According to him, the messages in songs released by musicians in recent years do not make them as popular as they once did. He went on to say that dance is valued more than message.

“Yes, I see it that way,” Nana Acheampong retorted. The meaning of our songs was different in our day. It was brimming with motivational advice. People have called me to share their childhood experiences of being inspired and impacted by my songs.
“Since dancing is everything these days, a trend eventually becomes dated and is replaced by another. The message was the focus for the duration of our time.”
