Sarkodie, Shatta Wale, Other Ghanaian Artistes Miss Out On Most Popular Musicians In West Africa List
Nigeria’s dominance in the realms of music and movies over Ghana has once again been showcased on Congo to Global.
This platform serves as a celebration and promotion of Pan-African history and African pop culture.
The recently released lists clearly demonstrate Nigeria’s overwhelming presence in various regions of West Africa, Europe, America, and beyond.
Among the Nigerian artists, Davido, Burna Boy, and Wizkid stand out as exceptionally popular figures in America, Europe, and other parts of the world, surpassing their African counterparts.
Surprisingly, Ghanaian artistes like Sarkodie, Stonebwoy, and Shatta Wale did not make it onto the rankings.
This stark contrast suggests that they lack international recognition when compared to their Nigerian counterparts, whose names we have previously mentioned.
