Ghanaian dancehall musician, Stonebwoy reunited with his former beat producer, Beatz Dakay. Moreover, Beatz Dakay was behind all his hit songs which eventually won him a BET award in 2015. They finally made peace and ended their feud.

Their musical connection was one of a kind. Therefore, many thought Stonebwoy was going to be a flop after ditching Beatz Dakay. He left Dakay for his protege, Awaga.

In a new photo on Stonebwoy’s Snapchat handle, the duo was seen recording a new song.

The previous rift between the ‘Mane Me’ hitmaker and the award-winning sound engineer was due to money. This was prior to the fact that the BHIM President did not pay him well for the songs Dakay produced that brought in lots of money.

The reconciliation with Dakay comes just a few days after Stonebwoy hinted about leaving Nana Appiah Mensah’s Zylofon Media label.

Kumawood actor, Sumsum Ahuof3 talks about her life experiences. Moreover, he spoke about growing up in the streets of Kumasi after he traveled miles from his hometown, Nkronza in Brong Ahafo region. He stated that that experience was one that he will never forget. This is because of the challenges he faced.

Furthermore, he disclosed after his migration to Kumasi, he slept in an empty container shop. This was whenever the owner of the place he was staying came back with his family. The actor also revealed that whereas he was wasting away in this container shop every night, a very wealthy uncle of his lived in a very plush house a few meters away from where he was sleeping.

The host asked why he didn’t request to stay at the house of this uncle. Sumsum stated that he felt the uncle didn’t owe him that sort of obligation. He added emphatically that he had the strong conviction that the failure of his dad with regard to the fulfillment of his as a father did not give him the license to trouble the wealthy uncle.

He stated that the best he could do was just hang out in the plush house, find some food to eat, water to drink and go back and sleep in his container bedroom.

Ghanaian gospel musician, Obaapa Christy talks about the challenges she face in her life. She spoke about this in an interview with B Ice of Agyenkwa FM.

Moreover, she revealed that her current hit song ‘W’asue Me’ is basically a testimony. It’s a testimony of the Lord throughout her over thirteen-years music career.

Furthermore, she revealed that for the most part she had a very bumpy road. She disclosed that at some point in time, she sold toffees, kenkey, ice cream and other things at the Suame magazine. That was the only way she could get something to eat.

The award-winning musician further revealed that prior to her selling at the popular magazine, she used to trek to one village in the hinterlands to sell for her parents because they were informed that even though the place looked very poor, the residents there were the best in buying of goods.

She was in the studios of Agyenkwa FM about her upcoming album launch. The launch takes place on March 17 at the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), Adenta Frafraha.

Proceeds from the album launch will be used to support the poor and the needy. According to Obaapa Christy, anyone who would make it to the album launch would never leave the place the same.

Radio presenter, Austine Woode talks about Prez Nana Addo’s ‘State Of the Nation Address’. Moreover, he penned down a letter stating emphatically that Catherine Afeku was the wrong choice for the position. Madam Catherine Afeku is the minister of Tourism and Creative Arts.

Austine Woode is a popular radio presenter with EIB’s Abusua FM in Kumasi. Furthermore, he stated she has not helped the sector at all.

Austine Woode about appointment of Catherine Afeku

President Akufo Addo since becoming President in 2017 has shown a great to improve the fortunes of the creative arts industry. This contributes massively to the Ghanaian economy. Since the start of the 4th republic, no Ghanaian Presidential candidate has had more creative arts players endorsing his candidature than President Akufo Addo.

The President has on countless occasions reiterated his commitment to make the industry a bigger one. However, I believe the appointment of Madam Catherine Afeku as Minister for Tourism and Creative arts was a wrong move. This move will hinder the progress the industry so much needs.

On the 4th of January, 2019, I covered the launch of the rehabilitation of the Kumasi Cultural center’s “Apatakesie ase”. At the said event, Ghanaian movie actor Bill Asamoah asked Minister Catherine Afeku

“Madam we know the NPP promised in its manifesto for 2016 to construct an ultra-modern theatre in every regional capital except Accra. Please is this the one we are launching here or that one is different?”

Madam Catherine Afeku in answering stated categorically that they were 2 different projects and industry players should be calm because the theatres promised in their 2016 manifesto will also be delivered. The representative of the Bantamahene also said we in the Ashanti region should be grateful to the NPP gov’t for taking the bold step to renovate the “Apatakesie ase” and will trust the Minister to deliver the manifesto theatre in the future.

Rest of his post

During the SONA2019, President Akufo Addo said: “The Eastern Regional Theatre has been completed, and work is currently ongoing towards the construction of the Kumasi theatre”. I will like to respectfully tell the President that what he told Parliament is not true

The renovation of the Eastern Region cultural center is never a construction of a theatre as the President sort to say. Also to link that with Kumasi and say the Kumasi theatre is currently ongoing is not a true representation of facts. There’s no construction of a theatre currently ongoing in Kumasi so what was the President referring to.

From the above, is President Akufo Addo telling Ghanaians that renovation is equal to construction? No, because after the SONA2019, Adom TV interviewed Madam Catherine Afeku. She said what they promised in the manifesto is finished and on paper. So Madam when will the one on paper materialize and what briefing did the President get to say the Eastern Regional theatre had been completed?

How come the sector minister keeps saying something different from what the President told the whole country? Is the President really the man in charge? Is he still passionate about the creative arts industry like he showed in opposition? Or he only needed the endorsement of the industry players? Madam Catherine Afeku has failed the President and has failed to improve the industry. Mr. President sack her or apologize for not telling Ghanaians the truth. God bless our homeland Ghana and make our nation great and strong.

Kumawood actor, Yaw Dabo talks about the issues she had with Sarkodie. Morever, she revealed that his ‘feud’ with the boss of Sarkcess Music, Sarkodie is no more. This is because they recently met to settle their differences.

Furthermore, Dabo stated that Sarkodie got in touch with him to look for an amicable solution to his problem. This happened a few days after he spoke about his displeasure. His displeasure was about the manner they treated him after he shot a video for Sarkodie. Therefore, his displeasure went viral and caught his (Obidi’s) attention.

Also, Dabo heaped praise on the award-winning rapper. He made the point that Sarkodie knows what he is about musically. Sark is also one of the most reasonable and wise people in the Ghanaian music industry. This is due to the manner he approached him after the news broke is something he didn’t actually expect.

The genesis started when Yaw Dabo revealed in a chit-chat with Nana Romeo of Accra FM that he felt ‘Can’t Let You Go’ hitmaker did not act right by him when he failed to give him a call to say’ thank’ you after he took ‘just’ GH 1,000 to shoot his popular ‘Gboza’ video, an amount he does not take under normal circumstances for a video shoot.

Also, to prove her point, she stated that when she dies her coffin should be in the NDC colours. To her, she’s been a lover of the party before turning eighteen. Therefore, she cannot fathom why people would spread false information that she is fed up with the party and that it is us.

The host asked why the NDC colours for the coffin. Her answer was “because I love them”.

Tracey Boakye further revealed that her mother who is a lover of the New Patriotic Party has never questioned why her daughter supports NDC because she knows very well that she, Tracey is a die-hard fan of the umbrella party.
