It is often said that ‘the best comes from the west’, though there is nothing to prove this saying, it has been an accepted adage.
The best resources in Ghana are said to be found in the western part of the country, like gold, diamond and most importantly cocoa, with the greatest achievement being the discovery of oil in commercial quantities.

It seems the sensational Highlife music star, Daddy Lumba (DL) had the biggest surprise in his life on the Val’s day when he appeared on stage only to see empty seats waiting impatiently for his well-rehearsed performance. Like a dreadful curse, our man had no option than to sing for ‘them’.
The issues or controversies that surround the prestigious Ghana Music Awards annually are mostly categorization; nominations and to the larger extent eventual winners. This year’s award could possibly suffer similar fate, according to the ‘experts’.

I am always beaming with smiles and get exhilarated whenever I hear people write serious grammar to lambaste Ghana Music Awards 2009 New Artiste of the Year winner Asem. I begin to ask questions if those people are indeed for real.
In August 1999, Ricci Osei, Reggie’s late father said “if they are not talking about you, it means you are not worth talking about”, so I guess you understand me now why they keep talking about him, Asem is worth talking about really.
Reading the interview AfricanPromo.com granted the controversial hip life artiste Aplus and Mmframa of Fili Gadogi fame who appeared on TV Africa’s Run Down last Wednesday hosted by Yaw Sakyi, I get the impression that everything is not going on well in the music industry in Ghana.
I was surfing the web few days ago and came across the video below which features some of Lynx Entertainment and One MIC Entertainment artistes such as Richie, Asem, Lady Prempeh, Vyroz, Kalibos, Okyeame Kwame, OJ Blaq and AJ Nelson in a welcoming song for Prez Obama’s visit to Ghana this weekend. My first reaction was:
Abodam is an assumed name of a mad man walking free on the streets of Accra under the pretext of doing hip life.Methinks, Kwaw Kese is just arrogant, bloody opportunist; I think he’s an attention seeker.
Why does he want his butt on everybody’s case? This guy is accused of defrauding his ex girl friend; he is again indicted for stealing Konfi’s lyrics in his Zoom Lion Campaign song. I doubt if he’s going to come out clean.
He was on Peace FM, sometime ago to speak well of his immoral acts, praising polygamy, he wants to marry as many as 10 because Ghanaian women needs to be loved. Real definition of a mad man huh? Kwaw Kese the self-acclaimed king of the streets is set to launch his latest album anytime soon on the streets.
Sparrow Productions under the directorship of Shirley Frimpong Manso have recently produced another distinct and amazing Ghanaian Movie called the Perfect Picture. Starring in this amazing Romantic Comedy are Jackie Appiah, Lydia Forson, Naa Asorkor mensah-Doku, Adjety Annang, Nana Kwame Osei Sarpong with Chris Attoh and introducing Kwaku Sintin – Misa.
This well written romantic comedy has been widely received and captioned as one of the best movies coming from Ghana after its success in Lagos, Port Harcourt, Accra and London. The film is akin to Peter Heller’s Brown sugar in which three attractive women hitting their thirty try to change their lives for the better. The film sets out to unfold their pursuit for love and tests their friendship. The beautiful scenes were shot in one of the most beautiful places in Ghana(Takoradi).
In the past, I have written two articles on what was Van Vicker’s nonexistence acting skill. I was unable to get over his abysmal portrayal of characters, and his reluctance to abandon his swagger and commit fully to a character. As a result, his movies along with a host of others became my ultimate bête noir.
However, his recent performances are a far cry from the wooden depictions I became accustomed to. His switch from ridiculousness to brilliance from scene to scene in his previous performances was a complete turnoff. But over time his acting has improved immensely. However, can he hold his own with the veterans? Not yet I am afraid.
4×4 is a rap duo made up of two good looking and ‘macho’ young men, Captain Planet and Abortion. Captain Planet’s real name is Sylvanus Dodji Jeoffrey.Abortion was christened Raphael Edem Avornyo.
Abortion is simply a ragga artiste with a Jamaican flow. When it comes to rapping in Pidgin English Eddie Blay of Native Funk Lord, Prince Bright of Buk Bak fame are experts but Captain Planet has indeed stole that title particularly when Eddy Blay and Prince Bright are jaded. Captain Planet is really in a class of his own, his stuck on the Ga language is very interesting, he raps in Ga with so much ease and one wonders if he’s a native of Bukom or Chorkor.Abortion’s Jamaican-ragga-flow is what differentiates him from the chaff.
Ever watched a Ghanaian movie in which the doctor launches into a string of medical gibberish? Ever witness these doctors diagnosediseases by placing their stethoscope over a patient’s chest? Tired of all the medical baloney huh? So am I! According to Ghanaian (African) movies, when a couple can’t have a boy it’s the woman’s fault, hence the man divorces the woman and marries another. Do all women go to the hospital for a test before knowing for certain that they are pregnant?
Well, according to Ghanaian movies that is the case. Ooh…ooh…ooh have you grown weary of actresses screaming on top of their lungs the moment they go into labor? So am I! And for Christ sake do all accident victims require a bandage around their head? Even a bullet to the butt requires a bandage around the head, what the heck?
This should have been a review but it’s not! It’s more of a rant. The truth is I can’t get over the fact that I wasted 30 minutes of my time watching that “fugly” train wreck excuse of a movie called ‘Fate of the Unfaithful.’ I didn’t finish the movie nor was able to bring myself to pay close attention to write what would have been a review. Instead, I have decided to write what I have aptly dubbed ‘WARNING: This may hurt your eyes.’
Describing Confidence’s sense of style as haute will be far-fetched; however, catastrophic does spring to mind immediately, especially considering the responses it provokes. Confidence may have stepped on some toes with her daring style, which has well, drawn some harsh criticisms. However, whatever the reasons behind her sense of fashion, it appears she has had her fill of the negative publicity surrounding her. It’s about time the public shift its attention and focus on what she is least known for-her numerous charity works in Ghana.
