Ghanaian musician Kelvyn Boy has explained why some Ghanaian musicians have now developed the interest in sounding Nigerian in their compositions.
He expressed his sentiments in a conversation with Andy Dosty on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM.
"We are finding it hard when we sound typical Ghanaian. I mean, enodey go when we do it like that. Even if ego is just here, you come back and say, 'Oh, why are we just here and some people are international?'" Kelvyn Boy stated.
He went on to explain that Nigerians also put the Ghanaian language into their tracks, which gives them a unique sound.
"They don't sound just them; they sometimes leave theirs and come and say our own. They fuse in. The fusion is what I'm talking about," he said.
Kelvyn Boy emphasised the importance of balance in music, noting that Ghanaian people enjoy listening to Nigerian songs, which often incorporate elements of Ghanaian music.
"Because at the end of the day, it's the same Ghanaian people who listen to Nigerian songs. We're talking about balance; they fuse in, and balance is what I think is taking time," he added.
In the meantime, Kelvyn Boy has released a new song, 'Break It'. His thoughts on the importance of fusion and balance in music are sure to resonate with fans and industry insiders alike.
