DJ Azonto, a Ghanaian disc jockey and musician, has stated that he is the most hardworking musician in the country and, as such, deserves to be nominated for Artist of the Year in all award schemes.
DJ Azonto has been nominated for ‘New Artiste of the Year’ at the upcoming Ghana Europe Music Awards, alongside actress-turned-musician Efia Odo.
He has, however, expressed displeasure at being lumped in with Efia Odo, arguing that Efia Odo is nowhere near his stature and brand, and thus people should not compare the two.
“I believe in myself but people don’t believe in me, recently I had a nomination for Ghana Europe Music awards, can you believe that a whole me they’ve placed me in Efia Odo’s category?
“I have sixteen good awards to my credit and Efia Odo has no award and she has no hit song. I am better than everyone in the category of all the musicians, I am the number artist in Ghana.
“Efia Odo is not my class, do you understand, yes, I have 16 good awards to my credit so Efia Odo is never my class,” he said.
He continued by saying that most Ghanaian artists are lazy.
“They’re not working, they’re lazy, I’m doing the work and they don’t want to agree. I deserve to be applauded…because I wear ladies’ dresses so they think I’m a fool,” he added.
