Accra, Jan. 16, GNA
– Ghanaian songstress, Sista Afia has asserted that the future of music in the
country will witness female dominance considering the progress of some female
acts over the past years.
Sista Afia known in
real life as Francisca Gawugah believes it is about time female acts drive the
Ghanaian music industry to another level despite the strides made by some male
artistes both on local and international scene.
”Yes we would take
over in the near future. It is about time, and as at now you can see we are
gradually catching up with the male artistes,” She told Ghana News Agency.
When asked about her
progress made so far in her music career, Sista Afia was confident about
winning numerous accolades especially at the upcoming Vodafone Ghana Music
Awards (VGMA).
”I am still
achieving my music dreams, it does not come easily but with hard work and
determination I would get there. I deserve an award at this year’s VGMA looking
at the hard work I have put in the year under review.
“I have songs
that were released last year which are still making waves this year, of course
”Weather” is number one, and “Conner Conner” with Kelvynboy is another great
jam.’’
Sista Afia was
poised about breaking barriers and making it to the top this year with some top
collaborations having already dazzled on “Broken Heart” hit song on Sarkodie’s “Black Love” album released
last December.
“Fans should
expect a lot from me this year. I am releasing a whole lot of hit songs,
starting off with “Paper” single which features Victor AD from
Nigeria and I will release ”Queen Solomon II” this year,” she said.
