The CEO of Inside LLC, an event promotion company who has championed the promotion of major musicians in Ghana has stated in a latest interview that, his relationship with Ghanaian Artists has been Soar.
Speaking on HitzFm on Tuesday, June 6th 2023, the astute event Promoter has cited why he chosed Asaaka Boys to headlined his Ghana to the World event in UK instead of KiDi. According to him, KiDi and his management switched on him for a Nigerian Promoter.
“One of the artists I booked for an event in the US was KiDi. They were happy & Albert approached me to tell me how excited they were. Long story short, I tried booking them for another event only for them to cancel on me after we’ve completed all the terms. That’s how come I got Asakaa Boys to headline Ghana to the World in New York. KiDi’s team told me they had another event on the same day but it never happened. KiDi went ahead to do a show with a Nigerian promoter abroad” he said.
He maintained that his relationship with these Ghanaian Artists has been 60% Soar and 40% cool stating that “We lack so much support from the Ghanaian community and the artists themselves. Some of the artists we book for events only post the flyers the day the event is being hosted. How does that help the event organizer/promoter?”.
Nana Boateng indicated that some Ghanaian musicians (even those who haven’t traveled before) will strong-armed him to get them their visas before they post flyers of the events.
“Some artists were strong-arming me to get them their visas before they post flyers of the events they are booked to perform at —and these artists have not travelled before yet you see their posture” he added.
