Stop pointing fingers, promote Ghana music – Efya to critics of Amaarae’s Coachella performance

Ghanaian musician Efya has slammed some netizens for attacking Ghanaian singer Amaarae after her performance at the recent 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.

In a post shared on X on April 15, 2025, Efya emphasised that critics should rather focus on supporting Ghanaian creatives when they make an impact internationally.

“The focus should be on amplifying what we’ve built not tearing each other down. We’re finally moving the culture forward globally, and instead of clapping, y’all are pointing fingers. Priorities, please,” she said.

Efya entreated Ghanaians not to sabotage the same unity and international recognition they prayed for.

“Let’s not make the mistake of sabotaging the very thing we’ve all prayed for,” she added.

Her comment comes in response to netizens expressing disappointment over Amaarae’s decision not to perform her global hit “Sad Gurlz Luv Money”, which features Moliy.

In addition, others criticised her for her alleged silence during previous protests against illegal mining (galamsey) in Ghana.
