I Enjoy Songs Like Baafira And Sheekena By Stonebwoy – President John Mahama
As busy as John Mahama is, as President of Ghana, he still manages to find some time to wind down with some great hiplife music.
His list of favourite hiplife artistes without any surprise featured the reigning Ghana Musical Awards artiste of the Year, Stonebwoy. He also won the Best International Act at the 2015 BET Awards recently.
The surprise though for many entertainment and industry watchers would be the President's exclusion of Sarkodie and Shatta Wale. The President while speaking on Uniiq FM to commemorate the World Youth day also mentioned VIP [now VVIP] and Wuta.
The President also revealed he loves other genre of Ghanaian music and some of his favourite musicians include Shasha Marley, Gyadu Blay Ambuley but his all-time favourite is Kojo Antwi.
“I like a lot of the old artistes, of course Kojo Antwi continues to be my favourite. I like Gyedu Blay-Ambolley, KK Kabobo. I like the young ones too, I listen to some of the old young ones like Shasha Marley, Wutah, VIP. But recently I listened to Stonebwoy, I think his got a good hit with Shikina and Baafira, that's also a good one. I like Ghanaian music so I listen to most our artistes,” said president Mahama.
He however fell short of mentioning popular and controversial artistes Sarkodie and Shatta Wale who have won the hearts of many Ghanaians with their songs.
Sarkodie has also won several awards both locally and on the international stage.
He has recently released some songs including “The masses,” “Inflation,” and “Dumsor” chastising the government on worsening economic situation among others.
Commenting on his favourite movies, President Mahama said he “loves Shirley Frimpong-Manso's movies, Lil Win, Agya Koo” among others.
He said usually when he travels, he takes some of these movies along to enjoy while on his trips.

“COVID Messed Me Up” – Guru Recounts
The 2020 COVID-19 epidemic was difficult for Ghanaian artist Maradona Yeboah Adjei, better known by his stage names Guru and Guru NKZ. He talked about these and other difficult situations.
At the height of the pandemic, Guru described how travel restrictions caused what was intended to be a quick two-week vacation in the US to become a five-month agony.
He experienced a depressive episode after his return to Ghana as a result of the prolonged stay's negative effects on his mental state.
Guru discovered during this period that a lot of things had changed in his life, such as the loss of his team and a slump in his profession. He said, looking back on his trip, “I went for two weeks, and COVID extended my stay.” It took some time for me to rebuild my energies after returning because everything had gone wrong in the nation.
Guru used music as a therapeutic avenue to vent his feelings and as a coping mechanism for his dejection.
He worked with fellow musician Fameye on a song that depicted his journey through hardship and personal challenges.
“In my sad moments, I use music to relieve myself,” Guru shared. “I was trying to express something and make it more comical, but it's music; I just have to balance it.”

“I’m Not Bothered About Shatta Wale Mocking My Disability; It Speaks A Lot About Him” – Stonebwoy (Video)
There's an old video on the internet with multiple award-winning reggae-dancehall kings Stonebwoy talking about the ongoing abuse he gets from fellow artist Shatta Wale.
About the incident that almost claimed the lives of him, his sister, and his father, Stonebwoy spoke candidly.
When he experienced the accident, Stonebwoy claims to have been 14 years old. He revealed they were getting ready to go on a trip overseas when a police cruiser slammed into them.
He told how his sister, who is currently overseas, is still experiencing pain from the accident and how it severely damaged his leg.
Stonebwoy said, “Shatta's actions only prove how naive he is,” when asked how he felt about Shatta Wale continuously making fun of him for his limp.
He continued by saying that Shatta Wale's acts just demonstrate his ignorance of the complexity of human nature and the hardships that certain individuals must face in order to thrive.
Shatta Wale has made it a point to criticize Stonebwoy and call him “apakye” for constantly limping over the last several days.

“I Spend 800 Cedis Daily Whenever I’m In Accra” – Kyekyeku Reveals
In anticipation of the release of his film “1957,” Ghanaian actor Kyekyeku has shared details about his everyday costs since moving to Accra.
He said that the expense of living in Accra is more than it was in Kumasi, where he used to live and where the cost of products and services is lower.
The actor revealed that he spends between GH¢700 and GH¢800 a day on food, petrol, and other costs when talking about how he manages the cost of living.
Though the expense of living in Accra is high, the city itself is lovely. While costs in Accra are slightly higher than in Kumasi, they are still reasonable. A GH¢20 item in Kumasi will cost GH¢25 in Accra. To some extent, I guess that's because it's the capital city.
“Considering fuel, food, and other small expenses, I could spend between GH¢700 and GH¢800 with my daily expenses,” Kyekyeku stated in an interview with Zionfelix.
He traveled from Kumasi to Accra lately in order to be ready for the debut of his movie, 1957, and to get to know the locals, he said in response to a question about why he did so.
