“Because of the nature of the show business in Ghana, an artiste who has a small team like I do and wants to make an impact will have to go to the studio and stay there all night, wake up at the time when corporate people are going to work to send his proposals.

“He works as a corporate person in the afternoon. At night when corporate people are resting, he is in the studio creating, and that is the recipe for heart attack”.

Okyeame Kwame further advised his colleague musicians to make time to rest, adding that artistes should stay off alcohol. “Let’s take some time off to rest, get professionals to handle things for us and let’s get help in connection with getting a doctor, stay off alcohol and most importantly hit the gym”.

Musicians are noted for spending long hours in the studio trying to develop new ideas for their music Some travel around the country and beyond for concerts and hardly get any sleep during that period.
