“Rap Doesn’t Pay”- Joey B Discredit Rap in Ghana!!!

Ghanaian Rapper, Darryl Paa Kwesi Bannnerman-Martin known in show biz as Joey B has said, that he raps less often because rap doesn’t pay in Ghana.

The trend of music done by the rapper in recent times has seen a switch from his usual rap music to more of singing. 

Speaking on Accra-based Hitz FM, he said, “I was looking at things from a different perspective and I realized that there is more money in singing than rapping  and the ladies they like it too and that also brings more shows so I decided that ahh then why don’t I do this instead.”

The rapper also said that, “…The money comes with growth. As you grow, you need to shoot better videos, take care of yourself, your clothing needs to change, get a better car and others. You can’t just be one of the biggest artistes and just remain where you are…,” he explained and that is why he made the decision to switch to singing.

He cited musicians such as Sarkodie and Kwesi Arthur as rappers who are gradually shifting from rap music to more of singing.
