OPINION — It's an issue that's been lamented for decades among fans and stakeholders in the local music scene: Singapore radio just doesn't dedicate enough airtime to Singapore music.
On one side of the fence, people could argue that homegrown acts just don't bring in the listenership — people want to hear international hits and world-renowned artistes. On the other, it could be argued that Singaporeans aren't giving love to local music because they don't even get enough airplay on radio — thus preventing homegrown acts from taking off and going big beyond our borders.
