Ghanaian TikTokers have been coming under fire for their promotion of Nigerian songs over the music of their own country's artists, and this is making waves. With reports that the TikTokers are charging large fees to Ghanaian artists for promotion, many of them are left unable to afford the same level of exposure given to Nigerian songs.
Sista Afia, a popular Ghanaian artist, voiced her concerns, calling it unfair to the Ghanaian music industry. She said that while she appreciates the sound of Nigerian songs, Ghanaian music also has a lot to offer and the amount of money the TikTokers are charging Ghanaian artists is outrageous.
Sista Afia is hoping to create a dialogue about this issue to encourage a fairer treatment for Ghanaian music and the people who create it. It's high time that Ghanaian TikTokers give Ghanaian artists the respect they deserve and allow them to shine in their own right.
