Afrobeat sensation Kuami Eugene, born Eugene Kwame Marfo, has shared his insights on what it would take for a Ghanaian artist to win the prestigious Grammy Awards.
Speaking in a recent interview, the Monica’ hitmaker emphasized that a combination of hard work, connections, and a dash of good fortune would be required for a Ghanaian artist to take home the coveted award.
“When we talk about the Grammys we ought to know that we are now taking baby steps and even in Ghana promoting a song demands an artiste to pay for promo.
“And how do you expect us to move from here straight to the Grammys when people demand payment before our songs are played on the airwaves,” he asked in a one-on-one interview.
“When we start these Grammys conversations it will take so much for a Ghanaian to win at the Grammys because you have to gather the masses.
“And looking at our population we are about four times or more the size of Nigeria and so it will take grace, so much work and connections to win the Grammys,” he added.
