Celebrated music producer Mr. Fred Kyei Mensah has taken a swiper at persons who have slammed actress Emelia Brobbey over a song she released recently.
Some social media users mocked the actress saying she did not qualify to be called a musician because her song was poorly done.
However, the music producer is of a different view saying the actress tried her best.

LEAVE EMELIA BROBBEY ALONE
I am not on any social media platform apart from Facebook and Whatsapp. I understand some people are trolling Emelia Brobbey because of a song she released on twitter, instagram, Facebook etc.
Yes! She might not be one of the gifted singers on the continent but I can confidently say with all my 36 years in the music industry as a professional sound engineer and over my 50+ years on this planet that, she tried her best.
We can criticize her vocal delivery on the song. It lacked dynamics and was raw. The instrumentation and the arrangements are a two-chord progression song of the doh and fah chords. It could have been better with the arrangements moving to other progressions.
The saxophone intro of her song has a resemblance to Diana Hamilton’s “Mo ne yo ” and Obaapa Christie’s “Wagye me” songs. I understand it came from the camp of one of the country’s great music producers and sound engineer, Dan Bassey whom i have so much respect for.
You might not appreciate the music maybe based on your perception about her being an actress and “forcing ” her way into music. Her lyrics are on point. With a good voice coach like Freeman Daniel Ame, she can be transformed. She has the potential if she would give herself ample time to learn the rudiments of music.
Let’s encourage her rather than asking her to quit music. Practice makes a man perfect. Emelia Brobbey, time will tell.
