The dancehall is really hurting us for real and we still not realising it. We shud go back to our Hip Life and High Life and promote it again and see wat happens if we don’t take over or compete heavily with Afrobeat and Amapiano..
I'm glad that despite a country of over 200 million, your only source of joy and amusement for the week came from a "small country" called Ghana. We're happy to save you and the world with one laughter after another :D
@@Romeo-Kwame people like you and your obsession with Nigeria's numbers. Whether 200 million o, or unicellular organisms o, people like me will concern ourselves with nitwits like you and 3Music who whine and argue endlessly and would rather peg us as your enemies. You get what you ask for. I know you must be forcing yourself to laugh when you are actually crying inside. Typical pretense of people like you. Cry more. One final thing: Last time I checked, your “small” country is older than Nigeria. Act like it!
@Romeo-Kwame lol😂imagine a country that Lagos is richer than....our music industry is booming...pls there is nothing in gh...this is socal media...same country that talks about us
No matter what, you can’t copy another country’s genre entirely. That’s what is frowned upon by everyone as not authentic. You have to add something original to you to it. Even Highlife and Pop is like that. If we can add Afro to Dancehall it becomes our thing cuz even Jamaicans can’t do that. - if you try to copy verbatim and compete based on who can copy best, you are fighting a losing battle. 🙏🏼
Dancehall was created when the slaves that were brought to the Jamaica after the slavery was abolished, were not allowed in the disco (club) .so the blacks created a play ground where they play drums and dance to African rythms....and called it dancehall .... Reggae) means reduce in Hausa ...n it was developed when they use t o sings songs of sorrows remembering where they came from...so they say let's reggae our thoughts by singing....❤❤❤
Jay Foley is a shame. Very unprofessional making baseless claims. Interrupting Cyril anyhow. You could not even play Stonebwoy and Spice’s song when they were in your studio. You are here talking gibberish
Mr Jay if we want a pool of Artist in one particular genre, then let’s throw the same light to the emerging ones as been given to the A list artist whether it’s in the domain of the Traditional media or the New media and Ghana will be bless with more Pool of talent hence as a potential consumption to the foreign exchange market so far as music is concerned.
Mumu Jay Foley...ur hate for Nigeria will swallow you soon. Imagine the rubbish u are spitting out...and u quote"South Africans owns Amapiano,but Afrobeat was suppose to be Us Africans,but our brothers have taken it and own it"...See cheap dye wey him rub for hair... Ozuor!.
Please that’s not the sentiment of the general Ghanaian. It’s just a couple of too known people who think they can control the industry. That guy is very empty headed.
There are 195 countries in the world today. However, not every country has a visible representation and musical identity on the global music scene. Only a handful of countries have representation. Twenty music genres have cross-cultural appeal globally. - Of these twenty, four genres are from Africa with global appeal: Afrobeats, Highlife, Mbalax, and Amapiano. - North America has Hip-Hop, Blues, Jazz, Rock and Roll, and Reggae (both Reggaeton and Soca are classified as fusion). - Europe has Classical Music, Flamenco, Electronic Dance Music, and Fado. - South America has Samba, Tango, and Bossa Nova. - Asia has K-Pop, Bollywood Music, and Enka. - Oceania has Indigenous music. Of the four global music genres of African origin, almost 25%-50% either started in Ghana or have some form of direct influence in their origins. My question to Ghana is: what is really driving this need for recognition to have been the originator of new music genres? As big as the USA is, it's been content to have originated four music genres! This clearly shows how difficult it is to either create a new genre of music or be attributed to having a unique national sound. Maybe the obsession of Ghanaian music aficionados with the need for the country to have a "unique sound" is a misplaced priority...
