Michael Blankson Responds To Critics; My Goal Is To Introduce Ghanaian Artistes To The World

Ghanaian-American comedian Michael Blankson has responds to critics about a comment he made during a conversation on the “Drink Champions” podcast which sparked reactions on social media.

Micheal posted a video on his social media platform recently about the signing of rapper Gambo under his record Lebel Blackson Management. During the conversation on sighted by Tru News Report Michael Blackson made a statement that, unlike Nigeria, Ghana does not have more than four major musical stars, which didn’t sit well with Fuse ODG.

“Nigeria has all the artistes, I mean I could name ten (10) niggas from Nigeria that are stars like Davido, Wizkid Burnaboy, Tecno, Kizz Daniel, etc. is like the New York of music in Africa, and Ghana, on the other hand, is becoming like the Dubai of Africa I can only count about four people from Ghana like Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, Sarkodie, and Black Sherif. I want to make Gambo the fifth star and that’s why I signed him” he said.

Fuse ODG said it was unfortunate that Michael Blackson made those statements on the show since he had introduced Blackson to several Ghanaian singers.

Responding to Fuse ODG post Michael said he knows there are a lot of artistes in Ghana but there are only four that are mainstream.

“Hey Modasucka my Broda I know we have a 100 artist in Ghana but I meant there are about 4 that are mainstream, let’s all work together and make 10 to 20 of them worldwide like Nigeria has. Us Ghanaians are too talented to be hidden. My goal is to introduce them to the world” he said.
