blank
In Ghana, lots of music is churned out on daily basis, yet great chunk of such songs are nothing to write home about – just ordinary and noisy songs.
You can blame that on the proliferation of recording studios at every corner in the country. Because of the availability of such studios, anybody at all can record something and call it music.

GhanaCelebrities.Com has obtained a new song of legendary Highlife musician, Ben Brako featuring one of the hardworking and best rappers in Ghana, A.S.E.M.
The song is titled ‘Shame & Scandal In The Family’, produced by Kaywa and its simply what you will call a masterpiece. No needless noise. It’s a song that both old and young folks can relate to.
