JJ Gonami Calls for Unity and Criticizes Industry’s Negative Culture

Ghanaian musician JJ Gonami has recently taken to his social media handles to express his concern about the prevailing negativity and disunity among Ghanaian musicians. In a series of insightful messages, Gonami called for an end to the pull-him-down mentality and urged artists to unite for the greater good of the industry.

 

In his first message, Gonami lamented the unfortunate trend of Ghanaian musicians engaging in internal rivalry rather than collaborating to elevate African music as a whole. He expressed disappointment, stating, “While Nigerians are out there projecting African Music to the next level, Ghanaian musicians are here hating on each other… smh.…enough is enough for that pull him down spirit. That bad energy in our industry is destroying everything. Kill that pride, let’s come together and work. Thank you.”

Gonami’s statement highlights the urgent need for Ghanaian musicians to set aside their differences and work collectively to advance the industry. The pull-him-down mentality, characterized by envy, competition, and sabotage, has been detrimental to the growth and progress of Ghanaian music.

 

In his second message, Gonami targeted the older generation of musicians who, in his opinion, have misused the opportunities provided by influential figures and investors, leading to a loss of trust and support from these key stakeholders. He criticized their reluctance to make way for young artists and their desire to remain at the top indefinitely, thus hindering the growth of emerging talent. Gonami humorously remarked, “The funny part is, after they made it to the top, they don’t want to see any young artiste come to the limelight. They want to remain there forever 😂😂 Gborgborvorwo sorrr!!!”

Gonami’s critique reflects the frustration felt by many up-and-coming musicians who struggle to secure support and investment due to the perceived hoarding of opportunities by established artists. By shedding light on this issue, he aims to encourage a more inclusive and supportive environment that nurtures the growth of young talents.

 

As Gonami’s messages resonate with the Ghanaian music community, it remains to be seen how his call for unity and rejection of the pull-him-down spirit will influence industry dynamics. The spotlight is now on musicians, stakeholders, and industry players to reflect on these issues and take collective action towards a more cooperative and prosperous future for Ghanaian music.
