CEO of Drum Lyne Entertainment, Justice Oteng aka Wei Ye Oteng has a message for Kelvynboy. Kelvynboy is an Afrobeats artiste signed to Burniton Music Group.

Moreover, he urges Kelvynboy to get back to his former self musically. This is if he wants to leave an indelible mark in the industry in Ghana.

He made these statements in a Facebook post. Furthermore, he stated that it was difficult to identify Kelynboy through his records for some time now. This is because he sounds like Wizkid. Therefore, he copies the Starboy’s style.

Wei Ye Oteng further made the point that the ‘Na You’ singer was very unique with his style. This was when he sang with bands. This stylgegave him a very unique identity and as such should not be allowed to slip by.

“I started enjoying this super talent when he was then doing copyright with bands. He was good and unique until he started his own vibe after Stonebowy gave him a push. However, for sometime now is hard to recognise him only via record. I always think it’s Wizkid anytime Kelvin is on a record. Therefore, I think he should go back and listen to how he used to deliver and attain some identity for himself be4 is too late, #Otengbeats #WYO”

Ghana’s Movie Industry Has A Long Way To Go – Lydia Forson

Outspoken Ghanaian actress, Lydia Forson has said Ghana’s movie industry has a long way to go due to funding constraints from individuals who believe in film and the government.

The awards-winning actress in an interview with BBC  said;

“Every industry go through its phase. Where we are now is not the best but I compare to where we were several years ago and I still believe it is better because, several years ago, actors were not making the kind of money we do, actors were not making endorsement.

It was still seen as a hobby. Could we be doing better much more, I still believe that we have a long way to go. Although it is struggling, I would not say it has collapsed”.

She added; “Our biggest challenge has always been funding. A lot of films in Ghana, although they are seen all over the world, 99.9 percent are from personal funds and passionate individuals who believe in the film that we don’t have any real places that we can go and say listen, this is where we get our money from, not even from banks.”

Miss Forson further noted that most corporate entities do not invest in film and this problem

of funding she believes cuts across movie industries in Africa, of which Ghana is of no exception.

According to her, though the NPP government is currently pushing the creative arts agenda, the team still go through the traditional process of seeking for sponsorship because of the ‘attitude of politicians’.

“Over the years, we sort for these funds ourselves. But this year, with the current government pushing the creative arts agenda, I was determined to make a statement but a lot of times, there’s what politicians say and there’s what they do. So we decided to go through the right process where we send letters and all of that”, she stated.

Aside lack of funds for the industry, Lydia Forson also revealed lack of respect for the industry

as one of the major challenge of the movie industry.

“There’s a huge challenge when it comes to funding and at this core, I think the biggest problem is lack of respect for the industry” she said.

There Are People In Ghana Who Are Stateless – eShun

Sensational singer signed onto Quophimens Music label eShun, has revealed that there are people in Ghana who are stateless.

According to eShun, who is also a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees(UNHCR) High-Level Supporter;

“the number of stateless persons or persons at risk of statelessness is unknown because as a country we have not seen the need to do that so we don’t have any of data. But from research that the UNHCR Ghana conducted, there are people in Ghana who are stateless or at risk of being stateless”.

eShun made this revelation during an interview on Accra Based Radio Station Rainbow FM with Sokohemaa.

She continued to narrate an incident where a woman born to Ghanaian parents and who has

lived in the nation all her life, had been denied the right to a birth certificate because officials

at the Registry claimed she is not a Ghanaian.

“She looks like a Fulani and for reasons unknown to me, Fulanis are not Ghanaians. Birth registration is not something we take really seriously in Ghana despite the existence of a free registration policy before a child reaches one year old. One of the major reasons why statelessness has not been solved is because of lack of awareness of the problem.’’, the Akyia Hit-maker eShun added.

Also Check:https://www.ghafla.com/gh/efia-odo-defends-rev-owusu-bempah/

Statelessness is a situation whereby an individual residing in a state is denied all the

privileges and rights given to its citizens because he or she has no documents to prove that

he or she is a citizen.

These individuals are typically in this situation because they have difficulties proving they possess links to the State they reside in.

This is due to, for instance, the lack of birth registration and personal documentation that

traces the individuals’ place of origin, and can confirm their identity.

Populations without birth certificates, abandoned children, undocumented stranded migrants,

individuals living in areas of political instability and border disputes, constitute some of the

major groups of people at risk of statelessness in West Africa.

The Someone Loves Me Hit-maker concluded that;

“If you are Stateless, you can’t go to school, you are denied quality health care, you can’t even marry. This is not right. It needs to end and that is why I am lending my full support to ending it by 2024.” eShun concluded.

As part of eShun’s support to End Statelessness, she composed and performed a song to help in creating awareness of the problem titled “I Belong”

Meanwhile, eShun launched this week the video for her fast trending song ‘Clap For Yourself’ which is enjoying massive views on Youtube.
