“Until Ghanaian Artistes Respect Everybody In The Chain, This Rants Won’t Stop” – Abu Sadiq

Sadiq Abudulia Abu, the CEO of the 3 Music Awards and the newly formed Wildaland Festival, has turned to social media to criticize Shatta Wale for failing to respect their agreement that he performs at his Wildaland Festival despite receiving his entire agreed amount ahead of the event in the Shai Hills.

Sadiq revealed this information to the public in response to Shatta Wale’s recent outburst, accusing the Nigerian music business of failing to help the Ghanaian music industry while the latter is doing more for the former.

He chastised Shatta Wale for being an unprofessional artist who took a large quantity of money from him and his crew just to fail to show up and play on the day he was supposed to.

He also cited King Promise and his management’s mistreatment of him before his recent successful Wildaland show as another reason why he feels the business will continue to suffer.

Check out the full post of Sadiq below:

“Facts. If you like play 100% Ghanaian music and bill only Ghanaian talents (a major one didn’t show up after being fully paid recently, but make we take wanna refunds first, I will address it properly later) Many if not most Ghanaian talents will blame everybody else but themselves and their lack of proper team structures, for their lack of progress or stunted growth. If every proper industry person will speak, devoid of the emotional nationalism and highlight the often raw treatment, non-support (Ofcourse for them support your own is only when you support them alone) and the abuse we receive from some of them (the thing King Promise and e team take do me ehn, I doubt if I can ever overcome it) all their talk about market protection will only amount to selfish interests and nothing about enabling industry. Until they all begin to value everybody else in the chain, all of this emotional nationalism rants without any real and genuine intentions and strategies to enable industry won’t amount to anything. They know the truth and they know that which are gimmicks. Happy new year guys, hope we all strive to do better, value everybody in the value chain and enable each other. That’s how to grow and not be worried about the impressive activities of your neighbours.”
