Ghanaian songstress Wendy Shay has taken spoken in support of her colleague arts as she debunks the prevailing notion that filling large venues and winning Grammy Awards are the sole measures of an artiste’s success.

In a tweet that resonated with many in the music industry, she questioned why filling iconic venues like the O2 Arena and winning Grammy Awards have become the standard benchmarks for evaluating an artiste’s achievements.

Juxtaposing the statue quo with renowned artists like Bob Marley and 2Pac, who had achieved legendary status without winning a Grammy, Wendy Shay called on Ghanaians to redefine their perspectives on success.

“Why is filling 02 and winning Grammy become the standard to measure the success of an Artist? Bob Marley and 2Pac are successful musicians but never won a Grammy. Let Ghanaian musicians breathe ! Ghana wake up!” she tweeted.

Wendy Shay’s response follows the recent success of Nigerian Afrobeats star Asake, who held a historic concert at the O2 Arena.

This achievement, although significant, challenges the notion that only international artistes can achieve such milestones.

It also raises questions about the varying degrees of support that Ghanaian artistes receive in similar contexts.
