<h1>In an interview with Kingdom FM, he noted that artistes often depend on performances to earn money to survive. <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/celebrities/only-lazy-men-are-worried-about-dating-marrying-ambitious-women-keche/5748hdl">Keche Andrew urged Ghanaians </a>to recognise that such performances are usually just business decisions.</h1>

<p><em>“I still see people and presenters chastising artistes because they performed at a political rally,”</em> he said. “<em>In this industry, music is our work and we need platforms with good money to help us produce good music. </em></p>

<p><em>Those people talking, they have what is paying them, but some artistes get shows once every three or four months. So they shouldn't be hindered because of the fear of being tagged as being affiliated to that party.”</em></p>

<p>Keche Andrew pointed out that <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/celebrities/daddy-lumba-owes-us-popular-businessman-calls-out-the-legendary-singer-watch/gvgt8qt">legendary musician Daddy Lumba</a> has performed songs for the NPP but has also been seen socialising with NDC leaders. He expressed hope that Ghanaians will eventually reach a similar level of understanding.</p>

<p>Keche Andrew also advised fellow artistes to seize opportunities to perform at political events if the money is good and can help secure their future. </p>

<p><em>"If the money is good and can be used to start a business and build a future for oneself, take it,"</em> he stated.</p>

<p>He encouraged artistes to make their own choices regarding campaign songs, as long as the earnings can <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/celebrities/my-wife-must-pay-if-she-wants-to-use-our-song-for-campaign-keche-andrew-reveals/kjwnsw5">support their families and improve their lives.  </a></p>
