Emerging Ghanaian artiste, Safo Newman, has expressed his discontent with what he describes as misleading stories about him circulating in the media.

He claims that numerous bloggers write about him solely to attract clicks.

Safo Newman made these observations during his appearance on Asempa FM, where he also called on bloggers to ensure the precision and impartiality of their reports to avoid causing damage.

“I always say that people want to do anything just to trend, don’t believe any story you see. Bloggers normally create a headline just to get traffic for them. I want to urge the media to make sure they are writing the exact and fair captions for their stories in order not to cause damage,” he remarked.

The conversation about Safo Newman’s public image escalated when Ghanaian Dancehall artiste Shatta Wale reproached his team for neglecting his image enhancement while concentrating on his music promotion.

Amidst these debates, Safo Newman, who also serves as a teacher at Cosmos Basic School in Accra,
has been praised for his innovative fusion of contemporary and traditional music styles, particularly with his hit single ‘Akokoa,’ which debuted in 2023.

Dancehall musician, Shatta Wale, has dismissed naysayers who predicted his arrest in the UK during Medikal’s concert.

Previously, popular Ghanaian socialite, Showboy, expressed concerns that Shatta Wale might face arrest as his associate, Mona4Reall, did before being extradited to the United States.

Detractors, suspecting Shatta Wale of engaging in fraudulent activities similar to those of his close friend, Mona4Reall, anticipated a comparable fate for him.

Rumors also circulated that the leader of the Shatta Movement had become a target for authorities in both countries, with claims that they were biding their time to apprehend him.

Yet, Shatta Wale, now back in Ghana, has openly criticized those who thought he would be detained in the UK.

Taking to social media, Shatta Wale posted: ‘The feeling when I enter Ghana Oh Shatta wale will be arrested in the Uk..Foolish ppl’.

Shatta Wale joined a host of Ghanaian artistes in London to lend their support to Medikal’s O2 Indigo event.

Kwadwo Nkansah ‘LilWin’ has said ‘I’m seen as a comedian so I am not taken seriously’ by the Ghana Music Awards board and organisers.

Additionally, ‘they assume I already have a reputable name and so there is no need to add to it,’ he said.

The actor, producer and music artiste spoke to Nana Romeo on Accra 100.5 FM.

Noting that it is not so in America, he asserted he had ‘back-to-back hits’ with ‘all the stars’ and so ‘I should have long been nominated or won in categories like New Artiste of the Year and Discovery of the Year’.

‘I’m, however, not taken seriously, so I’m focused on doing what I can,’ he added.

On why he has not confronted the GMAs over the issue, he said: ‘The trophy comes with no money’ and his priority is to ‘get booked to perform at various shows’.

‘If the metal was added to some GHS50,000 or GHS100,000,’ he stressed he would take the snub seriously. ‘We’re moving forward and playing plenty of shows.’

‘Ghana has only five musicians who can rock a stage, and I am one of them,’ LilWin
asserted.

He said some musicians are uninteresting on stage ‘because they are often unserious,’ unlike him who is energised ‘when I see the crowd. I want to do something spectacular that will excite them and have them look forward to another of my performances’.

The Kumawood star conceded he first became known for his movies but ‘when I ventured into music, I took it seriously – God has blessed me’.

The Ghana Music Awards, in its 25th year, is headline-sponsored by Telecel Ghana, and organised by Charterhouse Ghana.

e and support. He also wanted me on the show, so he invited me. I didn’t have any problem with that because we have made music together, and he’s, my friend. It’s just business,” she said.
