The streets of Accra were alive with music and excitement on December 20, 2024, as Highlife sensation Fameye hosted his highly anticipated Fameye Family Concert.

Among the stars in attendance was Mr Drew, one of Ghana’s versatile artists, who didn’t shy away from sharing his thoughts on the state of support for Ghanaian musicians.

With his signature charisma, Mr Drew mingled with fans and industry colleagues alike, soaking in the vibrant atmosphere.

Addressing the growing assertion that Ghanaians are finally giving their artists the support they deserve, he offered a nuanced perspective.

“Yeah, I think that it’s about time. We are there for the people. All we need is their support and their love, and then we go,” Mr Drew said, his optimism shining through. However, he didn’t hesitate to acknowledge that there’s still room for growth. “It’s not there yet. But it’s getting better.”

The night was more than a celebration of Fameye’s music—it was a testament to the camaraderie among Ghanaian artists. “We’re all supporting each other. We came to support Fameye, and it’s an amazing vibe. I love the setup, everything,” Mr Drew shared with a smile.

Beyond the glamour and applause, the challenges of the industry were not lost on him. Mr Drew spoke candidly about the financial realities of being an artist in Ghana.

“Most of the time, the money comes from our own pockets. But it’s all about our love for the fans and for the work.”
