He used the late Nana Amapdu as a typical example where he cited how he was struggling to meet ends meet after he partially retired from making music and had to solely depend on royalties.

In his own words;

I fear for myself when I see the lives and living conditions of our old musicians. Some people say they didn’t live good and meaningful lives or refused to invest their monies but that is not right. If the systems are working, they can’t fall so low and be broke in their old age.

Sometimes it gets hard and I ask myself if I should stop music or not. It gets hard sometimes. We have families and children we need to take care of

He ended the interview by emphatically stating that almost 98% of the musicians we know are very hungry and a step away from storming the internet to beg for help.
