Kwesi Arthur doubles his performance charge after BET Nomination
Ghanaian popular rapper Kwesi Arthur within a while has become the most talked about Ghanaian artiste following his recent Black Entertainment Television(BET)Awards nomination.Although the rapper lost his category to the South African, Kwesi Arthur still remains Ghana’s favourite young rapper. Now, prior to Kwesi Arthur’sBETfeat, he used to take GH¢15,000 from event organisers to mount their platforms.However, the story is entirely different after his BETnomination according to Takoradi-based Sadick Assah who happens to be an event promoter and organiser.Speaking on Zylofon FM, Sadick is reported to have said that he contacted the rapper for a show which he was asked to payGH¢15,000but the cash doubled after the Tema-based musician had the BET nomination.According to him, Kwesi pegging his charges aroundGH¢30,000within a twinkle of an eye was a wrong move since artists also need concerts to get closer to their fans.The event organiser further advised the young oneswho are making waves, Kuami Eugene, Kidi, King Promise and the others to be considerate when charging for shows because they will not reign forever.
