8 Ghanaian Rap Artistes Who Will Remain “Underground” Even In 2015

The music terrain in Ghana is just too tough for some people who venture.

For various reasons, some acts just fail to sustain the shine or exposure they achieved with either a song, mixtape, album or a feature.
Whiles some are still trying to remain relevant, others have not been heard of for years. Below are artistes who took Ghana music by storm for one reason or the other but failed or have failed to remain relevant. Maybe their luck run out or they are just not good for the industry,  don’t know. Just see them below.
 STRONG MAN
After winning the maiden edition of GhOne’s The Next Big Thing”, he’s been quite active with releases but he’s not gotten an album out yet. He keeps doing more freestyles and singles yet, not doing enough to attain mainstream status. I don’t think it’s gonna be anything different this year.

Okomfo Kwadee
He’s been there, done that and all but he’s been missing in action. He’s done well to drop his usual Kwadee kinda tunes but the reception hasn’t been good. I know he’ll release a lot more materials this year but honestly I don’t think he can come back into mainstream the way he did in the past.



YAA PONO
He’s the king of freestyles but is that what Yaa Pono is all about???? He started with Sarkodie in Tema and on Adom Fm, Sark is the number 1 rapper in Ghana now and Pono is the number 1 underground rapper right now…..(pun intended). I don’t think he can do anything different this year that will allow him to rub shoulders with the Sarkodie’s, Edem’s, E.L’s etc.


KOFI KINATA
He says he’s the king of fante rap but I guess that’s all he’s gonna be. He isn’t doing enough to break loose from the underground status. After Odo pa with Castro, we all thought this was the time for him, but alas, we got disappointed. He sunk back into underground mode after Castro’s disappearance.





TUTULAPATO
TU
He’s young, talented but has the weakest management. There is still a tussle between his management and his family and that’s not going to help his career in any way. This year is definitely not going to be the year we see our King of the kidz blow up.


D-CRYME
After that first album, he’s just gone. He’s tried to come back but luck don finish. I so wish he can do something different but my instincts tell me his choir-like music is done.



SCREW FACE
 From dancehall, reggae to afropop, to francophone, Skrew Face has just gone from being at the top to the very bottom and now just left to playing small gigs. Things don’t look like it’s gonna be different for this man.
KONTI HENE
He ruled Ghana music, left and came back and that’s it. His album last year had good tunes but he couldn’t capitalise to regain his status. We hope for better this year but our hopes are at a minimal….like seriously

Does he have a private Jet? See Top 10 facts about the Pastor Kumuyi you did not know (Photos)

Nowadays, owning private jets is the new trend for Nigerian pastors. It is so rampant that we have to wonder if Jesus would agree to have one if he was in the shoes of these same pastors today. Here we will try to find out whether William Kumuyi has his own luxurious vessel or not. This would be interesting. Famous Pastors like Ayo Oritsejafor, Bishop David Oyedepo, Enoch Adeboye and Pastor T.B. Joshua are Nigerian pastors that have already been reported to have private jets. Various arguments have been put forward for and against the issue of procurement of a N4 billion aircraft by the General Superintendent of the Deeper Life church. Recently Pastor Kumuyi was called one of the 500 most influential people on the planet apparently owing to his reach in Christendom via his mega church. Pastor Kumuyi is arguably a bigger preacher and pastor than most of the jet-setting pastors, but it is not clear yet if he owns one. What is certain is that he lives a little below the radar

My lesbian story - Yvonne Nelson

Image
M y  interview with top Ghanaian actress – Yvonne Nelson-was a revelation in so many ways. Of the leading Nollywood stars, Yvonne is among those I had not had a close relationship with. I had watched her from afar, seen countless number of her movies and had always thought she was a great and talented actress – someone who combined poise, beauty and style. I had also heard of some unsavory things ascribed to her – the rumors of sexual orientation which some say verged between pure lesbianism and bi-sexualism – all manner of shenanigans that had been whispered and published about her. Some years ago, she came out with a movie, “Heart of Men”, in which she seemed to have appeared in frontal nudity– a development that set off a firestorm of protest among Nollywood lovers –with many condemning the exploitation of graphic sexual images to promote and sell movies – which was a deviation of what Nollywood had always been seen to represent: a family friendly entertainment medium.
