"Gbevu" Has Brought Back Edem's Originality

One Big name that can not be overlooked as far as Ghanaian Hip Hop is concerned is Edem. He started way back but still in the game like never before. Starting from Hammer the Last 2 , Edem is known for his energy, good delivery, punchlines and originality(Ewe), these qualities enabled him to release great songs that were massively accepted by everyone. After leaving the Last 2 records Edem is still doing very well releasing hit songs by hit songs eveynow and then, but to me as a music lover and an Edemite for that matter, i feel there are a couple of Edem's songs in which i did not feel his originality. A song like "Nyedzilo" was a very good song But i didn't feel the Real Edem i knew in songs like "The Legacy", "Bra fre mi" "Rush u dey craze" just to mention a few. Some may argue that he is just exhibiting his versatility but i still hold onto my stance. As the saying goes "Once a soldier, always a soldier" VRM

Stonebwoy and Beatz Dakay at War?

According to a report by Flexgh.com, all is not well with Stonebwoy and his producer Beatz Dakay over alleged revenue sharing. A source very close to the two individuals in this whole story who wants to remain anonymous has told Flex newspaper that Beatz Dakay is really frustrated about this whole confusion because he has been let down by the artiste he has sacrificed for all this while. Below are some of the frustrating issues he told Flex newspaper about on phone last week. “Beatz Dakay had earlier demanded for a percentage sharing of all gigs Stonebwoy will play because he does not charge him for the production. He demanded for 20% but Stonebwoy was only ready to give 5%. Again Stonebwoy has now set up his own studio in his house and instead of using his known producer Beatz Dakay for his works, he is rather using a young producer who goes by the name Awaga and was trained by Beatz Dakay. Meanwhile, Beatz Dakay set up the studio for Stonebwoy in his house
