Musicians must expand knowledge in music - Nana Ampadu

Legendary Ghanaian musician, Nana Ampadu, has asked aspiring musicians to broaden their knowledge in music by learning new ideas relevant to the profession and also learn how to use musical instruments.

“It is not too late to learn something new. My advice to every musician is that if you want to be a very good entertainer, get yourself prepared to learn how to play the keyboard or guitar.

“You can't just be a musician, if you don't know anything, I'll call you a singer. If you are a musician at least you must know something,” the musician said.

The highlife musician who raised concerns over the adoption of foreign attitudes and ways said the value of Ghana's culture was deteriorating because Ghanaians do not promote it.

“That's why when your counterparts raise concerns about this challenge I tell them the fault is not from anybody but our society,” he stated.
