We failed to coach young musicians

For an industry whose survival is presumed to hinge on younger artistes, Highlife artiste Gyedu Blay Ambolley believes that veterans have failed in their mandate of coaching the younger ones to have a true understanding of the craft.
According to him, even though some older artistes have taken up the task, individual efforts have not been sufficient in imparting music knowledge to younger generations.
Speaking with Graphic Showbiz on the sidelines of the inauguration of Highlife is Alive fan club in Accra on Monday, April 5, Ambolley described the matter as a missing link preventing older artistes from guiding contemporary acts.

Ras Caleb Appiah-Levi
It is becoming clear that the problems of the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA) will not end anytime soon if something is not done to resolve them.
A lawsuit by a presidential aspirant Ras Caleb Appiah-Levi against the union’s election had slowed things down. He had gone to court to get an injunction placed on the election because according to him, things were done contrary to its constitution.
Although an Accra High Court dismissed his suit on March 15, Ras Caleb says he will still fight to see things done right and asked those blaming him to rather congratulate him on bringing out the ills at MUSIGA.
