Ghanaian RnB music artiste, Richard Mensah known in showbiz as Richie (the beat maker) has descended on critics who accuse musicians of living lives not worthy of emulation in society.
Richie in an interview with 'The Weekend Moment' said because most musicians are entertainers and encourage fun life, �people normally think that we [musicians] do the bad things that happen in the society�.
According to him, the assertion that musicians are smokers, drunkards and womanizers are untrue stating that singers are human beings just like others, so if they smoke he does not have the mandate to stop them but there are politicians, doctors and teachers who do smoke yet the public do not condemn their actions but rather tarnish the image of singers. He added that though some musicians smoke does not mean all musicians smoke, �just that our lives seem to be fun.
The RnB singer who is also a sound engineer noted that in this computer era, most guys cheat on their girlfriends so when they see musicians cheating on a girl they tend to describe all musicians as cheaters.
