- Welcome to the first official episode of my documentary series called "MADE BY US" featuring one of Africa's biggest content creators, Kwadwo Sheldon, from Ghana. Last summer, I met Sheldon and we spoke for hours about how he started Kwadwo Sheldon Studios during the Covid lockdown period. This is second part of our conversation where talks about how he was tagged by some Ghanians as a Sell-Out due to his controversial stance. Watch part 1 here: • How A Ghanaian Is Buil...
The goal of "Made By Us" is to shine a spotlight on individual African and Black entrepreneurs and creatives whose work has significantly contributed to our collective story as a people. Their impact extends beyond borders, reshaping cultural narratives both on the continent and in the diaspora. Originally focusing on creative figures, we are now broadening the scope to encompass all contributions within Black and African culture, including entrepreneurs and similar influencers.

Thank you!
Ghana and Nigeria are not rivals, no way. People must appreciate the size of our Nigeria and the uniqueness of the people
How some Nigerians still entertain people from that country beats me.
I swear we need to boycott them they Love stealing our glory , they have colonizers mind set .
@@wigcap7012 + Isn’t it obvious? I mean Ghana 🇬🇭 to be more explicit.
That's because reality and propaganda are two different things. Most if the issues in Nigeria are blown out of proportion
Ghana is literally excluding Nigeria's music and artistes from their space, and you are still taking it lightly!
@@DogonYaro-yk6rq we do not need them , we are more than 250m people and the world loves our music so to hell with them .
We are no rivals. Nigeria is a big brother
Which sounds did you created? Who created it? Where? When? You be mumu Sheldon.
I Wonder ooooo
Afrobeat. Fella went to Ghana and got inspired by the the music, like highlife music.
When he came back to Nigeria he created Afrobeat
@christiandeluxe4577 Fela came to Ghana for music business because of the common lingua "English" and the culture closer to that of Nigerians? He used Afrobeat to be accepted in Africa and diaspora. The result of his efforts and ingenuity which none of your Ghanaians artists Old and new can never achieve.
@@christiandeluxe4577😂😂😂This is why you guys are silly. Fela studied music in London, traveled worldwide and you think you are the source is silly. Which of your artist studied music? You're not the source of Afrobeat. Yoruba artists have never used highlife style. We have our own genre
I like this guy, everyone can be a champion in their town.
No lies detected.
You like him b'cos he is selling out his country? kwagyimi
@@gmog7857 wey selling out
I as a Nigerian i play Ghana music. De most played song in my phone is toxic love city from black sherif. I think de problem with Ghanaians is dey don't want to learn.
One thing Sheldon fails to understand is that u cannot wish for people what they don’t wish for themselves.. their dreams might just be to make music and take care of themselves and family they might not really want to fill arena and all of that
If you don't have something say keep quiet.. which sound do nigeria refined? Ôde
Hahahaha lol
My brother, Ghana created every genre, from Afrobeats, Rap, dancehall, raggae, and Amapiano, very soon a country will bring out a new genre, Ghana will come and claim they created it.
All Sheldon's fans where are you??
You said we should subscribe and like the video. Bro I'm a proud Nigerian NO!!
Great
Thank you
Please preach this
We don't have to feed the enemies
Love Kwadwo Sheldon, he is self made and killing the game!!! Young Ghanaians should sit their asses down and learn from him.
Sheldon is flexing big time in London!
Even the British Prime Minister " Rishi" walked by him in 16:10.
Kwadwo has gone nuclear 😂😂😂!
👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!!!
This man, should lead Ghana music industry, he knows the problem
Love me some Sheldon ❤ If you like misyarn😅 we love you like that ❤ 🇳🇬 🎉
You don’t have a sound yeye set of people always we did it first wereyyyyyyy
You can see what South Africans are doing collaborating with Nigerians now Amapiano is known everywhere even if they don't like us they've have no choice 😂..but then again let's just collaborate with each other and make good music and continue putting AFRICA ON THE MAP❤
Who is 'us'? that Sheldon is referring to? Please refer to Nigerian as Nigerian not 'us'. Nigerian are African but we are Nigerian first and foremost.
I really hope that Nigerians and Ghanaians can unite one day.🤝🏾
The unity I see amongst Africans in America is beautiful and makes Americans respect Africans more as there is power in numbers!! I hope to one day see more unity in Africa and Afrobeat.🙂
@@BlackPositivityChallenge Nigerians sef never unite well yet 😂😂😂
I don't like him anymore. His hateful disposition during the last AFCON was diabolical and upsetting.
