According to the ‘Tonga’ hitmaker, Ghanaian musicians in the past were always vibrant but the situation is not the same in recent times.

“Let’s take it back to 2012 /2013; today you hear Keche play some tunes or some artist doing something here but now it’s like everyone is just…I’m not happy in the industry, I’m not happy”, he said.

He added that he could hardly count a lot of artistes who, in his opinion, are currently reigning in the music industry.

“So Danny was like give me top 10 artistes who are currently doing it and we got to like 4, and I was like wait its true though”, he added.

Speaking  in an interview with YFM on Thursday he lamented that this situation has dampened his taste for today’s Ghanaian music.

“Back then I used to enjoy Ghanaian music so much……. I miss when every song was a hit on radio… Now it’s like everyone wants a hit and that shouldn’t be the main focus. No, Back then they were doing music for music”, He lamented.

Meanwhile Joey B also touched on the current state of his relationship with fellow artiste and collaborator pappy kojo.

“People have asked me this so many times, we’re super good but we are not as close as we used to be. You know people grow. I got to know pappy on twitter and he has his people already and I can’t show you what to do”, he said.
