Compared to Ghanaians, Nigerians show me more respect, says Reggie Rockstone
Reggie Rockstone, the father of Ghana’s hiplife, has claimed that Nigerians have treated him with greater respect than Ghanaians have.
Andy Dosty was asked if he felt disrespectful by some errors in the most recent Afrobeats documentary on Netflix during an interview with Andy Dosty on Hitz FM.
In his response, he said: “The only people who disrespected me were my people – Ghanaians – and the media went along with it. I was popping off in 1993. But according to the Afro Beats Documentary, I started in 1999 – which is false,” he said.
Reggie’s statement comes at a time when a lot of people are lambasting Ghanaian creatives for not telling their own stories.
According to Reggie, even though the documentary mentions some Ghanaian entertainment figures, it failed to tell the full contribution of Ghana’s contribution to the Afrobeats movement.
