Dancehall artiste, Epixode says he is very open to doing campaign songs for any political party that approaches him.
According to the musician, he will not hesitate to make such an offer despite the polarised nature of Ghanaian politics.
Key for him, though, is the message of the campaign song. Epixode indicated that he will not want to be part of any campaign that will inspire hope in the electioneering period but end up disappointing the Ghanaian people.
Speaking to Amelley Djosu on Joy Prime’s Celeb Biz, the dancehall artiste said that he is comfortable being unaligned with a political party in Ghana.
“The opposition was using 'Wahala Dey' when I hadn't even contracted them. I didn't take any money from them. However, if they approach me and want me to create an anthem for them, knowing that the message or the lyrics are geared towards something positive, I will definitely do it,” he said.
Epixode is concerned about how divisive the country has become, making it difficult for artistes to express their views on pertinent issues bothering the country.
He revealed that some of his colleagues in the creative industry have been maligned as a result of expressing their opinions on national policies.
The 2021 Reggae and Dancehall Artiste of the Year further added that there are pertinent issues, such as climate change and environmental pollution that are bedevilling the world and need equal attention.
Furthermore, the artiste added that pursuing music and fine art has been a rewarding venture that he never regrets entering.
He, however, revealed that he does not have the business acumen to handle transactions, hence the need to delegate that to a trusted team.
