I\u2019ve also had the opportunity of meeting Presidents and top people because of music, and we\u2019re still going so it\u2019s so fulfilling,\u201d George Britton said.<\/p>\n<p>When asked to share the point in his artiste\u2019s career that he finds fulfilment as a manager, he said that in his 13 years of managing musicians, he has only felt satisfaction and not fulfilment with his artiste\u2019s progress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI haven\u2019t been fulfilled before, but a little bit of satisfaction here and there, yes. Of course, when your music becomes a national hit, and people actually appreciate your song, it feels good. Also, artistes have different goals of success, and I\u2019ve been with all these guys, and I know what they term as success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo some, we were very successful because what we were looking for was a national hit that will resonate with fans from Wa to Accra. I think I did that with Akoo Nana with his \u2018Wash and Wear\u2019 song,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>George Britton stated that \u201cin Camidoh\u2019s case, we may have a big song now, but we\u2019re not fulfilled because, just like he dreams, I equally dream. We want to have a wide reach than just Ghana, I think Ghana is small. So, the goal is to be very visible on the African continent, and known on the global market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2018XCLUSIVES\u2019 airs on Joy Prime on Saturdays at 3pm, and on JoyNews at 7:30 pm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/i-dont-remember-the-last-time-i-paid-for-a-flight-or-hotel-artistes-manager-george-britton\/\">Source<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Artiste manager and publicist George Britton says his experience of managing musicians over the years has been nothing but \u201cvery rewarding\u201d.
