If young musicians insult the established ones, according to seasoned musician Reggie Rockstone, it will be a curse.
He said that they made numerous sacrifices in an interview with Ismail Akwei for GhanaWeb TV’s “The Lowdown.”
The Grandpapa of Hiplife declared that anyone who disrespected the “Old Gees” would not fare well in light of these sacrifices.
Reggie continued by mentioning how simple life has been for the musicians of today.
“I come from an era where we were hands-on, on the ground but today, these kids are so entitled, they’ve got YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat. I mean when you record a song you can share it on Facebook with a million viewers. In our time, someone had to come all the way from Suhum to Kantamanto to buy cassettes just to listen to music,” he said.
Reggie added: “Today, these kids are buying cars and building houses. This is why it is such a curse for the folks who we sacrificed for to ever be disrespectful to us. It is forbidden.
“It is a curse unto you if you ever speak disrespectfully because we sacrificed.”
