Ghanaian music industry is hard, one day you are here, the next day, it’s almost as if nobody knows your name, all the fans, the cheers and praises stop as if they never happened. It’s not just in music but life in general.

The Ghanaian music scene is not something one can rely on, besides the fact that most of them make less money in the business, only a few are able to stay relevant for long time. Even the ones who are able to stay for long have their down times. We’ve seen so many Ghanaian musicians come and go, truth is, some of them were very huge when it was their time.

Today, and after a few hit songs, they seems to have lost the battle, they would stage a show for as less as ¢1,000, that is if they are lucky. Here are a few Ghanaian musicians who may still be playing shows in the eyes of people but for chicken change or coins.

STAY JAY

Stay Jay had few hit songs, Shashee Wowo, Prepaid Girl, Format Gurl but that was just it, in that year, he mounted lots of stages and even performed abroad but his fame and soaring career was short-lived. We see all the big shows pass him by.
