Today marks exactly 1 year i started working at Zylofon media as a marketer. I recieved a call from a lady (HR) with a voice sweet enough to melt the hearts of angels; “Rexford, you have been employed. Please report at the office by 8am” OMG! OMG!! OMG!!! I couldn’t hide my excitement, I called close friends, family and even said a silent prayer to the most HIGH. History was about to be made and Rex will not be left out. Hmmm As marketer, an artist, beat maker, keyboard instructor with many years of experience in entertainment activities, working for Zylofon Media was just a dream come true. THE GOOD Entertainment in Ghana was literally on life support and needed immediate resuscitation. Musicians, actors/actress had no major platforms supporting their arts. There were no record labels with the right financial muscles to push these artists beyond the *Togo boarder*. Most artist in their struggle for survival metamorphosed into Instagram *slay kings* and *queen...

After the back and forth, Stonebwoy and his multimillion record label Zylofon Music have settled their differences. In a post he shared on his Instagram page, the dancehall superstar advice all his fans and lovers to do away with all the negative news published about them and support the Nana Appiah Mensah agenda of #GhanaShallProsper.

Read his post below:  I mean how can an old man of Willie Roi's calibre be so dumb? Zylofon Media well knew Stonebwoy and Shatta were rivals before signing the two. Things were rosy with Zylofon and Stonebwoy but after Shatta Wale was signed everything changed and whiles the CEO Nana Appiah Mensah is trying hard to make p...
