\"Kumawood Kumawood actor, Kwadwo Nkansah ‘LilWin’<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Actor cum musician, Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as LilWin, has expressed displeasure over not being recognised as a serious musician despite his significant contributions to the Ghanaian music scene. <\/p>\n

In an interview with Amansan Krakye, LilWin revealed that although he has produced numerous hit songs over the years, he is still not regarded as a serious musician. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not considered a serious musician despite the number of hits I\u2019ve released since I started my music career. I\u2019ve dropped hit after hit, but I\u2019m still not given the respect I deserve. <\/p>\n

\u201cSome new musicians release just one or two hit songs, and they\u2019re immediately awarded. But I\u2019ve produced countless hits like Ladder, Mama Boss Papa, Anointing, and Woto Mpo Ni, and yet I\u2019ve never been awarded at the TGMA (Ghana Music Awards),\u201d he stated. <\/p>\n

The actor went on to explain that in other countries, musicians are duly recognised regardless of their genre or background. <\/p>\n

\u201cA white man doesn\u2019t care whether you\u2019re a musician or not. If you release a hit song, they\u2019ll reward you,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

However, according to LilWin, the situation in Ghana is different. He pointed out that in Ghana, artistes often have to pay money in order to be given awards. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut to pay for an award? I\u2019d rather use that money to buy Kokonte,\u201d he added, expressing disappointment with the practice. <\/p>\n

LilWin also bemoaned the practice of newer artists being favoured over seasoned musicians in the country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
