I am always upset and disappointed when it comes to the kind of lies celebrities put in the media for their fans. Do you remember my write up when Yvonne Nelson bragged that she bought her dress for the premiere of  the  movie “Princess Bride” at a cost of 2550 Euros ?

The boxer, who lost his last fight against Manny Pacquiao, made the comments during an encounter with a section of Ghana’s local press at a small welcome party organized on his behalf by Ruff ‘N’ Smooth, a hip life duo, at Bola Ray’s Empire Entertainment.

US-based Ghanaian music producer, Coptic continues to work his magic and rapper Memphis Bleek is one of the latest artists to work with the talented beat maker. Coptic’s well crafted production on the title track, ‘The Process’, sets the tone for the rejuvenated rapper to reintroduce his aggressive flow to the masses on his Mass Appeal debut.

Memphis Bleek describes the album as: “You know people argue over it’s The Understanding or M.A.D.E. is my best album, but this new album is killing all of that because it’s the truth, it’s everything.
