JUST IN: Dj Azonto Quits Music For Comedy

Ghanaian Amapaino sensation DJ Azonto says he has quit music to explore a career in comedy because most Ghanaian musicians are poor.

According to the ‘Fa No Fom’ hitmaker, he sees comedy as a lucrative venture and plans to headline some of the big comedy shows not only in Ghana but overseas.

Speaking in an interview over his decision to suddenly quit music, DJ Azonto said he was not getting the deserved financial gains from music, a major reason for taking the exit from music.

“I want to venture into comedy, where I will charge $100,000 as fees for any appearance I make. I am a versatile artist, and I want to explore my potential in comedy.

“I have always loved comedy, and I think many comedians are not funny enough, but seeing how I make people love entertainment, it will be good to focus on comedy,” he said.

DJ Azonto further revealed plans to make the official announcement for his next move on his mum’s birthday on which falls on August 14, 2024.

“I will make the comedy industry big because I have partners who are interested in investing in my talent, and my fans should not be disappointed in me doing music.

“I promise to make them happy with my comedy, and they should watch some hilarious shows in the near future,” he said.
