In a surprising new revelation, a prominent record producer, De Thompson DDT has shared insights into A-Plus' approach to his newly elected role as a Member of Parliament (MP), which may disappoint those hoping for a strong advocacy for the Creative Arts Industry.

According to the producer, despite his previous support for the sector, A-Plus has expressed doubts about his ability to bring significant change, stating that only the Minister of Creative Arts has the authority to offer help to the industry.

A-Plus, who won a seat in Parliament during the most recent elections, has been a vocal figure in the entertainment industry for years.

Known for his sharp criticism of governmental policies affecting the arts and his efforts to speak out on various social issues, many hoped that his political career would provide a platform to address long-standing challenges in Ghana’s Creative Arts Industry.

Issues such as inadequate funding, lack of infrastructure, and insufficient policy support have long plagued the sector.

However, according to the record producer, A-Plus made it clear that his primary focus in Parliament is not specifically geared toward the Creative Arts Industry.

"A-Plus told me directly that only the Minister can offer help to the industry," the producer said. "He acknowledged that he does not have the power to make significant changes in this regard."

This revelation has raised eyebrows, with some within the industry expressing disappointment. For many, A-Plus' election seemed like a potential turning point for the Creative Arts Industry.

His reputation as a vocal critic of the government and his influence in the public sphere had made him seem like a natural advocate for the sector's issues.

Yet, the record producer's statement suggests that A-Plus might not prioritize the sector in his new political role, especially if he believes that his efforts alone won’t be enough.

The producer’s comments have left industry insiders questioning whether A-Plus' political journey will truly serve the interests of creatives or if it’s more about advancing his personal political career.

While it’s true that the Minister of Creative Arts plays a key role in addressing the sector's challenges, many in the industry were hoping that A-Plus would use his new position as MP to bring about systemic changes.

The need for better infrastructure, funding, and policies to protect and promote the work of Ghanaian creatives is critical, and many are still looking for a champion who will prioritize these issues.

As A-Plus settles into his new role, the question remains: will he use his platform as an MP to push for the Creative Arts Industry, or will his focus shift to other political priorities?

For now, the industry continues to watch and wait, hoping that the new MP will become a powerful voice for positive change. Whether or not A-Plus will fulfill these expectations remains to be seen.
