Having the money to not only push your ideas but to promote your ideas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think you always have to get very creative with funding and how you find funding. Especially starting off in Ghana and as a Ghanaian creative and thinking about how to attack your territory but then attack the rest of the world at the same time and having the support to do that can be very hard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cComing straight from here I\u2019ve experienced that but I think with time and as you start to learn the ins and outs you find your support that believes in you and what you want to do\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSecond challenge is being a female and also making authentic music. I think people find it very hard to take you seriously. I remember when I first started a lot of radio wouldn\u2019t play me, as I told you AJ was one of my only and early supporters. Aside from TV3 and if I\u2019m forgetting anyone I\u2019m sorry but I just can\u2019t remember anyone that\u2019s away willing and open to be like ah cool,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>She also spoke about people not paying her when she was starting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople weren\u2019t even trying to pay me at all when I first started. A platform offered me MTN credit and that very same platform a few years later had to come back and pay me like crazy money just to do a song\u201d Amaarae said.<\/p>\n<p>The songwriter was featured in the much-anticipated sequel of Black Panther, Wakanda Forever and is currently promoting her new song \u2018Reckless &amp; Sweet\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>SOURCE: 3News.Com<\/p>\n<p><!-- relpost-thumb-wrapper --><!-- close relpost-thumb-wrapper --><\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-block sd-like jetpack-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded\" id=\"like-post-wrapper-186753398-4210-642dfb4b79e0a\" data-src=\"https:\/\/widgets.wp.com\/likes\/#blog_id=186753398&amp;post_id=4210&amp;origin=www.onemuzikgh.com&amp;obj_id=186753398-4210-642dfb4b79e0a\" data-name=\"like-post-frame-186753398-4210-642dfb4b79e0a\" data-title=\"Like or Reblog\">\n<h3 class=\"sd-title\">Like this:<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"button\"><span>Like<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"loading\">Loading&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"sd-text-color\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div class=\"banner\">\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1680759836_475_onemuzikgh_whatsapp.jpg\" alt=\"Banner Image\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1680759836_827_onemuzikgh_whatsapp.jpg\"  class=\" jetpack-lazy-image\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" data-lazy-fallback=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1680759836_475_onemuzikgh_whatsapp.jpg\" alt=\"Banner Image\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 --><\/p>\n<p> <!-- A generated by theme --> <\/p>\n<p> <!-- end A --> <\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amaarae The silky voice singer Amaarae has revealed that the toughest moment as a female artiste is funding.
