I Didn’t Know Fancy Gadem When He Won VGMAs – Feli Nuna

Feli Nuna at 2017 VGMAs

When all thought we have closed the chapter on the annual Ghana Music Awards, Afrobeat artiste Feli Nuna has made a dreadful comment.

The ‘I Like Am’ singer was on Live FM Wednesday morning to premiere her new single, ‘Afromagic’ and on the show, Daavi Diva told the host that she never knew Fancy Gadem before he walked home with his first VGMAs award.

According to Felina Nuna, even though she had not heard any song from the Northern star, she was not worried when he was announced the winner for the New Artist of The year category at this year’s awards, which was held at the National heater. The wide-reaching female rapper and singer explained that she was informed later that he had sold-out events in 2016.

She added that awards are not her aim in the music business so she just had to agree to whoever won the award for the category she was nominated for.

She told Jay Foley, host of the morning show that her sole aim is to make the public happy with her songs but awards come as a bonus.

Listen to Feli Nuna’s Afro Magic new single below:

Nana Ama McBrown & Joselyn Dumas

Joselyn Dumas known for many glamour movies is not happy about Kumawood moviemakers not casting her for their productions.

The actress in a chat on Peace FM disclosed that she has expressed interest in Kumawood movies but nobody is giving her roles. According to her, she has told Nana Ama McBrown several times that she wants to feature in any of the local movies but producers do not consider when planning their films. She made it clear that no producer from the Kumawood side has ever called her for her to even reject it.

When asked if she has been knocking at their doors, she passionately answered, “I have. There is a guy called Ike who gets deals from Kumawood. Anytime he mentions my name when this opportunity comes, they give him excuse so I get sidelined there. It breaks my heart because I speak Ga and Twi and I want people to know another side of me many people do not know. All this is because of a perception out there that we think Kumawood is not good but that is not true at all.”
