He explained that this would help boost the media's image and credibility on the international scene.

"If the artistes go to interviews, post it, show it, and let the world know this is the local media supporting the culture back home here. By that way, when people come here, they think of those local media first and they also think highly of those platforms."

Adesope Olajide acknowledged the many challenges local media outlets encounter in their attempts to gain audiences outside the country without covering international events.

The 3 Shots of Tequila UK podcast host called on the media and musicians to collaborate and project Ghanaian music to a foreign audience.

The media back home has one job. That job is to project artistes and creatives to Ghana and also make sure that when the world comes here to see them, they see the presentation on an international level. It's not about really going international. It's more about the artistes working with the media platforms to let the world see what the media is doing here."
