THE DEMOLISHING OF 5FIVE WHO’S FAULT


5FIVE. the Aphro pop group, has been on the minds of many, especially fans and what they keep on asking is who or what is killing the group 5five, is it managerial or the composition of another hit song.
One time a manager of a group said that, ‘when artiste gets to a certain level in their career especially after the first album success, they begin to challenge themselves’, Wait! Could that have happen to the group 5Five, did they take up the challenge of we can do it all by ourselves without managerial assistance.
During a vox pop on Accra Polytechnic campus, the ladies especially were of the view that 5five did not really do much on their hit single ‘African Girlz’ causing them all these problems.
They also added that if they want to get their fame back, a possible collaboration with DIOJO (the singer on that song) will cause the magic, will that actually work?
Guys from the same campus, who seem to be great fans of the group, were of the view that, it is not a composition problem but promotional or managerial assistance.
In explaining their reason, the guys said that, ‘5Five’s second album which had the song ‘PARTY’ ft Iwan and Gino, is a great song, all the guys need to do is a promotional plan and they are good to go.
The vox pop continued in a chit chat form with some pals close to the group inside Adabraka just to get their the other side of the story.
It was more laughter than serious talk from majority of them, none could point out the actual problem with the onetime hit group.
5five after winning ‘Double Awards’ at the Ghana Music Awards in 2008, that is New discovery of the year, Aphro pop song of the year and the 4SYTE Video award all with their hit single “African Girlz”, is 5Five going to be like Deeba, kokoveli, Keteke, among others.
Nothing has worked for the group so far, ‘PARTY’ was well spread in the schools, and on computers, but had little or no air play as compared to ‘African Girlz’.
‘GH, are you ready, let me see your five fingers in the air, your five fingers in the air’ and you know what continues, or the popular Yeah! Is double 5five in the building, has been missed a lot not just the fans but every music lover in the country.
5five, yeah, GH is ready with our five fingers in the air waiting for it to come down the very day you will resurrect.
