Gospel musician Empress Gifty has expressed worry about the lack of investment in the music industry in Ghana, particularly the gospel sector.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According by her, there are no record labels in Ghana set out to take care of the totality or artistes\u2019 funding, production, promotion, marketing and publicity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She told Kwame Dadzie on A-Z<\/strong> on Joy FM that a lot of gospel musicians are struggling to make it because of this.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t have record labels [in Ghana], do we\u00a0\u00a0have them?\u201d she asked adding that every\u00a0\u00a0gospel artiste is doing his or her own thing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are all doing their own thing. So we get so stressed because you are doing something and it everything is coming out of your pocket. It is very dangerous and frustrating,\u201d Empress stated.<\/p>\n

She was, however, hopeful that very soon the situation will change for the better.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cMy wish is that a year from now we will get investors to put their money and connection,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n

Empress Gifty has released a new song titled \u2018Awieyepa\u2019 which was produced by Shadrack Yawson, written and composed by Ewura Abena.\u00a0<\/p>\n
