Veteran artiste manager and entertainment executive Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson, widely known as Bullgod, has made it clear that he is officially done with signing and investing in artistes—and he didn’t mince words about it.
Speaking on Showbiz Max, hosted by Kumi Kasa, on Saturday, January 24, on Max FM 89.7, the Bullhaus Entertainment CEO shared his candid thoughts on the growing number of disputes between artistes and record labels in Ghana’s music industry. His comments came in the wake of renewed conversations around the Kwesi Arthur and Ground Up Chale situation.
When asked why many upcoming artistes fail to properly read and understand contracts before signing, Bullgod expressed deep frustration with the state of artiste management and music investment in the country. According to him, constant misunderstandings, lack of commitment, and endless legal battles have made the business exhausting and unrewarding.
“I would rather invest my money in rearing pigs and goats than invest in an artiste,” Bullgod stated bluntly.
He further explained that he has no intention of returning to artiste management, stressing that the riskso involved far outweigh the benefits—especially when contracts are disrespected and agreements are later challenged.
Bullgod’s remarks have since sparked widespread discussion within the entertainment space, once again bringing attention to critical issues such as contract literacy, professionalism, and the long-term sustainability of Ghana’s music industry.
The conversation on Showbiz Max with Kumi Kasa has reignited an important debate—one that both artistes and investors may need to take more seriously moving forward.
