Being one-time hitmaker doesn't mean you have no talent —Eduwodzi
VERY often, one-time hitmakers are considered not to have any talent but only had luck smile at them since they are unable to keep up the momentum of dropping bangers but Hiplife musician Eduwodzi debunks that.

Eduwodzi who treated Ghanaians to the ‘jamming’, Yenko Nkoaa, 10 years ago but is yet to match the standard he set believes it is unfortunate to describe onetime hitmakers as not gifted.
Speaking in an interview with Graphic Showbiz recently, Eduwodzi who has a new moniker, Doji Sonx, said a one-time hit did not necessarily mean a musician is not talented.
According to the artiste who doesn’t care if he is tagged a one-time hitmaker, there were a lot of musicians with special gifts who had just a hit song to their credit and it was probably because they branched into something else.
“It is not as if one-time hitmakers do not have what it takes to release more hit songs. I know a lot of talented musicians who came out with just one very good song and are now into other things. Such musicians can do it again if they decide to release a new song and push it with money.
“All you need is money to push a song. Even a bad song can become a hit within a short period with the promotion,” he said.
Eduwodzi who has been off the music radar revealed to Graphic Showbiz that he was prepared to start as a newcomer.
“I don’t mind if Ghanaians see me as an underground artiste. In fact, I want them to see me as such because I am starting my music career. I took the opportunity to study a lot of things in the music industry while I was away.

“I was young and not fully mature in the music business when I released Yenko Nkoaa so I had to go back to learn a lot of things and I am glad I did. It has been 10 years since Yenko Nkoaa and it has been learning music business,” he said.
Eduwodzi is out with a new song, My Ex, recorded by Gigs and released three weeks ago. The song is about a lady who was unappreciative of whatever her boyfriend did for her and eventually dumped him only to realise she has made the biggest mistake of her life because the grass was not greener on the other side.
