Popular singer, Patoranking has lamented that music fans no longer enjoy good music.
In an interview with journalist Joey Akan, Patoranking admitted that he’s used to the traditional way of making music, which he said is contrary to what music fans want.
“The way I see music is very different. I still see it in the traditional way. You know, where you have to talk sense, preach through music. But I realise that people, regardless they just want to have fun. So okay, I’m trying to get used to it though,” he told Akan.
The reggae dancehall music star, who recently released Three, his third studio album, however noted that the poor modern music listening didn’t affect the creation of Three.
His words: “No. It did not because there’s no music I can’t make. I did a song called Champion. If you listen to that song—and every time I try to record those songs that make sense, I try to be futuristic in the sense that I want it to stand the test of time. Even Three, four years from when it was recorded, it would still play.
“For melodies, I try not to use what has been used. I try to sound in a way that I know that I may not sound like this in the next 12 records.”