He acted like an evil spirit that rose to pull down Nigeria and I still find his actions back then to be disturbing when I remember it.
He’s actually an amazing guy. Filming this video was the first time we’d ever met after being introduced by a mutual. We sparked it off immediately.
That was just football banter. Don’t forget, we were also trolling other countries then. lol. But the video wan pain me too sha.
He’s a correct guy though. I can tell you that! It’s not personal, just banter
@@YemiOladapo
It's a lie. The hate from Ghanaians is very real and not something we should joke with.
What he saw was that we would take away the one thing they are superior to us about, and that brought out his demons. I can't forget his devilish laughter after we lost
@@YemiOladapo
His inconsistency makes me uncomfortable. Today he's acting like a brother, the next moment u find him being a typical toxic and envious Ghanaian. I won't trust him if I were you.
@@YemiOladapo he will be an amazing guy to you ,since your aim is selfish just to tap into his followers, whatever he said or do doesn't matter to set of unpatriotic people
why is ghana always attaching themselves to anything that concerns, which sound are they part of?, just dey play
Saying that Nigerians do not support Ghanaian music is completely incorrect. Nigerians stream Ghanaian music the most-please Google the facts. Nigerians support their own artists as well as others. We stream more Ghanaian songs than Ghanaians do. This is a fact.
I totally agree with u bro. I'm Ghanaian, my people talk too much with jealousy nd bitterness. True
Do Nigerians owe ghanians support? Must we support them? Aren't Ghana a sovereign nation? Why are they always complaining that we don't support them?
I don't understand what is wrong with Nigerians men!! I mean what is wrong with this guy!! The guy is sitting there telling the Nigerian man we started this!! There was no push back from him. If you're a Nigerian watching him and you don't see anything wrong with that, shame on you!! Please Ghanaians show us the video of your people singing Afrobeat in the 70s because we Nigerians have the video!!
Sometimes, it's best to let sleeping dogs lie. They are like dogs barking at a lion; the lion shouldn't be concerned. We are the giant of Africa like it or hate it. We keep rising
Next, watch this space for Nigeria breaking forth in tech like India. Tens of thousands of youths are presently in boot camps. Then you will wonder why.
Dem go cry blood
Nigerians never tapped into Ghana's sound!
Nigerian's sound Afrobeats ia from Nigeria!
It's the laziness and reluctance to build something for themselves but piggyback off hardwork and sucess of Nigerians is why they keep pushing these false narratives that Nigerians took Afrobeats from Ghana!
Yes.... The post on x brought me here 😂❤
I used to like this KS, but I realized that he is a top hater of Nigerians
Sheldon is actually an amazing guy trust me. He always shows his love and admiration for Nigeria
@@YemiOladapoHe hates and envies Nigerians. Don't try to portray him as a saint because he granted you an interview. The fact remains that he do not like Nigerians. His envy and hate for Nigerians is written all over him.
@@YemiOladapoHe's a pretender. Nigerians now know better. Alot of us unsubscribed from his channel.
@@YemiOladapodey play na snake oh
Hate???
Which sounds Ghanian created Nigerian globalize it?
Highlife music
@@Africaly_ Highlife is not Ghanaian sound, it's from Sierra Leone originally known as palm wine music. Read up on it
@@Omenastudios Nah, you should rather read abt Highlife music. It originated in Ghana b4 Sierra Leone adopted nd called it Palm wine music. Highlife music started in the late 1880's while palm wine music started in the 1950's. Do ur research. Your hatred for Ghana can never make u distort history.
Ghana keep dragging everything, still you music is no were to be found in Global world
@@youtubeplaylistalonge2286 + That’s what desperadoes do. 👉😁🤣😆😀😄😁
Usually when Nigerians move the first people they call are Ghanaians.
But when Ghanaians get there the fiist thing they are invested in is how to bring down Nigerians and replace them.
If Nigerians are wise, they better run!
Showing Ghana way is like Samson telling Delilah the source of his power!
Yemz your video shooting is very intelligent, and smart 4 real.. that is what i love in this holl things...😅
You're the source of the sound?which sound did we run the same culture or same language, unah mumu never do,we don't do any sounds from ghana, what we simply have is our culture, swag ,pigin English, our own traditional instruments with western instruments nothing at all is from ghana in our way of life,music so let it sink ok??ghana did not have any invention that nigeria could or have tapped on
Bro no need to get in your feelings . A lil history lessons will go a long way
@@edscorner2827What history are you talking about, Ghanaians always create history to make themselves happy with nothing to show up.