Cyril is miles apart smarter and realistic than Foley! The only question is, if Nigerians didn’t succeed with Afrobeats, would Ghanaians be having this monotonous repeated conversations? You just seat and spill gibberish, 90% of Jamaicans are originally Ghanaian, such nonsense in 2024!😃🤣
Panel is clueless. No one seems to understand what Jay is saying. When Camidoh’s, and Olive the boy came out with their song, Africans thought they were Nigerians, because the sound (Afrobeat) is linked to Nigeria. If you don’t know Stonebwoy and you hear his song, you will think he is Jamaican, because Dancehall is linked to Jamaica, even Stonebwoy said people think he is Jamaican. If a Togolese rapper raps with an American accent, people will think he is American, because rap is linked to America. What genre does Ghana have, that when you first hear it, you will think the artist is from Ghana? The answer is none. That’s the message Jay is trying to convey, that Ghana has no identity. Most of the export genres from Ghana are linked to other countries. That’s what he is trying to say.
I think C real is making a lot of sense because that manager who said reggae or dancehall is the problem to in the industry just to have that right moral to even make such accusations, n yh is accusations because I feel like he is only trying to channel the masses attention to stop listen to dancehall and reggae music in Ghana but Afro music just because he feel like his artist is doing, meanwhile this afro music also do not belong to us, and funny enough this genre he claims is our problem is also what is winning for the country!? To be fair stonebwoy is the only raga or dancehall artist from Africa that won BET also shatta is the only raga or dancehall artist that got featured on Beyoncé music…… so my question is where was the afrobeats musicians when Beyoncé and BET was looking for musicians to collaborate with!! I think Jay needs not to even entertain any dumb manager on his show because is just selfish interest talks that man came to spill not to say anything sense for the industry…if he thinks he is making sense then he should bring back the adowa or azonto!! 😅
Hahaa before beyonce featured shatta wale, Afrobeat artist started featuring many artist from Europe. Check Beyonce album she featured Nigeria Afrobeat artist like 3 or 4 I think. Afrobeat will remain king or Africa sound, like it or hate it lol😂😂😂
@ well Mr Man I think you have to go and come back again with your submission because no body is down playing afrobeat also those artist Beyoncé featured most was from Nigeria like you are saying but here in Ghana it was only dancehall and reggae artist, so again where is the lie about dancehall and reggae winning it big for the country? I think you have to understand more abt what is being discussed……
@@ChristableDarstop twisting your words Mr man you clearly said “ we’re was Afro beats Artist when Beyoncé we as looking for feature . Mean while she had like 6 nigeria Artist on that album and nobody is making noise about it . All the artist have gone up and done great things individually. But your Ghanaian that is the only glory you have because you keep mentioning it year in year out. Please have several seats 😂 till date , Nigeria Artist have been featured on several project by the western music, from cold play, ed Sheeran , Madonna , future, drake, Chris brown etc. not like your stoneboy that does the chasing and feature .
That’s the main problem with Ghanaian youth these days - mumu people. Go do your research, do you think it was only shatta wale Beyonce worked with? She worked with Whizkid and other Nigerian artists..😂😂…that’s Ghana’s problem - the Ghana pundits with lies and fake hype, and the mumu Ghanaians believing it. Just like in football, Ghanaian pundits lying to its people. Nigeria recently beat Ghana in the U20 championship. Ghanaian sports analysts were on their platforms saying Ghana is the best, and that Nigeria can’t beat Ghana. First of all, Nigeria beat Ghana in the same competition two years ago. If you do your research, Nigeria and Ghana have played 7 times in this competition with Nigeria beating Ghana 4 times, and Ghana beating Nigeria twice, with one draw. But Ghanaian pundits will come on platforms and lie and say “Ghana is always beating Nigeria” it’s the lies with Ghanaians believing it.
Look at the thinking of the man speaking for dance hall. He said because Jamaicans are saying they are Ghanaians so Dance Hall is Ghanaian, lazy set of ideas. You can't push for your own but claim others. Very lazy even in thinking
Hmm very bad ,people come and sit there and give wrong information …reggae gave birth to hip hop Reggae is a song sung by the slaves who fled from Africa . Too much false info
I didn't know there are real people like C Real in Ghana. God he said it real God.
Cyril is on point with his first submission

Jay Foley is right. There is no identity. All these genres Ghana are imitating are from other countries.
Guitar,piano, trumpet is not from Ghana.... what is genre
