The creativity in the industry is going down. If we are creative, the up and coming ones will follow our steps. It is a creative industry and we need to be more creative. Refurbishing old songs is not the best. Let\u2019s go back to our root, work hard and be creative enough.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the issue, Franky5 who was one of the panelists averred that it was unfair for a musician who has been conspicuously missing in action to make such assertions.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that the likes of Nacee, Akese Brempong have great compositions and should be given the needed recognition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s been put on relegation for some time so if she is making any argument on current subject, I\u2019d expect that she should have a record that can stand the test of time and can be compared to what is being done now,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Unhappy about the submission, Phillipa Baafi who had been raised on phone to throw more light on her assertion responded, telling Franky5 to research before he speaks.<\/p>\n<p>She argued that she had released songs this year and embarked on a health campaign as part of her social responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom 2007, I have been releasing and by the grace of God, my albums are doing well. Currently, we are promoting \u2018Mede Bema Wo\u2019. So if he says I\u2019m relegated, I think it\u2019s not fair. It means you\u2019re not even up to date,\u201d she fumed.<\/p>\n<p>A reply from Franky5 somewhat wrote Phillipa Baafi off, Abrantepa.com observed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m the host of \u2018This Is Gospel\u2019 on Hitz FM and my show happens to be one of the most listened to shows in Accra. And I have not put you on my chat yet so it means you need to work harder,\u201d he pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I don\u2019t know you. Listen, that is how the world is. I don\u2019t know you, I don\u2019t know anything about you. What about that? You\u2019re now telling me you\u2019re a host of a show; I don\u2019t know you,\u201d Phillipa Baafi rebutted.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: -1 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 Thursday, 21 December 2017 Source: www.abrantepa.com 2017-12-21 Gospel musician, Philippa Baafi A heated argument ensued between gospel musician, Philippa Baafi and Hitz FM presenter, Frank Kwabena Owusu (Franky5) last Friday following a comment the latter passed on the former during the Showbiz Review segment of the Daybreak Hitz show, hosted by Andy Dosty.