@@edscorner2827which useless history are you talking about, go and create your original sound and leave other people sound
Pls tell me any of your top 3 artist who doing afrobeat . Is it sarkodie, shatta wale or stone boy or regie rockstone or samini all this artist are the biggest in ghana and they all do dance hall, raggae or rap, So where is the afrobeat history in ghana . You should be ashame
@@ukedavid7442 I see comprehension is also a problem for you peeps . Haha I’m not gonna waste my time with people who only know to shout insults. Go learn some manners
I AGREE!!🤷🏾♀️
💡The wise will ALWAYS take great advice/influence even if it is given with an insult. This is how you LEVEL-UP & even SURPASS!!💡
He reminds me of the Kanye West of Africa..ENERGY ON 10!!😃😆
Sheldon’s Energy is 100, i definitely see the Kanye angle. 😂
Thanks for comment!
As a Nigerian, the problem I c with Ghana music industry is that they have diverse artist but they dont have diverse producers. Just my opinion.
Which sound did you guyz create? Afrobeat? Abeg when are your guys going to take a chillboill on this subject
It will not happen until the likes of sarks and the rest start bringing in the newest talents into the industry.
Oga, you arent the source of the sound, stop deceiving yourself with false narrative. All your Ghanaian GOs arent afro pop.
I fully support Kwadwo Sheldon on this one. In Ghana we have some of the finest musicians and some of the best sound engineers like e.g Nektunez but we do not hear much about them. I think we should work on the marketing and the advertising side more to promote the Ghana Music Industry🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭❤❤❤❤
Can Ghana musicians pay those sound producers? Nigeria artists pay huge amount to music and sound producers to make it global
That is another problem some of them do not want to spend money to produce their music. Mean while "you catch fish with fish right"?
If it is about population...... why are you not jaming to a song from China that has 1.7 billion population? Why are you not jaming to Indian songs with 1.5 billion people ? Population arguments is nonsense
The answer is clear. They are more talented. Simple as that
Na when Ghanaians wan retire from this conversation sef? Una no dey tire?
This guy na weyrey. Dem suppose beat am. Na to dey critisize, wetin himself done do. 💀
Bro said they are the source, like say Fela no go other countries, Fela even studied music in London and London is not claiming him
Ghana no dey for this us wey this guy dey talk
Some I wonder why I hear Nigerian don't support Ghanaian music its funny in Nigeria we listen all good music across all African countries. Many Ghanaian hit music was a hit in Nigeria anyone doubting should come and verify
What does he mean that they are the source. Even the man that u guys claim to be the originator came on live radio and said fela started afrobeat that fela always push them do away with dancehall and create our own music before he started the afrobeat.
Pls Ghanaian, name one Ghanaian afrobeat singer in Ghana from past to present.
Good interview but the sitting arrangements in relation to the camera is not good at all. It affects the viewers point of view. If you put another camera facing him directly, and switch time to time, it would have been better.
Thanks a lot for the comment and feedback!
We will put that into consideration for the upcoming episodes.
I filmed this independently last summer and production has gotten better since this. Please subscribe for the upcoming episodes. Thanks
What makes you the source of the sound. Please stop talking shit
Sheldone you ate lying you are not the sauce of the Sound you all love lying 🤥.
As a Nigerian I have to admit that Ghana plays an equal if not a more major role in the development of Afro beats. However, you cannot discount the huge population of Nigeria all over the world. I think Ghanaian artists have to collaborate more with their Nigerian counterparts. Jealousy and fighting won't solve anything.
The population argument can be flawed tho. There are countries like Jamaica with little population in comparison to larger nations and they have heavily influenced global music for decades now. What are your thoughts on that?
@@YemiOladapo I think the Jamaicans came into their own before the advent of the internet. Nowadays, it will be difficult for any Jamaican artist to fill any arena in the West. The Internet and Social media has changed everything, only Nigeria can muster the kind of following to fill out arenas.
The key is to follow those who know road ; jealousy and complaining will not get you anywhere. First, Ghana must understand that Nigerians are not their competition. Nigeria is bigger and more advanced in entertainment. The Grammy Awards are not going to change their criteria for us, so stay focused and keep progressing, not complaining. Nigerians support their own and others. Stay positive. We stream more Ghanaian music than Ghanaian, that is a fact.
