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.
