  • Music in Ghana is now tainted with corruption – Reggie Rockstone

    Music in Ghana is now tainted with corruption – Reggie Rockstone

    Legendary Ghanaian rapper Reggie Rockstone has disclosed that there is pervasive corruption in the country’s music business, with some musicians purportedly purchasing internet streams to increase their notoriety.

    Reggie Rockstone recently voiced concern on Property FM regarding Ghanaian musicians’ lack of real streaming numbers and their reliance on buying online streams to increase their notoriety.

    “We need to talk about the corruption that has crept into music these days; the enormous amount of streams some musicians receive are occasionally not real because they have streaming farms,” he stated.

    The hiplife icon revealed how the developers and innovators of well-known digital streaming services, like Spotify, are making enormous profits at the expense of the musicians themselves. He also added that the money made by those platforms’ users, especially those from other countries, goes towards supporting the people who created the platforms.

    He continued, “We have a lot of things that we have to look at because the white people are really enjoying our money out of the digital streaming platforms they have created like Spotify and the rest, they are really spending our money, and they always find a new way to rip.”

    Rapper and singer Black Sherif, who has won numerous awards, has enthralled fans with a tweet that reveals a dream that he has always had: marrying fellow Ghanaian musician Gyakie.

    “I proposed to Gyakie in my dream, and she accepted.” A week later, we were married; a year later, we had twins and travelled the world together. This is a sign, in my opinion. He went on, “Please tag her,” leaving fans to speculate as to whether this was wishful thinking or a cunning prod towards reality.

    Gyakie, whose real name is Jackline Acheampong, released her debut single in 2019 called “Love Is Pretty.” She has previously said that she is single and does not have any particular qualities in a partner; instead, she is more interested in a person’s overall vibe.

    Afronitaaa joined DWP in 2018, at the age of 14. She successfully combines dance and education and succeeds at both to the admiration of many. Today, we are all witnesses to the tremendous transformation DWP has had in her life and artistic career.

  • Understanding Shatta Wale will make managing him easier – Sammy Flex

    Understanding Shatta Wale will make managing him easier – Sammy Flex

    Managing Shatta Wale, one of Ghana’s most captivating and controversial musicians, is not as difficult as it may seem if one truly understands him, according to multiple award-winning Ghanaian broadcaster and manager Samuel Atuobi Baah, also known as Sammy Flex.

    The popular Ghanaian Dancehall artist’s manager, Flex, refuted claims that managing the “Melissa” hitmaker is challenging in an interview with Graphic Showbiz.

    Some believe it would be challenging to manage Shatta Wale because of the way he handled conflicts with his previous managers, Bulldog and Mr. Logic. Sammy Flex, however, dispelled these notions, stating that when the crooner is understood, he is not difficult to work with.

    If you understand Shatta Wale, managing him is not that hard. It is up to the person managing him; all you need to do is comprehend him and give him the benefit of the doubt. If there is mutual respect, you can work with him for a very long time. His private life is not my business.

    It is impossible to dictate to someone like Shatta Wale what actions to take or refrain from taking. He knows what strategies work for him and how to play the game. All I have to do is encourage him to pursue his dreams and offer advice on anything he wants to do. We get along well; I have known him for a long time, even before I started working with him,” he remarked.

    The prolific broadcaster responded, “I just hope and pray that it does not come to that,” when asked how he would feel if the singer ever treated him like Bullgod and Mr. Logic, his two former managers. I am the calm kind that can deal with a person like Shatta Wale. Nothing like that happened when he was managed by Chris Koney, Nana Dope, Willy Wale, or Kofi Boat.

    “I think they had problems, but none of what has been happening has happened because of the respect they had for one another. He continued, “I think there will always be fireworks because Shatta Wale is an extrovert, and his former managers Bullgod and Mr. Logic are also extroverts.

    According to Moesha Boduong, people are free to behave however they please, but the reality of ruining someone else’s partner never goes away.

    We pretend whatever Moesha said is not happening, but it’s happening, and we are all not happy and proud about it, but I got the courage to share my story, and through that, God listened to me and said, My daughter, I’m going to use you to change the world,” she said on TV3.