Ghana no do any shit ok......the only thing ghanians do best is jealousy nothing more........
Development of what??
Do me a favor please shut up
Sheldon, Ghana created nothing about Afrobeats and will never know anything about afrobeats, everything he is saying “us” stop trying to share Nigeria glory, why is this Nigeria guy talking with him about afrobeats, why is Sheldon saying Ghana should learn from Nigeria, I thought Ghana created and taught Nigeria Afrobeats.
I don’t think he said ghana created afrobeat
@@akandeoluwafemi2869 He just said it here, didn’t you hear him said we took afrobeats and refined it.
Recently, Blako is not making the king of songs that will take him far. King Promise, and Stoneboy is doing better.
We are the same people. Remove the languages and names you won’t differentiate. How do you know Chinese ? They look the same cos they are related with one ancestor. The same goes for Nigeria and Ghana. Africans must choose one africna. Language that we all can speak without having to communicate with language of mzungus. We must have an African identity expressed in one unifying African language.
People like you promoted Nigerian music. It's very difficult to hear ghanaian music played in Nigeria. I'm married to a Nigerian woman so i know what am talking about. Come to Ghana, Nigeria music everywhere and you are expecting Ghana music to blow? Ghana so called DJs will prefer to play Nigeria music than Ghana. Ghanaians are the promoters of Nigeria music. See how ghanaians worship Nigeria criminalities in Ghana but ask the likes of Sarkodie, Stoneboy and the rest how they were treated in Nigeria.
*GOD:* Ghana, why is your music not global?
*Ghana:* Nigeria! Nigeria! Nigeria!
*GOD:* I created a big, wide world. Go and seek your own glory!
*GOD:* Sarkodie, you have been in the game for a long time. Why is your music not global?
*Sarkodie:* Burna Boy. Davido. Olamide. Wizkid.
*GOD:* What!?
Wait ooh, is it that ghana don't know any other Africa countries names except for Nigeria
The Reason Why we Ghanain Are Not there. Our Local Musicals Are Forgotten Back 70s 80s and 90s. This were Nigerian's Easily work On. They're Really sell Out Local Musicals To The world To Nigerian's outside and the up coming Musician add up the old and new to sell out. Ask Normal Ghanain Your Naming Ceremony who will you Call. ? Mostly Play sound but Nigerian's will spend Millions to flight local Nigerian Music To Europe to Play 😅 just Kindly Go Back To The Older Sounds And Blend it Really With New Once. And Stop Calling your self High Life music. More Sounds Are selling out. More Even Nigerian's Are Afro beat but Omo even India sounds dey Inside
Ghanians hmmmm
That boy called black Sherif he's good artist but believe me as a Nigeria He go no anywhere because He disappoint me are use to be he fans not anymore.
Chaiiiii😆😆😆as the come to learn, nigeria will be far gone😅 and take over everything 😆😆 no let naija come in oooo, dey go collect am till you pursue yourself😅😅😅
The sound is not yours Ghanaians should stop 🛑 lying about them creating the Nigeria sound that lies narrative has to stop 🛑
This guy I will never put my finger to subscribe for him....he talk as if the has been bribed....
We never tap in to your songs never , there noting u all do that nigeria will want to copy . No Nigerian should collaborate with enemy’s.
This guy wanted ti gain something...i dont trust him
Why is this man so obsessed with Nigeria? Na wah o
Ghana ,if you want to learn ,learn from the best. Learn from the USA or Europe. Everyone around the world learnt from these Americans and that the best way to go.
Shut up and start doing, they don't have time for plenty talks.
Such nonsense!!! Now you be adviser to Gh??? Go learn from Wode
My people nigerias population is over a 120 million people and they've been in the entertaining business a very long time. Please don't compare. Just celebrate we all African..chaiii
This boy is greedy I don't like him and I don't like him talking about Nigeria
You people ghana talking too much.
You and who gyimii saa what have you contribute gyimii saa ofui
You're a full you think only music and arts are the only can make Ghana success. Why Nigerians and Ghanaian think they are the only successful countries in the World 🌎. Both industry experts are not quite good to the world.
Ghana and Nigeria relaxed.
He is nobody in ghana forget your self
They have the population just like India anything dey do will work because they are everywhere noting special
