When it comes to the music world, collaborating with treasured musicians like Snoop Lion (formerly known as Snoop Dogg) & Big Sean can be seen as a big step—and a jump towards attaining international stardom.
However, I have realized that such collaborations do not help African artistes when it comes to sales and acceptance. It will hardly cut down the throat of music lovers when an African singer like D’banj gets lost on a track with Snoop Lion and Big Sean.
Before I explain the above, let me say, I have listened to D’banj’s new song- Blame It On The Money and it is great. But I won’t want to listen to it again and I cannot even point out what music listened to…
If I want to listen to Hip hop, I will go for strictly Snoop, Nas, Jay-Z, Eminem, Drake and the others. And if I want to listen to African music, this does not pass the test either.
When such collaborations are put together, Americans and Hip Hop consumers do not patronize them—and the Africa market struggles to enjoy it too.
In effect, such well-produced songs die off quickly as no group of people can identify themselves with them —-whole-heartedly!
Maybe it is time for D’banj to let the mic go since it seems his struggle for the next big hit is pushing him into making some of music’s big mistakes!

So you have join them too in criticizing D’banj, I think you need to stop hating. why don’t you leave that to your blog commenters. That’s unprofessional of you. Are you hating because he’s a Nigerian? …Sheath your sword boy. ….Like Davido said “Kokomaster him be baba now” the earlier you know this the better for you
@Tai, Haters every where, funny how people would never stop hating.
You really suck for posting shit on this blog, that sounded like you are jealous and hating cos he is a Nigerian, your work is to post what is happening among Ghanaian celebrities and not hating other countries celebrities. get a life i will stop getting on here smh
@Amuson, how old are u 12??The writer is simply expressing his view as such nothing to do with being Ghanaian.If u like it fine just say that and stop trolling cos no one is going to have any nigeria vs ghana arguement with u.What is hating have to do with this??KMT

Proudly 9ja, i must say that in as much as i don’t like you chris for using any topic that has to do with 9ja to boost your commenters, you really hit the nail on the head. he needs to repackage his music cos right now i can dance his older music to his bachlor and so on music. They are all BS.
I am definitely not feeling this track. I personally feel that it has way too much going on, and seeing as i’m not a hip hop fan, i’m a little disappointed.
However, I am sure that D’Banj feels like this is a positive move for him, so good on him! I just hope he returns to that hardcore Afrobeats that I love.
Personally, i’m not feeling this track. There is just way too much going on, and as i’m not a hip hop fan, this is disappointing.
However, I am aware that this must be a positive music move in D’Banj’s eyes.
I sincerely hope that he goes back to making that hardcore Afrobeats that i love. It’s currently starting to sound like he is losing himself.
