Shatta Wale urged collaboration to ensure widespread music listening.
Dancehall musician Shatta Wale from Ghana has voiced concern about the difficulties facing the country's music sector.
He states on his Facebook page that the current situation of the Ghanaian music industry is a result of a number of factors, including the absence of suitable policies.
"It is evident that our development and potential on the global arena have been hampered by the absence of supportive laws, resources, and infrastructure.
This is an urgent issue that has to be resolved by strengthening intellectual property rights and licencing, investing in contemporary infrastructure.
He has recommended industry stakeholders work together to implement the necessary reforms the required for the industry to flourish in order to improve the situation.
"It is time for us to work together to create an enabling environment that attracts major global investments.
And propels our music industry to unprecedented heights, contributing to our national identity and economy," he writes in the letter.
As interested parties in the Ghanaian music industry, let's join together and work together to create new opportunities for our sector.
As Ghanaians, we must use all available tools to ensure that the world hears our music," he continues.
