Ghanaian musician Edem has emphasised the importance of unity and support among Ghanaian artistes in an interview with Doreen Avio on Daybreak Hitz.
He said artistes need to encourage each other, support each other in the in the best way they can.
"I don't think one artiste can blow the name of Ghana. No I don’t believe in that,” he said.
He cited how Nigerians musician win by lending a hand to each other.
"Artistes like Burna Boy, Wizkid, Davido, Rema, and Ayra Starr have contributed to Nigeria's success in the music industry. And so if one man thinks that I can be the only one to take Ghana, that would not work. So it has to be, we support each other, we collaborate, we push everybody,” he noted.
He therefore spoke about why he decided to make a surprise appearance at Stonebwoy's concert in Boston, which was just a four-hour drive from his location.
"So I was in the US for the Grammy weekend. Gambo and I performed at the Grammy pre-party. Then I flew back to Ghana in January and was supposed to return to the US in February. When I saw Stonebwoy's tour dates, I congratulated him and decided to attend one of his shows.
I informed my team and US handler, and we drove to the venue. Stonebwoy was thrilled to see me, and we spoke at his hotel," Edem said.
