Dancehall music is a genre of urban folk music which came out of Jamaica in the mid to late 1970s and is generally considered to be the direct predecessor of rap. The genre, in its most basic form, a deejay toasting (or rapping) over a riddim. Dancehall is also known as ‘bashment’, a term which can refer to either the music itself or a large party where dancehall music is played.

History Of Dancehall

Dancehall gets its name, predictably, from large halls or street spaces where deejays were setting up their sound systems.

As the idea of toasting, rather than just playing pre-recorded songs, became popular, many of the best deejays became household names in Jamaica and eventually throughout the music world. Some of the more popular early deejays were King Jammy, Shabba Ranks and Yellowman.

Dancehall music is by far the most popular music in Jamaica and has been for quite some time.

This genre of music has however traveled almost across the world and is highly enjoyed in most African countries including Ghana.

Of course, gone are the days where men left the care taking of their children entirely in the hands of their wives. The 21st century father knows how to fix and change a baby’s diaper.

‘Black’ they say is beautiful but these days, it looks like many women to be precise have a problem being black. For this reason, many have turned to bleaching creams which are now affectionately called ‘toning creams’ in order to become light skinned. Recently a ban was placed on all bleaching creams making way into our markets but could this be a total solution to this phenomenon?.

In recent times, we learn many things from social media but one may ask, what has social media got to do with this article. Well, not only has our social media got something to do with this but our celebrities as well. Many people these days spend much time admiring, liking or commenting on posts from celebrities whether on Instagram, facebook, snapchat, whatsapp among others.

This is therefore to say that, celebrities do have major influences on the lives of individuals especially the youths these days. You may either call them your your ‘mentors’ or ‘Role Models’. We turn to look up to them in so many ways including dress styles, hairstyles, skin colour, way of speaking just to mention a few.

But is being light skinned the only way  to make people like or notice you?  Ghafla.com has run a resaech and has come out with many celebrities who are black skin but are still very noticeable and undoubtedly beautiful.

Ama K. Abebrese

Having spent a greater part of her life abroad, one may wonder why this beautiful and gorgeous actress has not defied her skin. She has stayed true to her colour up to now.

Roselyn Ngisah

With her complexion, Roselyn is no doubt a typical definition of a black beauty. She could have also bleached or toned but here she is still glowing in her black beauty.

Yvonne Okoro

This lady is not only beautiful but classic as well. Her name has never been left out of the long list of ‘men’s celebrity crash’ but is she not black skinned?

Ebony Reigns

Got you there, didn’t I? Oh yes, budding songstress Ebony has won the hearts of many music lovers. Her talent in music is wow but just take a closer look at her, she does have a black skin yet she’s notably beautiful.

Sista Afia

The Beautiful Songstress, Sista Afia has also spent most of her life abroad. But isn’t it baffling to see that she is still a total definition of a beautiful black woman? If she was able to leave nursing to be a full time musician then becoming light skinned could have been something very easy for her.

There are many people who have lost any form of hope when it comes to celebrities and their marriage and there are those who say that they have personally lost interest in marriage due to the fact that their role mode, a celebrity could not make it appealing to them.

Of course, marriage is an institution on its own that needs so many ‘ingredients’ for it’s sustainability.

Whiles we keep hearing of one divorce to another among celebrities across the wold, let’s not forget that there are actually a few who are still living happily in their marriages.
