UK based Ghanaian duo Reggie ‘N’ Bollie have bemoaned lack of appreciation for people in Ghana’s creative industry.
In a yet to be aired episode of JoyPrime’s E With Beck, the duo said this development accounts for the poor performance of Ghana’s creative industry on the world stage.
“In our country, people cannot do creative stuff and be paid well enough to be okay. Then we talk about Payola being an issue, Payola will always be in Ghana because if the DJ is not getting well paid, he won’t play your song for free” Reggie said.
The Ghanaian music duo consisting of Reggie Zippy and Bollie Babyface gained worldwide recognition after finishing as runners-up on the twelfth series of The X Factor UK in 2015.
