One of Ghana’s prolific music producers, Quick Action, has shared some of his woes after plying his trade in the music industry for twenty-three years.
According to him, he has not made enough gains in spite of producing musical works for most of the top musicians in Ghana.
Speaking to Kwame Dadzie on Joy FM’s ‘Showbiz A-Z’, he said some of these issues make him feel bullied by the system.
Asked if he has won any award before, he said “no, but it hurts me because if I check myself from where I am coming from and what I’ve been through, with my educational background, and by the Grace of God, by the kind of achievements and impact I have made in the lives of some great people, it hurts me that I don’t even have anything to show.”
He said even though he doesn’t regret getting into music, he has regrets losing focus along the way.
Quick Action noted that he did most of his works through passion and didn’t bother to think about the monetary aspect.
He further noted that naturally he is a giver; he would always want to see people progress through his help.
Born Joseph Appiah, Quick Action has produced works for artistes such as Stonebwoy, Prince Bright, TiC, Samini, Kwadee, Kwaw Kese, Afro Moses, Cindy Thompson, Jane and Bernice, Shasha Marley, among others.
He is currently into gospel music, preparing to release a gospel album soon.
Quick Action who could not pursue higher education due to dyslexia, has been organising programmes to educate people about the disorder.
Over the years, he has been visiting orphanages and schools, engaging children with learning disabilities and finding a way of getting solutions.
His project DYSLEXIA IS NOT DISABILITY was launched on BBC's 'Focus on Africa' last year.
In 2023, he visited the United Kingdom for a cultural exchange programme at the King’s College London.
The programme allowed Quick Action to study alongside local students while experiencing a different education system and style of teaching, sharing his expertise and knowledge, and making memories that will last a lifetime.
He also participated in the Art Emergency Workshop meant to enhance his professional expertise in developing talents in Africa and the world.
