to support the growth of musicians.
Speaking on Daybreak Hitz with Doreen Avio and Kwame Dadzie, the hitmaker lamented the lack of systems that should anchor the industry beyond the individual efforts of artistes.
In his view, although creatives are working hard, the absence of a structured system makes the sector unattractive to investors.
“Every musician in Ghana has to fend for themself and strive their way with individual resources due to the lack of a structure,” he said.
Explaining the kind of structures he referred to, KiDi pointed to poor royalty collection and weak industry support mechanisms.
He further argued that the struggling music space often turns around to criticise artistes unfairly, even though the ecosystem that should support them has failed to function as an industry.
