Ghanaian highlife musician, Dada Hafco, has reacted to Stonebwoy’s statement that no musician will emerge like Sarkodie, Shatta Wale or himself until the next four decades.
Stonebwoy, speaking at the 4Syte music awards which was held recently, said the three musicians including himself are national assets, who deserve to be protected for their works in the music industry.
But according to Dada Hafco, Stonebwoy has every right to say what he feels but it doesn’t necessarily mean his predictions are certain.

“I don’t agree with him. Stonebwoy is entitled to his opinions. I watch the Ampadu’s before the Amakye Dede’s then the Reggie’s emerged before Okyeame Kwame then Kwadee; all these stars were created in a span of 15 years,” he said.
Dad Hafco explained that unlike Ghana’s music structure where some few musicians stay on top of the ladder, the music system abroad gives chance for up-and-coming musicians to attain the limelight effortlessly.
The system doesn’t allow good music to happen. When Burna Boy won his Grammy nomination, ask yourself, what are we selling out there? What is Ghana selling abroad? We are living in people’s shadows. Whenever we do anything we kill it,” he said on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM, monitored by Adomonline.com.
