The 2020 edition of the Soundcity MVP Award Festival hosted by Bonang Matheba, came off at the Eko Hotel, Lagos.
The prevailing relationship between Ghanaian event organizers abroad has been that of, everyone for himself, God, for us all. There seem to exist no mutual support nor any collaborative effort among them, thus according to the careful observations Sarkodie.
Moreover, the multiple BET award winner, Sarkodie upon noticing this, saw it as a canker that could retard the development of Ghana’s showbiz fortunes internationally. For this reason, he decided to give a piece of advice urging the Ghanaian organizers to turn a new leave this brand new year.
She got many super addicted to her back to back hits. But upon promising she was going to make us sing her name, she suddenly brought it all to a halt.
The ‘Sing my name’ super talented singer, MzVee went off the music scene for a year. But has finally announced a comeback from her music hiatus.
She shockingly revealed, she had to take a break from music because she was in a state of depression. She was depressed for two years, thus 2017 and 2018. So she had to take some time off for herself, to find and rejuvenate herself.
Speaking to Berla Mundi on TV3 New Day, the dancehall diva disclosed, the only one she could talk to was Efya. She also had to draw closer to her family and now, she goes to church even more now.

It’s less than 24 hours to the close of 2019 and we present to you the list of top ten songs, that enjoyed a massive play at weddings during the year.

The sixth studio album of Ghana’s finest rapper, Sarkodie gave fans a feel of the Afrobeats version of the undisputed rap god. This was evident in how those tracks topped music charts before and even after the release of the album.
Moreover, the album had an all-excellent track mix, you could hard hardly pick a favorite. However, Sarkodie himself was able to choose ‘Anadwo’ in which he featured King Promise as his favorite. How incredible right?
American based African richest award-winning musician, Akon has named Ghana’s biggest Internationally acclaimed music act. Sarkodie was the name he mentioned as the only musician in Ghana worthy of that title.
The Konvict Music boss made these statements during a conference he had at the Kimpinski hotel as part of his visit to Ghana for the year of return. Akon adds his voice to the many, who have already accorded the multiple BET award winner, Sarkodie that global honor.
He explained Sarkodie is the only Ghanaian music act who has his music dominant in the global music scene.
He further noted that he does not accord any such honor to any artist just because of how big the person’s name is. He looks at how dominant the person’s music is, globally and Sarkodie is the only Ghanaian who has reached that height.
He disclosed, ” That has been the toughest question I’m asked every country I go… I don’t know anyone, I just know a good song that reaches the top. The only one honestly from Ghana that has reached the top really is Sarkodie”
Furthermore, he affirmed that he actually signed Sarkodie onto his Konvict music record label, refuting claims that, the rapper lied about being signed onto the label.

Tourism, as we all know, has become a major driving force of many economies, in our world today. The high economic gains from tourists who troop in, year in year out, to various tourist sites cannot be overemphasized. Government rakes in a lot of revenue from these sites.
However, in spite of all these benefits, numerous tourist sites are still left unexplored, especially in many parts of the North. Moreover, the Upper East region, harbors a good number of such idle sites.
The ability of these un-utilized places of attraction to turn around the fortunes of the region is a glaring fact. To realize all these great fortunes, it would take the considerable effort of projecting these tourist sites to attract more attention to them.
