In a bold move to boost Sierra Leone’s music industry, media influencer and social activist Vickie Remoe has proposed a groundbreaking initiative to the government. Remoe advocates for a strategic investment of $3 million, aimed at propelling Sierra Leonean musicians to international acclaim, with the ultimate goal of securing Grammy nominations within the next five years.

Vickie emphasized, “Salone government should put down $3 million and say here Nashito, Vickie, Sho Cole, Tunex, you guys work together use this budget to make sure three artists from Sierra Leone are nominated for a Grammy in the next five years.”

Speaking passionately about the potential of Sierra Leonean artists, including Nashito, Vickie, Sho Cole, and Tunex, Remoe emphasized the need for a collaborative effort. The proposed budget would serve as a catalyst, fostering unity among these musicians to create world-class music that resonates globally.

Remoe’s visionary suggestion not only highlights the untapped talent within Sierra Leone’s music scene but also underscores the importance of governmental support in propelling artists onto the international stage. The $3 million investment is envisioned as a strategic fund, empowering artists to produce high-quality content, engage in international collaborations, and market their work effectively.

The initiative aims to position Sierra Leone as a formidable player in the global music industry and seeks to break barriers that have historically limited the international recognition of Sierra Leonean musicians. By setting the ambitious target of securing Grammy nominations within the next five years, Vickie Remoe envisions a future where Sierra Leonean artists are celebrated on the world stage, contributing to the cultural richness of the global music landscape.

As discussions surrounding the proposal unfold, the potential impact on Sierra Leone’s cultural identity and international presence is significant, marking a pivotal moment in the country’s artistic journey.
