“If somebody is on a label to work, it’s work. Don’t see it as the label is giving you the platform or the opportunity. You are there to work and when the money starts coming in, the label is going to take their cut. So, it’s not some sort of grace or favour they are rendering to you,” Elsie Lamar on GhanaWeb’s Talkertainment.

This comes after he parted ways with Kaywa’s Highly Spiritual Music.

Actor Prince David Osei is unhappy about the double standard in Ghana.

While some people are criticizing Yvonne Nelson over her ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’ memoir, Prince has voiced out something that has been weighing his mind.

Prince David Osei hoped for a more compassionate and understanding society.

He wrote on Twitter: “Dear Ghana 🇬🇭, I wanted to share something that has been weighing on my mind lately. As some of you may know, our country can be a funny place and sometimes it can be hard to understand the rules that govern our society.

Recently, there has been a lot of attention focused on the issue of “I AM NOT YVONNE NELSON” Book“ABORTION” and it has highlighted some of the hypocrisy that exists in our country. For example, a popular song that glorifies a man getting a woman pregnant and then convincing her to have an abortion has been widely celebrated while a woman sharing her own traumatic experience with abortion has been met with criticism and backlash 🤦‍♀️.

This sort of double standard is concerning, and I can’t help but feel a sense of sorrow for our country and the struggles we face. I hope we can work together to create a more compassionate and understanding society.💪.”

Freebhoy Is A Connoisseur Of The Afro-Dancehall Genre

0

Fast-rising Ghanaian-based Nigerian Afro-dancehall artist Idogun Daniel Gospel, known in the music space as Freebhoy, is one of the acts helping to propel the Afro-dancehall genre around the globe, thanks to a pint-sized collection of music pieces that exemplify his unique craft in the music scene.

Signed to Dreams Never Let Go (DNLG) Empire, the upcoming music icon has played a key role in codifying the present ethos of Afro-Dancehall, mixing the bravado of a leering flow pattern inspired by most of his musical icons. All of this led to a proper breakout, which was confirmed by the success of his first single, ‘‘Kaagbele,” under the DNLG Empire.

Importantly, his association with DNLG Empire has positioned him in an ecosystem that understands his strengths and amplifies his gifts. The label also provides a platform for the artist to be more creative and understands his dream of being a musician.

Freebhoy’s path into music began a couple of years ago, as a child who spent most of his early life dreaming of music superstardom. His music career kicked off with his debut single ‘Ukpa,” released under his previous label, Unique Entertainment, and its video was shot by Mickey Johnson in Ghana at James Town, Accra.

The Edo State native is known for infusing his life experiences into his music pieces to encourage and motivate his audience. Freebhoy’s story is rich and authentic. His message is relevant, and he wants everyone to have a slice of his life’s journey.

He’s passionate about his music career and doing all he can, going the extra miles to reach higher heights and finding himself among the mainstream acts.

According to him, his first single couldn’t make waves to his expectations, so he then channelled lots of energy into more hard work on his second release, ‘Kaagbele,” under DNLG in Nigeria, with its video shot by Naya at Ojuelegba in Nigeria. The song has received massive airplay.

The 24-year-old music talent recently dropped a new tune dubbed Jah Bless, which was released on May 1, 2023. He is enthused by Shatta Wale’s craft. Freebhoy’s songs are available on all streaming platforms.

Empress Gifty Adorye has expressed worry about how some people deal with Gospel musicians.

She was unhappy about how society sometimes treats Gospel musicians.

According to her, there are some people who would even tell a Gospel musician what to wear.

The ‘Aseda’ singer said it is wrong for people to define Gospel musicians.

After being criticised for performing at Stonebwoy’s ‘Ashaiman To The World Concert’, Empress Gifty sees nothing wrong with what she did.

“Why is it that you see somebody ministering on Stonebwoy’s stage or Shatta’s stage, or Sarkodie, and you start to tag a gospel artiste? That is what I mean when I say that they should understand the system for us. The CD and cassette systems are no more. We are now in the era of pen drives and streaming. You listen to music on the internet, so the person gets revenue.

“So, they need to understand that we are humans and our feelings are working as well as our conscience. We know what is right and wrong, and the judgmental attitude toward gospel artistes is so weird. If they can limit it a little bit, they will see the best of us,” she added.

“If they say the church has now become too money minded I’ll say not all of them maybe some few churches are those doing that.

“It is said that one bad nut can spoil the whole soup so it’s only a few individuals doing it and it’s been generalized to all churches but there are some genuine churches and men of God,” the Gospel musician told Amansan Krakye on Property FM.

“There are those who are not focused on money but fully doing the work to win souls for Christ and I can vouch for Rev. Sam Korankye Ankrah and the mighty work that he’s doing.

“He’s been very supportive in paying people’s school fees, and supporting young ministers like myself so people shouldn’t think all the church is concerned about is money making,” MOG Music said.
