Video: Eazzy’s Departure From Lynx Left Me Heartbroken For Weeks – Richie’s Mother
Mother of Lynx Entertainment boss, Mrs. Alberta Mensah has revealed that she was heartbroken when her son’s former record label signed artiste, Eazzy exited the label.
According to Mrs. Mensah, the departure of Eazzy from the label made her weep for two weeks.
Richie Mensah, once a great artiste himself retired from performing to managing of up-and-coming-artistes.
His mother, Mrs. Albertha Mensah had been his pillar and backbone in all of his careers.
Eazzy was one of the early artiste’s signed on to Richie’s Lynx entertainment in 2009. She was however, officially handed over to broadcaster cum designer Kofi Okyere Darko (KOD) in 2012.
Mrs. Mensah, together with her son have narrated how Richie had to use his car as collateral for a loan to shoot Eazzy’s ‘Go Go Wind’ music video.
“When Eazzy left, for two weeks I was always weeping. I wept because that was the time he (Richie) parked his car and shot a video for Eazzy; the ‘Go Go Wind’. As of the time, he spent twenty thousand Ghana cedis on that video and when he finished, she came and said she was leaving the video. Richie couldn’t tell me, he kept it for a long time before telling me. And when he told me, it was hell for me,” she told Joys News’ MzGee on mothers’ day.
She however stated she later understood that Eazzy left Lynx because she wanted to contest in the Big Brother Africa reality show.
“Eazzy came for a party once and I told her that she broke my heart and she said she was sorry. She wanted to go for Big Brother [Africa],” she added.
After Eazzy’s depature from the label, another artiste, Asem also decided to leave a while later.
When Richie’s mum was asked how she dealt with the exit of Asem, Richie rather answered that his didn’t really affect his mum since they had foreseen it in his behaviors earlier.
“I think Asem’s own didn’t really hurt mum that much because we saw it coming. He had started acting up before it happened; he raised his shoulders before he left.”
Madam Alberta chipped in that; “Especially when he got the Glo money, he thought that was the end of the world.”
MzVee, Kidi and Kuami Eugene are the current artistes signed onto the label.
