Following this statement,  music lovers all over social media have really trolled him.<\/p>\n<p>For further clarification, Edem spoke to Happy FM detailing that \u201cthere is a perception about the minority language. People play with it and take advantage of it when you are doing music.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Edem, who has featured established acts like Tinny, Kwaw Kesse, Sarkodie, Obour, Asem, K. k. Fosu, Tuba, Samini, Jayso, Trigmatic, El and Gemini added that, \u201cI will speak on such issues. How can people just say we can do without your region even in business meeting? I will speak on such issues fearlessly; I will speak on it without being afraid until I die because that is the truth,\u201d Edem told Happy FM.<\/p>\n<p>Born Denning Edem Hotor, Ayigbe Edem clarified further,  \u201cI\u2019m not saying this to disrespect any body. there is no one plying his trade who has been more consistent than me because I have done music for nine years back-to-back. I have never got to a point in my carrier where I had to release a song and it didn\u2019t gain the mileage it had to because I have come to understand how to do the business,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to a question on why is he saying he is underrated if no one has been more consistent than him, the \u2018Koene\u2019 hit maker cited, \u201cwhen I speak I am not speaking for only myself. I am speaking because I have the voice and I have to open dialogue on issues. How many times do you hear Wiyaala\u2019s songs on radio? How many times do you hear Sherifa back-to-back on radio? How many times do you hear an Nzema rapper back-to-back on radio,\u201d the Award winning artiste quizzed.<\/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 Monday, 13 November 2017 Source: Nii Ogbamey Tetteh 2017-11-13 Edem Ghanaian recording artiste and entertainer Edem has said his music is not appreciated on the level it\u2019s supposed to be appreciated.
