He intimated that, he expected at least five artistes from Ghana to have made it to the BET/GRAMMY nominations this year. He attributed the artistes’ inability to bag nominations at the top level to the self destruction that exist among artistes and industry players.
His call comes at a time when dancehall artiste Shatta Wale is in the news for his ‘Already’ music video with American superstar Beyonce which most industry players are trying to downplay its impact.
