Highlife Should Be Commercialized More – Ball J

Ghanaian sound engineer, Albert Serebo Ayeh-Hanson, popularly known as Ball J, thinks Highlife has not been commercialized enough.

Despite the acceptance that Highlife is a Ghanaian genre, he said more should be done to commercialize it.

He lamented the failure of commercializing it in a recent interview.

Ball J asserted that Highlife should be redefined or a new genre should be introduced.

“As for Ghana, we have our real identity as Highlife which is perfect but making the Highlife commercial is what we’ve failed. Because we have Highlife in Ghana that when you come into the country you’ll hear being played but how does it enter the Grammys.

“Before our Highlife goes to the Grammys we have to redefine it and say this is Highlife from Ghana or we have to bring a new genre,” he told Amansan Krakye on Cape Coast-based Property FM.

Veteran musician, Amakye Dede, has named Kiki Banson, as the person who gave him the crown to bestow on Kuami Eugene.

Recently, he alleged that he was forced to do that.

In a different interview with Abeiku Santana, the highlife legend mentioned KiKi Banson as the one who was behind the act.

“I am telling you straightforwardly that Kiki was the one who gave me the crown. He was the one who forced me to crown Eugene. When he initially gave it to me, I gave it to one of my boys, Robberman, to put it down. Because it wasn’t my intention, they forced me to do it. If you like, you can call Kiki and confirm whether he wasn’t the one who gave me the crown. Call him right now,” he said.

When the host asked if he was talking about Kiki Banson, Amakye Dede replied: “Why should he do this to me?”

However, Robert Klah, the Head of Public Events and Communication at Charterhouse, has reacted that they knew nothing about the crowning session.

“We did not orchestrate any crowning session. So, I am a bit lost when it comes to the assertion that event organizers are responsible,” he stressed.

“Anyone who says that is ignorant of what goes on in the movie industry. He has not been famous and popular that is why. It’s the money from the acting that I used to build two houses and I want to build more for my children. It’s the money from acting because aside from that what other job do I do?” he said in an interview with Precise FM.

Akrobeto added: “I am using myself as an example and Lilwin as well. Go and check out the school Lil Win has put up, go and see. Such a thing has never appeared in the history of Ghana. What job does he do? We shouldn’t be committing such mistakes. If it’s not the money from movies, then which money am I using to survive? Any money I get is either from the movie or acting work.”

However, this task is far from easy, considering the controversies and heated debates that often surround the entertainment fraternity.

In a recent interview with Abeiku Santana on Okay Fm, MzGee revealed that she had never considered taking time to improve her pronunciation of the local language, Twi, until she assumed the role of hosting the show.

Throughout her career, she had predominantly worked with English-speaking media houses. But by joining a local language-speaking media firm, she has now been forced to explore new horizons.

MzGee openly acknowledged that hosting United Showbiz has been a continuous learning experience.

Each day brings new lessons, and she remains dedicated to expanding her knowledge and skills in her role.

Although financial considerations are important, she affirmed in the course of the interview that money was not the driving factor behind her departure from her previous workplace.

Like any human being, she understands the necessity of earning a living, but her decision was primarily motivated by personal growth and embracing fresh challenges.
