A couple of days ago, veteran highlife legend, Rex Omar reportedly said he will not allow any of his children do professional music solely and depend on that to make a living because the industry seldom pays.
From the backlash, it seems our man has been misquoted. People actually feel he said he will not allow his kids do music at all.

Rex has come out to give a clearer picture of what he meant. Speaking on DayBreak on Hitz, he reiterated:
“If there are musicians who have made money then it wasn’t through music. They all know the truth. We should understand our country is a small one.
“You are kind of unemployed if you play 2 shows a year. Some play 200 shows but not the situation in Ghana…” he said.
What he said did not sit well with Akoo Nana who happened to be in the studio with him. He said Rex’s utterances will just discourage the young ones who want to venture into music.
“It is because of people like Rex Omar that’s why people don’t have money. Don’t discourage the children. When I started my career I looked for a business manager. I respect him to say we should have a business but he should look for solutions too.”
