"Gambo's streaming numbers are questionable" - Entertainment pundit
Entertainment pundit Chris Tsormanah, in an exclusive interview, spoke to YEN.com.gh about Gambo's sudden rise to success in the music industry.
He said Gambo has a history, and based on that, people have solid grounds to doubt his exorbitant streaming numbers. Given this history, it is not a surprise that many people are punching holes in his activities.
"Gambo has a history. So, if people doubt Gambo, they have good grounds to doubt him because how Gambo even won the 23rd VGMA, now TGMA Unsung Artiste of the Year was questionable to quite a number of people."
Explaining further, he said that within that year, in 2022, there were quite prominent people in that category such as Bryan The Mensah, Nautyca, Ama Nova, King Maaga, Vanilla, Rcee, Chief One, Roy X Taylor and ShugaLord. However, Gambo, from nowhere won it. but then right after that, he went quiet.
"If you watch those who have won it in that category over the years, they try to come up a bit. But Gambo was nowhere to be found, only to go to the US some two years ago. Then, when he was coming back to Ghana, he got a grand welcome."
Mr Tsormanah opined that Gambo featuring Jim Jones on the remix was commendable. However, he does not have the attention to help the Ghanaian rapper pull such high numbers on streaming platforms.
He stated that if it was Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie, the numbers would have made sense because Sarkodie has a massive following.
"All the big people around the world, in one way or the other, inflate their numbers. There is a way of influencing the numbers. The Burna Boys, the Davidos, the Wizkids, and co are not all organic numbers. There is a way to go around it. And if you go around it so well, it even fits into the algorithm."
