Rapper Tinny strongly believes that the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) can only succeed if management of the union is given to foreigners.<\/p>\n
According to him, foreigners have the requisite qualities and qualifications to manage the union to the benefit of musicians.<\/p>\n
For some time now, several industry persons, including musicians have called for a change in the leadership of MUSIGA with many accusing current president, Bice Osei Kuffour (Obour) of failing the union.<\/p>\n
There have also been calls from musicians, including Sarkodie, Shatta Wale and Paedae of R2Bees, for D-Black to become the president of MUSIG).<\/p>\n
They believe that he will be a better president than Obour whom they alleged is not seeking the welfare musicians.<\/p>\n
D-Black told Doreen Andoh in an interview on Cosmopolitan Mix on Joy FM that:\u00a0\u201cThe body that is responsible for welfare of musicians [is] not doing [its] job properly. I feel like they\u2019ve made some effort but I don\u2019t think it\u2019s enough at all. Very little attention has been paid to the welfare of musicians.\u201d<\/p>\n
Speaking\u00a0on the same platform Friday,\u00a0Tinny, otherwise known as Nii Addo Quaynor, revealed that he does not follow the activities of MUSIGA because of the current management. \u201cI just don\u2019t want to follow MUSIGA.\u201d<\/p>\n
To him, MUSIGA will be better if it is treated like the senior national team, the Black Stars where foreign coaches are mostly employed to manage it.<\/p>\n
\u201cGhana music, I see it like Black Stars. We take huge amount of money to pay a coach from outside Ghana to come and manage Black Stars. We should fire all the guys at MUSIGA,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The \u2018Makola Kwakwe\u2019 hit rapper added that, \u201cI think we should have people from outside Ghana to come and manage MUSIGA because I believe that their way of thinking is different”.<\/p>\n
“[For] Ghanaians what we think about is the tummy first.\u201d<\/p>\n
Asked if there is no body in the music industry competent enough to manage MUSIGA, Tinny said \u201cI don\u2019t know anybody for now,\u201d neither is he interested in managing the musicians\u2019 union.\u00a0<\/p>\n
