A Nigerian artist will hear a foreign hit song taking over Lagos and say, "this is fire, how can I make music to sound this good?" Then he goes and makes something as hard to overthrow the foreign song. A Ghanaian artist will hear a foreign hit song taking over Accra, and instead of learning and improving their craft, they'll start crying in interviews that the reason their music isn't doing as well is because the local DJs are playing the foreign song. 10 years later, that Nigerian artist has become a global phenomenon with the extra artistic growth. While his Ghanaian counterpart is still granting interviews saying that foreign song is what is stifling his career advancement. That's the difference between the Nigerian music industry, and the Ghanaian music industry. An imbalance of elite mentality and competitive spirit. – at Lagos, Nigeria
