Just like Azonto, Ladder and One Corner, Woti Ate will add up to the trends in the industry and I think that should be encouraged,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2012, Galaxy, made up of Kwesi Davis and Bra Chiky have stayed relevant in the industry with songs like Gborgborvor, Ye Mame, Tweaa, Bokoboko, My Woman among others.<\/p>\n<p>However, their kind of music has been criticised by some veterans in the industry. Just last week, Afrobeats artiste, Gyedu Blay Ambolley, criticised young artistes for the poor quality of their songs which quickly fade away.<\/p>\n<p>However, Kwasi Davis disagreed with him saying the growth of the industry demands certain \u2018rough\u2019 tactics to survive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a new generation and even the population of Ghana has increased in the last three decades. There are new talents coming out with good music every day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c The spread of radio stations has even added to the plight of musicians because you need more money to promote your music.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo if you identify a trend that people easily accept, why don\u2019t you take advantage of it and give the people what they want?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that people have different tastes which should be satisfied. \u201cThere are people who are hyper and love to jam to such commercial songs. There are others who love to listen to songs about broken heart. That is the diversity in music audiences,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>For now it remains to be seen if Woti Ate has enough staying power to take over from One Corner.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 31 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Tuesday, 31 October 2017 Source: Graphic.com.gh 2017-10-31 Gallaxy It seems there is an unspoken competition among our musicians as to who can come up with the most outrageous songs and dances to capture the public\u2019s attention.
