AUG 28, 2018 LISTEN

Zylofon Music signed artistes witnessed one of the most disparaging humiliations in their respective music careers in the hands of Nigeria fans who witnessed the menzgold, Zylofon Naija Invasion Concert in Nigeria.

The Menzgold, Zylofon Media concert which took place on Friday 24th August,2018 was to formally launch the Nigeria offices for the two outfits; (Menzgold and Zylofon Media).

Astonishingly, Ghana’s most popular dancehall artistes Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy who were the leading Ghanaian contingent at the launch of their record label and sister company Menzgold failed to move the crowd.

The crowd responded positively to their home stars (Nigerian artiste) like Burna Boy and Olamide, but failed to reciprocate the same gesture towards the Ghanaian counterparts.

The bad reception from the Nigerian crowd to the Ghanaian top musicians have created elephantine controversies within the Ghana music industry – with most entertainment pundits throwing unnecessary shades at the Nigerian fans.

Expressing his view to the cloying matter in an exclusive interview with Razzonline.com,legendary Sound engineer,Zapp Mallet indicated strenuously that he is not surprised our top-notch artistes were ferociously snubbed.

“l’m not surprised our artistes where humiliated like that — Razz let me tell you something;even if we go and perform in Togo, Macedonia, Croatia we shall still experience the same bad reception because the music industry is in identity crises…Yes,we don’t have identity”,Zapp mallet told Razzonline.com

Explaining how to solve the identity crises, the most respected Ghanaian sound engineer indicated that,

”If we think we want to do dancehall, we have to do it in our own special way that would even beat what the Jamaicans are doing because we can’t compete with them.’

Zapp, who was extremely passionate in his deliberation advised that,”The only way to take the rivalry between us and the Nigerians seriously is to step up our game– from production to marketing”.
