Power can blind and make you deaf to Reality.

Ex President Mahama at the Creative Connect in Kumasi described the Creative Industry as getting worse and Uncle Rex reiterated the same FACT over the weekend but according to the Deputy Minister Mark Okraku-Mantey said the industry is rather in a far better state and that Rex should provide statistics to buttress his claim.


If you ask me I’ll say the industry is in a very very bad state and it’s nothing to write home about.


Ghallywood went to sleep long ago and Kumawood that was keeping the film industry awake joined it a few years ago. Almost all the Actors are now struggling on YouTube to find their daily bread and the rest have turned into followers of politicians.

All we see on our screens are foreign soap operas and I guess that’s what our Minister is proud of.


The music industry is in a sad state with no investors and it’s left with the individual Artists struggling on their own with no assistance from even government.


The CMO’s that use to give them royalties have been rendered redundant by this same government who has refused to renew their licenses.


The only thing Mark can boast off will be their year of return and December in Gh and you ask yourself whether Creatives will only eat in December. Fact is government has created nothing in December but only partnered already existing private events just to collect fans.


Fact is the film and the music industry doesn’t exist locally and if not for the internet and the YouTube’s and iTunes that comes with it like the entire industry would have been extinct.


If we add sports to it then we can conclude that the current state of our BlackStars actually summarizes the entire performance of our Creative Arts & Sports sector and obviously it can only be described as shambolic


As a former record label owner who is now a minister and can’t even boast of any major labels in his era but will still call into a tv show after 12midnight just to defend his abysmal performance one can only tell how power can excuse me to say blind you from the reality.


In fact Honorable,

Where are your theatres

Where are your Amphitheaters

Where are your ultramodern studios &

Where is the film village just to mention a few that your government promised the industry.


I guess He Who Feels it Knows it.

  Pablo Hxncho drops TSUNII (WORK) Teaser on International Workers Day.  Ghanaian Afro - Dancehall musician Lawrence Nii Adjei Laryea, popularly know as Pablo Hxncho has dropped a teaser of his yet to be released single titled TSUNII (WORK) to mark the international world workers day. TSUNII which is slated to be released on the 6th of May 2024 was performed in the Ghanaian local dialect “GA” which means WORK. In a phone conversation with Pablo, he said the song was inspired by his mother who always advised him on the importance of work as a man. Even though times are very difficult in Ghana, as a man you still need to work hard to make ends meet and that success comes with hard work and determination. Pablo Hxncho released his debut album “PEACE AND CHAOS “ on the 20th July 2023 which featured great artists like Spacely of the La meme Gang and Gunnyboy. https://youtu.be/ovBphq8_11k?si=4gSOq4Rhu0W-l41j

Is Andy Dosty behind Deejay Slim’s foolishness - Nana Kwame Gyan quizzes  Radio Personality Nana Kwame Gyan on his entertainment show Anigye mmre on Onua 95.1fm over the weekend questioned the behavior of Deejay Slim in the entertainment space and asked his senior DJ Andy Dosty if he is the one behind Slim’s misbehavior. About a month ago Nana Kwame has sent a message to Andy Dosty to advise his younger brother Deejay Slim but it seems that message did not reach Slim who ones again exhibited the same foolishness Kwame warned him about. Knowing the bad blood between Andy Dosty and Shatta Wale one can easily conclude that indeed Andy could be the one behind Deejay Slim’s folly. He questioned Deejay Slim’s competence as to how he was unable to manage a radio station in Kumasi when he had the opportunity. Kwame reiterated the fact that Andy who understands this industry better should advise Slim else he might regret his actions sooner than later. THANK YOU  for constantly reading ...
