It Doesn’t Make Sense To Compare Ghana And Nigeria’ Music Records – Anne-Sophie Avé
Former French ambassador to Ghana, Anne-Sophie Ave is not happy about the continuous comparison of Ghanaian and Nigerian artistes in recent times.
In an interview with Andy Dosty on Daybreak Hitz and reported by myjoyonline.com, the diplomat, who has been an active promoter of Ghanaian music asked critics to be objective and have a view that Nigeria is opening the doors of Africa through afrobeats.
“The comparison doesn’t make sense, yes, it is afrobeats, but let’s look at it like Nigeria is paving the way, is opening the doors for the entire African continent,” she said.
Anne also noted that the size of the Nigerian population has been an advantage and continues to play a major factor in giving them a wider reach than their Ghanaian compatriots.
“250 million Nigerians and you know when the music is good numbers don’t matter. It helps because when you come to a country that has 250 million citizens it is easy to hit a million and therefore make money and go out there,” she stated.
The French Diplomat also encouraged Ghanaian artistes to be focus on promoting themselves across the continent and globally and not limit their potentials.
“Is just about promotion, is about being pushed in the media not only in Ghana, it’s great to use the diasporas everywhere in the world, because they are a point of entry into the country, but you have to go beyond that, and conquer the entire country,” Anne added.
