Ghanaian rapper, Lyrical Joe
Ghanaian rapper, Joseph Gamor popularly known as Lyrical Joe has expressed his frustration with what he describes as a “cult-like” fanbase in the Ghana music industry.
In an interview on Hitz FM on July 8, 2025, Lyrical Joe noted that music lovers who are blindly enthused over a particular musician tend to breed corruption and unhealthy competition in the creative industry.
According to him, fanbases should stop the “cult-like” culture in Ghana’s music scene.
“This is not loyalty. This is blind loyalty you are beyond loyalty. Loyalty doesn’t mean you can’t speak the truth. The fact that I am loyal to my boss doesn’t mean if he says someone stole something, it means it is true. That is corruption,” he said.
When asked if he has been able to resolve his difference with Amerado, Lyrical Joe noted that even though Andy Dosty settled their rap feud, he is not on talking terms with Amerado like he used to.
“It’s been a while since we spoke. Godfather Andy Dosty pulled a call through and we spoke concerning the beef and we left it there. But I wouldn’t say we are tight like we used to be,” he added.
