Ghanaian artiste, Elorm Adablah, better known as E.L has slammed those who are against efforts to revive azonto music in Ghana.

The ‘Kaalu’ coroner joined forces with rap king Sarkodie in an attempt to resurrect the once vibrant azonto music genre in Ghana.

In an interview on GBC Radio Central in Cape Coast, host of the show, Amansan Krakye asked E.L what he thinks might be the motive behind the people who claim that azonto is dead and cannot be revived.

He remarked “Such people want to listen to Nigeria afrobeat. Those people are not patriotic citizens because azonto comes from Ghana.

“Saying that azonto which belongs to Ghana is dead and cannot be revived is like rejecting your own child and those people making such claims, God will surely deal with them.

“By God’s grace my azonto songs are doing well and I heard people are loving the vibes and dancing to the azonto movement.

“We’re reviving it gradually because I have been hearing more people releasing azonto songs and more notifications of azonto enthusiasts both here and abroad.

“So the thing is not a one day event because when you’re doing a good thing it takes a while and we pray Ghanaians will continue to embrace our efforts in trying to revive azonto”.
