Highlife Musician Quarme Zaggy says the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards only awards popular songs instead of quality songs.
Speaking in an interview on ‘JukeBox’ – an entertainment show hosted by Nana Adwoa Annan on Accra-based Atinka TV, Quame Zaggy , who was explaining why he has never won any VGMA before said:
“Most of the awards schemes in Ghana award popular songs. I’m saying that they award songs that are popular and not the quality of the song. Maybe they think my songs are not popular enough to get in there.
For me, I’m not the award type of artiste. I believe music is forever so if you win awards or you don’t win awards, music is supposed to be forever. I exert all my energy on producing quality music that will stay forever”.
Like other artistes who take on the scheme and attack it, the ‘Galamsey’ crooner says he will not use that approach and that when the time is right, quality music will be awarded.
