That is the hard truth. If we will be truthful, we can\u2019t depend on the one time singles and all that. The musicians now don\u2019t do albums, reason more artistes are packed on bills.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s good for the event organizer. If they were all doing albums they will have more time to perform and that will be an advantage to the artiste\u2026\u201d he said on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM with Andy Dosty.<\/p>\n<p>He used songs such as Patapaa&#8217;s &#8216;One Corner&#8217; and Captain Planet&#8217;s latest single \u2018Obi Agye Obi Girl\u2019 as examples.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlbums give you the privilege to perform more songs to your fans. Where is \u2018One Corner\u2019? Now it\u2019s \u2018Obi Agye Obi girl\u2019. We need to put songs that will make us last as artistes to keep the industry going. We need to work harder\u2026\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Kwabena Kwabena is currently promoting his new album, \u2018Ahyesi\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 65 updated by: 49 --><\/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>Music of Friday, 10 November 2017 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2017-11-10 Highlife artiste, Kwabena Kwabena George Kwabena Adu, popularly known in the showbiz circles as Kwabena Kwabena, says artistes in the country are not producing and promoting \u2018genuine\u2019 Ghanaian music.
