Stonebwoy celebrates Ghanaian artistes on Australia radio
Ghana's 1st Reggae/Dancehall BET Winner, Stonebwoy is currently busy moving through big cities in Australia with his #GoHigherTour this August.
The Ashaiman superstar in a radio interview earlier on Kiss 87.7fm in Melbourne, Australia admits that the Reggae & Dancehall genre has become a ‘household music commodity', not just in Ghana but Africa as a whole.
In his own words, “Reggae and Dancehall is not new to Africa. It has been there for years I should say; but it has now fully gained grounds in Africa.
Just as we appreciate our indigenous African sounds or ensembles, we've come to embrace the Reggae/Dancehall genre too. People love Afrobeats, people love African music from time immemorial, but there is a creed of new African artistes who have come to appreciate the Reggae and Dancehall music on our continent. It has a very huge market and appeal in Ghana where I come from; even in East Africa, in Nigeria and across Africa.”
Stonebwoy however stole some time on the interview to eulogize Afro Moses, E.T Mensah, Gyedu Blay Ambolley, (just to mention a few) who have played key roles in exporting indigenous Ghanaian music (Highlife) to the national and international levels.
He also gave props to Reggie Rockstone who is identified hugely with the Hiplife genre in Ghana. Stonebwoy talked about how Highlife music over the years evolved into Hiplife et al.
Copacabana in Melbourne hosts Stonebwoy live in concert this Friday, August 12 makes it the 2 location he would be playing his #GoHigherTour in Australia.
He plays Sydney next weekend, Saturday, August 20. He played Metro City in Perth (Australia) on August 5, with a huge crowd in attendance – had both Ghanaians, Australians and other nationals passing through. Event is powered by Perfect Promotions Australia.
In a related activity, Stonebwoy drops a new song soon together with an official video he is currently shooting in Australia titled #Problem. No specific date has been decided yet but Stonebwoy promises its release this September.

“All Sam George Know Is To Sit on Radio And Rant, Look At Our Roads” – Abena Korkor Attacks Mp (Video)
Abena Korkor Attacks Mp (Video)
The Ningo Prampram Member of Parliament, Sam George, has come under fire from socialite Abena Korkor for not fixing the roads in his district.
Korkor posted a video of her community's terribly maintained roads that was shot in Tema Community 25 after recent rains.
She claims that Uber drivers won't come to the neighborhood to give rides because of how terrible the roads are.
She added that, as a result, she must travel in a motor vehicle to do all of her errands. As Korkor hauled local MP Sam George, she did not hold back.
She also had some harsh words to say about Stephanie Karikari, the former Miss Ghana, and former President Mahama, among many others.

“What If The ‘Big Mouth Association” Too Comes Out Angry?” – Shatta Wale Asks Ghana Society Of The Physically Disabled
After making fun of Stonebwoy's disabilities, Ghanaian reggae dancehall musician Shatta Wale has adamantly refused to apologize to the Ghana Society of Physically Disabled (GSPD).
After Wale made fun of Stonebwoy at the just-ended Salafest, the GSPD urged the singer to recant his remarks and issue an apology.
However, Shatta Wale disregarded society's plea in a widely shared video response.
The “On God” hitmaker instead questioned society's reasoning for the demand and railed against it.
The outspoken performer said, “You can't create a problem for me; I am a problem myself.” “Everything we are doing is creating an association and paying dues; there is even an unemployed people's association.”

“Kwaku Manu Is Very Rich And Owns A House In East Legon” – Oboy Siki Reveals
In an interview with Angel FM, well-known Kumawood actor Oboy Siki praised his colleague Kwaku Manu for his public persona despite his affluence.
He said that Manu is someone who worked hard to get his wealth in the entertainment sector and does not show it off in public as some do.
He said that Kwaku Manu, the actor, had constructed an opulent home in East Legon and added that there were other things he had done behind the scenes that were not made public.
“A person such as Kwaku Manu presents himself as impoverished, but in reality, he is not; he just chooses not to show it off. Even if he has a home in East Legon and all, he does not lead an opulent life. I don't give a damn about what he thinks; I'm just telling the truth,” he remarked.
Actor Kwaku Manu, who is highly recognized in the nation, currently hosts a show on which he conducts interviews with celebrities, which he shares on many social media networks.
