DUMSOR AND KUMKUMBHAGYA TO BLAME FOR LACK OF HIT SONGS – SAMINI

Emmanuel Andrews Samini popularly known in showbiz as SAMINI has blamed the country’s

recent power crisis (Dumsor) for music lovers lack of interest in his song and his inability to release hit songs that can make it to the music chart shows on radio stations across the country. 

The Highgrade Family artiste at the weekend released a controversial track titled Vextra which made reference to recent social media banter between Prodigal and Shatta Wale as the later intended to play a concert at Nima where VVIP had already announced their concert. 

Samini, who for some time now has been quiet in the music industry as far as hits songs are
concerned said in an interview in Obuasi that he and his team have tried beyond their means to release hit songs this year but the efforts has proved futile due to the energy crisis that has affected many music lovers in Ghana to have time to listen to radio stations and surf the internet to download his music.

“The energy crisis that Ghana had and I must say we are still having it’ Samini told Santrofi Fm. “I’m working hard in the studio together with my high grade family. Most fans don’t have the time to download my songs. They hardly even listen to radio since they don’t getconstant power to listen to their favorite fm stations. It’s just a pity, the few that are fortunate to get power too are engulfed by telenovelas and soaps especially that one on Adom TV, Kumkum Bhagya or whatever they call it. 

The Highgrade family management will push hard to get hit songs like we used to but the energy crisis, this is the after effect, it is not easy my brother I wish you were in my shoes to know how it feels”, He said. When asked whether his Vextra song was a diss song to Shatta Wale, Samini declined tocomment about it saying “no comment, he who the cap fits should wear it, I recorded that song for my fans and they love it”
