Ghanaians can’t support more than one artiste at the same time- Kelvynboy
Ghanaian Afrobeats sensation, Kelvynboy has stated that despite the myriad of talent in the industry, Ghanaians do not support all of them at the same time.
According to the “Vero” hitmaker, the support is thrown behind one artiste at a time, making it difficult for everyone else to have the chance to shine.
“We can’t support several people at the same time. Nigerians are good artists. They support everyone equally as they do it. That’s what we don’t do. We don’t support several artists at the same time. If Kelvynboy comes, yes, it’d be Kelvynboy. We go take him, compare. People say, oh, it’d be this one,” he stated in an interview on MX24.
Kelvynboy shared this opinion while speaking on diversity and support within the Ghanaian music industry.

The award-winning artists believes the music space has diversified, and music lovers have been given the opportunity to listen to their choice of artists rather than been told to do so by “gatekeepers.”
“I think that narrative, that table is turning, actually because way back before when I came into the industry, every song could blow up quickly. It hasn’t happened lately. Thanks to social media and all that. It’s not like the ones that some gatekeepers are saying is the number one is the number one. The number one is on our phones. We can’t force anybody to like or unlike something,” he stated.
