Since you are not Michael let him be, do your own thing and feel great with it. Music is universal so sing in any language you care...but if you want English speaking countries to not just hear you and butubut your message, that's up to you to give them that pleasure.
ReplyDeletei realize fante appropriates African culture. he is trying to encourage African artist that they can still be heard all over the world without singing English. music is his ambassador .
ReplyDeleteI think it is only fair that you sing in your own language so keep on working on getting better in the music industry.
ReplyDeleteI think it doesn't matter who you include as long as the message gets to the fans. Keep it up
ReplyDeleteyah just do your own thing.....
ReplyDeleteYou need to reconsider translating your songs because larger percentage of the world population speaks English!
ReplyDeleteI believe that you will succeed which you believe in yourself and in what you do. By doing what you believe in, you are branding yourself and with time, you will become known. Time! Time! Time!
