According to him, this notion is a myth and emphasizes that one's association with prominent record labels does not dictate their longevity or success as an artist.
âI honestly donât think so, itâs just a myth that when you stop working with some notable record labels in Ghana, you fade away as an artist,â he told Amansan Krakye in an interview.
He added; âIt isnât true but itâs something that people have said continually which other people pick on it also to say same.
âBut then it is not even like that cis there are a lot of technicalities that go in there or agreements the person might have entered with the record label.
âSo these sayings arenât true and usually people say these from an uninformed situation that they arenât aware of but thatâs not how it is,â he said.
The music industry was rocked by the news of the sudden split between Mr Drew and his record label, Highly Spiritual Music.
Mr Drew in an interview clearly stated that his contract with Highly Spiritual Music had ended and it was not obligatory to renew it.
He added that it was also a decision to progress in his career.
âEveryone wants growth; you canât stay in one place for a long while. Itâs more about moving ahead,â he added.
The âDw3â hitmaker who doubles as a dancer noted that he has the blessings of Kaywa, his former manager.
He indicated that he had to rethink and do the right thing, but for now, he has decided to follow in the footsteps of superstars like Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, and Sarkodie who are thriving as independent artists
