Many are saying music duo, DopeNation and Rapper EL sound soo similar. According to many, now you hear songs from DopeNation thinking those songs belong to EL. Listen to ‘Eish’, you would think that song belongs to EL, but no, it’s for DopeNation.
EL was on Zylofon FM, and when asked by the host, Sammy Flex whether he’s also heard people saying DopeNation sounds like him, he said,
“oo DopeNation, these are my boys since when they were in Legon till now. We sound soo similar but i don’t mind. I also got my style from somebody; the way i arrange my songs, how i approach my songs, all these i got that style from somebody and so DopeNation getting their style from me, is normal, I’m ok”.
When asked why he didn’t sign DopeNation under his management, he said,
“Yes, I don’t believe in Artistes Signing their fellow Artistes under them. It stifles the creativity of the artiste that has been signed and put unnecessary pressure on the Artiste that signed his fellow artiste too”
“Creatives should have the freedom to operate, when you are signed under someone, they would give you timeline; you have to release this number of albums under so-so and so year, you have to do this, you have to do that, and if you sign artiste under you, you would also go through pressure from the Public, ‘oo why is it that this artiste you signed under you isn’t blowing, and more.’
