Ghanaian musician Article Wan has expressed his frustration with the music industry, citing a lack of support, sabotage, and the existence of gatekeepers who manipulate the system.
Article Wan revealed in a conversation with DJ Slim on Daybreak Hitz that Ghana is sitting on him.
“Ghana is sitting on Article Wan and it's so bad it's so terrible I have something here but I cannot put it out myself alone. I need everybody's support, some heads have ignored me and it's not good, but I'm hitting on them," Article Wan said.
Article Wan also spoke about the existence of gatekeepers in the industry, who he believes can sabotage an artiste's career.
"I won't believe that there is a conscious agenda to sabotage me, but from what I'm seeing, it's scary," he stated.
The musician also shared his personal experience of facing challenges in the industry, despite his talent and hard work.
"Let's be realistic, people have got their own favourites. If you are not part of team A, when they are doing something, maybe selecting you will be their second option, you will never be their first option," he added.
Article Wan also expressed his gratitude for the support of his fans and the success of his music, despite the challenges he has faced.
"I thank my God in heaven, because God has helped me with production. In Ghana, after one hit song, and it passes, that's it for you. But I featured some hot songs after which included Patapaa, Joey B, and all these hits are coming from me and even making waves in Russia," he said.
Despite the challenges, Article Wan remains optimistic and grateful for the success of his music.
