Dancehall Artiste Ebony Never Completed SHS And Here’s Why

Fast rising female dancehall artiste Ebony after two years of studying at Methodist Girls’ SHS decided to say goodbye to school all because she wanted to focus on music.

The ‘Poison’ hitmaker has refuted claims that she was dismissed from school. Speaking to MzGee of Hitz FM, she asked Ghanaians never to believe any story that says authorities of her former school sacked her because of her bad behaviour.

Giving reasons why she left the school during her second year, Ebony disclosed that she convinced her father why he needed to allow her to start music and forgo school. According to the dancehall artiste, the thousand and one reasons she gave daddy years ago went into his good ears and that made him give her the go ahead to pack all her bags from Methodist Girls’ SHS and take music seriously.

She continued that most people attend school to gain knowledge and earn income so she has not regretted dropping out of school since music can fetch her income more than what school would have given her of she had continued.

“Why do we go to school? We go to school to be intellectuals and also to get an income and music can equally do the same things for me. If I’ll be going back to school then I’ll continue what I already know but not for income because music is already doing that.

I’ve never been dismissd from any school before. I was very stubborn but I was never sacked. I sat my dad down and told him this is what I wanted to do. I told him I want to do music and he understood me. He was like they have always known I was going to do music so they have no problem but I should promise them I will go back to school in future” Ebony told MzGee.

I’ll Always Date ‘Sugar Mummies’ – D.Cryme

In Ghana and other parts of the world, a woman dating a guy who is younger than her is mostly referred to as sugar mummy and such a person is who Ghanaian musician, Kwasi Darlington popularly called D.Cryme says he wants to be in an amorous relationship with.

The Tema-based rapper in a conversation with Hitz FM’s MzGee giving reasons why he will always choose to date a woman older than him than go in for a young girl explained that he needs a matured person he can easily reason with. To him, he does not need a young lady he will use several hours to convince just to understand a simple matter.

“I think a matured person is more appropriate for me even if she is older than me. We have a lot of people who have older wives and are still happily together so it doesn’t matter. The level of where I am, I need a matured person that I can easily reason with because I don’t need a young lady I should convince for a long time.”

The Twi Pop boss added that age is just a number so he sees nothing wrong with dating a sugar mummy. When MzGee questioned him if he has dated someone older than him, he answered, “With my experiences, I believe I’ve”.

Agyekum was born in Tema and began making music in his early school days. He studied at the Datus School and then attended ASUTECH in Cape Coast and Sotech in Somanya before earning a certificate in broadcast journalism from the Ghana Institute of Journalism.

Good Or Bad? These Guys Are Fighting Over Ohemaa Mercy’s Dressing And Performance At This Event

Ohemaa Mercy was at University of Ghana over the weekend for Azusa Impact and her dressing and performance at the event has had people talking.

After Zionfelix.net uploaded Ohemaa’s performance on YouTube for the world to watch how things happened when she stormed Legon, many have shared divergent opinion on her outfit and performance. Few people who have watched the video are question why a gospel musician world wear such an outfit for a gospel show and deliver the kind of performance she exhibited on the night. These people think Mrs Mercy Twum-Ampofo should have not appeared at the event with the sneakers and trousers and deliver such energetic performance.

When those who think the ‘Aseda’ singer did something wrong were busily rebuking her, others were on the other side defending the gospel diva’s act on the night of the concert. To those defending the mother of three, Ohemaa did nothing wrong on the night but everything she wore was to help her craft.

Watch Ohemaa Mercy’s performance and outfit these guys are fighting over.

High Life Music Is The Mother Of Afro Beat – Bisa Kdei

Multiple award-winning artiste, Bisa Kdei has been able to take High Life music to the world.

The LIFE hit maker on Beat FM talked about High Life music and how tough it was for him to continue from where our older generation left off.

According to Bisa Kdei, he grew up in an environment where High Life music is the only Language he and his family could relate to. Falling in love with the genre, Bisa Kdei pledged to take the genre to a different height since High Life is the only music of Ghanaian origin.

Comparing High Life music to Afro Beats, Bisa Kdei said, “High Life music is the mother of Afro Beat. I just appreciate the fact that High Life music is getting all this attention. But what most people don’t know is, Afro Beat originated from High Life music. So like I always say, music is a universal language, if well spoken, people can easily translate and relate to it — and that’s why I have mixed race dancing, singing and getting motivated and inspired from my song and lyrics”

He talked about his latest project called Konnect, which is aimed at connecting him to his fans more than ever.

I have started this new movement called Konnect, where I connect more with my fans. Recently when I went to the states, I gave a surprise visit to some of my fans at their home, work places, etc. I am giving my fans more of me because they play a huge role in my music success. I respect their support and love and I am giving myself some more time to really KONNECT with them – Bisa Kdei added.

Bisa Kdei is credited with series of hit songs, including Odo Carpenter, Mansa, Brother Brother, Azonto Ghost, Samina, I Love You, Saa, Atomesu, Madanfo, Baba, Pillow, Jwe, Life, to mention but few.

Watch Ohemaa Mercy’s Mega Performance At University of Ghana Everybody Is Talking About

Most entertainment critics have asked Ghanaian musicians to perform live whenever they are on stage to entertain their fans but most of them have not listened to this advice.

Ohemaa Mercy was on Legon campus Sunday, March 26 for Azusa Impact and it was powerful. The multiple award-winning female gospel musician showed that she has mastered her craft so she knows what she wants when on stage.

Together with her energetic band and backing vocalists, Ohemaa gave the students a performance they have never experienced on campus. Ohemaa started her performance with an atmosphere of worship to allow the crowd receive the blessings of God.

Right after the worship moment was the time to dance and Ohemaa made sure the students enjoyed the night. When organisers of the show asked Ohemaa to halt her performance because time school authorities gave them was up, students were still screaming for more.
