  • “Gospel artists are not angels; stop criticising them” – Obaapa Christy

    “Gospel artists are not angels; stop criticising them” – Obaapa Christy

    Well-known gospel performer from Ghana, Christiana Twene, better known by her stage name Obaapa Christy, has advised Ghanaians to pray for gospel musicians instead of harshly criticising them when they err.

    She asserts that gospel musicians who use music to preach the word of God are not infallible and that they are just like everyone else in that they are human.

    On Monday, January 29, 2024, the music diva stated in an exclusive interview with Graphic Showbiz that criticising gospel artists when they make mistakes is not the wisest course of action.

    “There is no need saying all sorts of things to dampen their spirits. I sometimes hear not too good comments about gospel musicians when their issues come up and they can be very disheartening.

    “Inasmuch as we are gospel musicians, we are mere mortals and we are bound to make mistakes too. Some media persons and Ghanaians dwell on the negatives instead of focusing on the positives. What is the point in rejoicing over someone’s downfall?” she questioned.

    The hitmaker of “Hyebre Sesafo” took advantage of the occasion to counsel her peers to value themselves in order to receive compensation commensurate with that of their secular counterparts, who are rumoured to negotiate better terms with event organisers.

    “I always tell people that if you value yourself, no event planner will give you whatever they want—instead, they will pay you what you are entitled to when they hire you to perform. I have been doing this for more than 20 years, accepting any payment at all. She remarked, “I am paid what I am entitled to because I am deserving of it.

    ‘I paid $750 for a premium review of my singathon’ – Afua Asantewaa reveals

    Journalist Afua Asantewaa Aduonum, who attempted a sing-a-thon in December 2023, has revealed that she and her management have paid for a sing-a-thon priority review.

    Afua disclosed in an interview with Joy Prime, a station based in Accra, that the verification process typically takes up to 12 weeks, which is why she decided to expedite it after waiting for two weeks. She claims that the $750 priority review will be completed in a matter of 1-4 days, whereas the standard review takes 12 weeks.

    “Because of the popularity of the event they requested for our files. After two weeks of waiting, we requested a priority review. The normal review takes not less or more than 12 weeks. But if you want it quick you pay an amount of money and they review your file within five working days.

    So that’s what we paid for. Officially, it’s $650 but when you are going to pay, you’ll need to pay some transaction fee so we did roughly $750,” she said.

    On December 24, 2023, Asantewaa began her vocal journey with the Sing-a-thon, a marathon singing endeavour that captivated audiences. After an incredible 126 hours and 52 minutes, the musical odyssey came to an end on December 29.

    During the holiday season, Afua Asantewaa’s sing-a-thon brought Ghanaians together by popularising Ghanaian music.

    I Began 3Music With An Idea And A Laptop – Baba Sadiq

    Sadiq Abdulai Abu, the driving force behind 3Media Networks and a prospective member of parliament for Okaikoi Central, recently shared the motivational story of his entrepreneurial journey. Sadiq started a strong media company that has made a lasting impact on the industry with just a laptop and an idea.

    Sadiq revealed his humble beginnings in a Twitter conversation that was sparked by a user who advised a barber to encourage young entrepreneurs rather than criticise them. He disclosed that the power of an idea and the simplicity of a laptop were pivotal to the founding of 3Media Networks.

    His story is not unlike the stories of many prosperous people who came from lowly beginnings and achieved their dreams. Sadiq’s narrative is a source of great inspiration, highlighting the transformational power of willpower, imagination, and unwavering pursuit of one’s objectives.

    Baba Sadiq announced his resignation as the CEO and Managing Director of 3Media Network, a ground-breaking company he started in 2017, on September 30, 2022. His legacy serves as both a monument to his business savvy and a sobering reminder that sometimes all it takes to start an empire is a laptop, a burning desire to succeed, and unwavering faith in one’s own abilities.
