A few musicians have so far come out to publicly ‘confess’ that music is no longer paying.

Hence there’s the need to be smart and venture into a business to sustain one’s source of livelihood.

A few have already set the record straight by combining music with other businesses.

Samini has ventured into onion plantation, Hammer and Bandex are into bread, D-Black owns a night club and the list goes on.

The newest to add to the family is hiplife artiste Tic, formerly Tic Tac, who is now into Pork and pizza business.

In an interview on eTV Ghana’s Late Nite Celebrity show, Tic revealed that he has ventured into the food business, shifting from the nightclub business.

“I’ve shifted from the nightclub business, I’m now into food business. I sell food, I sell pizza, I sell chicken hot wings, I sell bongo pork and bongo goat, he said.

Tic further reveals that he ventured into this business during his break from music.

“You can’t do this for 25 years and still be in people’s faces, a lot can happen to get you down. When that happens, I take music off and do something else to get money into my pocket,” he added.

Award-wining hip life musician, Tic Tac is fuming about the behaviour of most of the young artistes.

According to the him, some of the young musicians do not respect the old ones who made their mark in the industry back in the day.

“Most of the young musicians don’t respect us. I mean we who made a mark in the music industry those days” he fumed.

“These days some artistes are popular and trendy because of social media so they don’t respect but when it comes to music data it counts a lot, I’m saying this because the level of disrespect is too much,” added.

Speaking to Doctor Cann on Happy FM’s Showbiz Xtra, Tic Tac mentioned Shatta Wale’s as one of the young people who doesn’t respect him, saying that, Shatta Wale once described him as not being smart.

The ‘Kangaroo’ hit singer further explained “you would hear Shatta Wale speaking against Ex Doe in an interview, Can you also imagine the Same Shatta Wale revealing in an interview that me Tic Tac I’m not smart,” he angrily told the host on Happy FM.

Tic Tac, known in real life as Nana Kweku Duah also added “If you don’t praise me today in respect to what I have done for the industry. I won’t praise you tomorrow. That is the other of the day in this country. No disrespect is going to function in this industry” he declared.

Tic Tac is also reported to have said that, Shatta Wale shouldn’t have been invited to the Flagstaff house because of his behaviour.
