According to the Canadian-based musician, music lovers in Ghana are very narrow with regard to the kind of music they listen to, which often hinders the progress of some artistes in other genres.

During an interview on his recent media tour in Ghana, KFT opined that one major way to expand the industry is by exploring new sounds.

"Sometimes I wish Ghanaians would be receptive to artistes like myself in the disapora. I sometimes think that some Ghanaians are accustomed to one particular sound and are not open to other sounds.
