Ghanaian Rapper, Edem has started a conversation on twitter, wednesday, calling for African Music to have its own version of Billboard, Awards Schemes and more.
The Rapper and Enterpreneur believes African Music is going places and therefore there is the need to get these key foundations setup to help ground the future generation of musicians and other stakeholders who “look for validation from the west”
