IT’S been eight years since Dancehall artiste Abdul Razak Issahaku, popularly known as Iwan, made any impact on the music industry, and he has blamed the media for shutting him out.
“I think the media has not been fair to me in the past eight years. It is not as if I have not been releasing songs or albums, it is the media who don’t support me.
“I invite TV3, TV Africa and other media houses anytime I launch an album but they don’t come. These same media will be at other artistes’ album launches and I wonder why it is so.
“I have performed at TV3’s Music Music, TV Africa and at almost every media house which invited me, but they refuse to attend my album launch or play my songs,” Iwan told Graphic Showbiz recently.
According to Iwan, it was about time the media showed him love because he had been there for them. “I was not hesitant to do free shows for the media houses when they invited me to perform for them, and this is the time they should also show me love,” he said.
Asked why he thought the media would blacklist him, Iwan said he suspected it was because of the issues he had with his former label, Bullhaus Entertainment.
“A lot went on with Bullhaus Entertainment when I left and I believe the media sided with Bullhaus and decided to blacklist me,” he revealed.
