Ghanaian rapper, Paa Dogo, is not ready to feature any new artiste to bounce back into the music industry.
He told Graphic Showbiz in an interview that he prefers to make it on his own than to ride on the back of current musicians.
“With good promotion and a great song, getting a banger is easy. I don’t need to ride on KiDi, Kuami Eugene, or Stonebwoy for my comeback. Very soon, Paa Dogo will be one of the biggest artistes in Ghana,” he said.
Paa Dogo, who has worked with musicians such as Obrafour, Tinny, and Okyeame Kwame, is known for songs including Osumafour (Mmonto), Medo No, and Tykun.
To Paa Dogo, he would prefer to wait for a long time and come out with something great than to rush and come out with something below standard.
“When you set a standard, you don’t have to reduce it. I have been praised by my peers and Ghanaians for being a good rapper, so what’s the point in releasing a song below standard. It won’t make any sense,” he stated.
Paa Dogo also said that there was no sense in recent rap songs of the new crop of musicians, and it is unfortunate that was what Ghanaians seem to enjoy.
“When you talk about good rap and deep lyrics the likes of myself, Okra Tom Dawidi, Jay Dee, Obrafour, Tinny, Okyeame Kwame, Lord Kenya had that, but the same cannot be said now. Now every rapper is talking nonsense and is getting the views and attention all over,” he told Graphic Showbiz recently.
Paa Dogo said the new crop of rappers was not positively impacting the up-and-coming ones.
“What are the new crop of rappers teaching the up and coming rappers? We took inspiration from the likes of Reggie Rockstone, but what are they also teaching the young ones who take inspiration from them?” he asked.
