There should to be a collective effort to respect timing of events in Ghana – KiDi urges

In a recent interview on TV3’s ‘The Day Show’ with Berla Mundi, the ‘Likor’ singer shared his experience with performing and attending shows out of Ghana, revealing that one thing that always catches his attention is the respect for time.

Citing his experience outside the country, KiDi said he always had the mentality of going to shows 2 to 3 hours after the slated time, as is the norm in Ghana, but to his shock,  he was told one time that the event would start at exactly 8pm and close at 10pm.

“One thing I always tell people is timing of shows, the first time I started performing outside they told me that I was going on set at 8 and I was so used to being in Ghana when they say show starts at 8, that means you’ll come three hours after so I was just relaxed and they told me the show starts at 8 and by 10pm the venue is closed and that was one of my biggest cultural shocks.

KiDi added that he loves that culture “because you get the crowd at their most energetic, their most hyped, but I don’t understand the concept of shows lasting into the next morning, 4am and 3am.”.

“I wish we could all do shows, everyone comes early 8, 9, 10 and we are done, go continue your evening, beautiful

He continued; “There was one time I was doing a show I said we are starting at 9, and I put it in my mind that if two people are there, I would perform and that was what I wanted to do to help the situation but when you get there and you see the two people you can’t do it and that’s why I think it’s a collective thing, we all have to make this work,” he added.
