Keche’s song is from “Maame Water”

A prophet, Joshua Awuah Kwaku Kodon aka Odeefuor Pae Mu Ka has prophesised doom for hiplife duo, Keche over their latest hit song, Sokode.

According to the founder and General Overseer of Baiddo Gospel International Church at Akomadan in the Ashanti Region, unless the duo seek divine intervention, Sokode will be the last hit track for the group adding they will languish in obscurity for the next two years.

Speaking on Adom FM’s Drive Time show, Ofie Kwanso, Prophet Kodon explained that the hugely popular Sokode is a product of the spiritual realm and was first launched by the mystical sea goddess known in local parlance as ‘Maame Water’ before Keche released the song.

He claimed God had revealed to him that the song had been charmed resulting in it being irresistible to anybody who hears it, and attributed the popularity and immense airplay Sokode is enjoying now to the charms.

But Keche, comprising Andrew Kofi Cudjoe, aka Keche De, and Joshua Ampah aka Keche Pa, has rubbished Prophet Kodon’s claims that their song came from the spiritual realm.

 Keche Pa told Adom Entertainment News that they began writing the song while they were returning home from a show at Sokode (a town in the Volta Region) and completed it later on to make it the hit.

He revealed that they were inspired by Sokode’s (the town) signpost while they were on their way to the town. They played around with the name and Sokode (the song) was crafted out of it so there is no way Prophet Kodom can be right.

The prophet however stuck to his guns and reiterated that Keche can be redeemed from the doom that lies ahead of them only when they seek the mercies of God.

Not stopping there, the prophet also had some very ‘interesting’ revelations about Ghana’s hottest rapper Sarkodie.

He claimed a 13-year old girl would be planted in Sarkodie’s life with whom he would have sexual relations and he would be accused of defilement.

Prophet Kodon said the plot has been hatched by a close friend of the rapper who is seeking his downfall.

Other celebrities like Lapaz Toyota star, Guru and Babie, the bubbly host of TV3 entertainment show, Hot Gossip all had their share of Odeefuor Pae Mu Ka’s prophecies.

He revealed that Babie would be shot dead by her fiancé resulting from a misunderstanding between them.

He however declined to give details of the revelation he had about Guru explaining that Guru’s family had solicited his help so they are taking measures spiritually to avert the situation.

The prophet also cautioned Ghanaians especially Christians and religious leaders not to encourage the Azonto dance because it is devilish and is sent to enslave the people.

Money Really Isn’t a Problem For Sarkodie, Check Out His New House And Car




Sarkodie has done something that no Ghanaian artist has ever done musically. Sarkodie has played more shows, toured almost around the world and one can tell none of them was free (can never be). I recently heard rumors that Sarkodie ditched his ‘life-starter’ Toyota Matrix and got himself a new ‘whip’ and also bought a new home at ‘Ashalley Botwe’. So far, no one needs to be told LIFE IS GOOD for Mr. Obidi. I’m sure he will always be proud of himself.
I just got hold of this picture and it’s Hammer of The last 2′s birthday today. One look at the picture and you can tell it’s a new home and new car. Who owns it? Hammer Or Sarkodie? Defo Mr. Obidi. God has really blessed you man and you should be proud of yourself. Check out the picture below.

Becca and Efya at war?

Efya      &   Becca 
Two of Ghana’s top female musicians, Becca and Efya are believed to be at each others throats for what has been described by many in showbiz circle as a clash of the titans. The rumour mile has it that Efya actually left her group “Iren and Jane” to take on Becca because at a point she realized that the Daa k3 daa singer had virtually taken overvthe female side of the music industry. On the hand, we were told by a close source that Becca sees Efya as a crawling tortoise hence copying her ‘Becca’ style was to ingratiate herself as ‘Efya’.

Both artistes have five nominations in the upcoming VGMA which is expected to a hotly contested affair. So who rocks, Becca or Efya? They all can sing with a live band and have aquite similar way of dressing. So is Efya really copying Becca’s style or she’s doing better on a different dimension?

Over the last two years, Becca has been the highest paid female artiste in Ghana but is being given a run for her money by Efya. Well, the VGMA will determine the best especially where both top female songstress are categorized; ‘Artiste of the Year, The Best Female Vocal Artiste and The Song Writer of the Year.’

Both had their breakthroughs from reality shows, Becca from “Mentor 2” whilst Efya gained prominence from “Stars of the future 1.

A - PLUS
One distinctive feature of many Ghanaians is the ability to use traditional knowledge to recreate timeless conversation that has the ability to impact individuals as well as communities. This feature is more pronounced in individuals who have chosen performance arts i.e music making, acting, dancing as a profession. One of such powerful musicians is A PLUS, a top Ghanaian gem who is fast establishing himself as an authority on hiplife music that highlights national and community concerns and advocate for appropriate interventions/solutions by the government. A PLUS,credited with Agye Gon, Letters to the President and the West in addition to his latest political controvertial hitz Ebob)ba tracks is one of the Ghanaian celebrities on Facebook, , and today we share his wall updates. In his updates, he shares a folktale that highlights man’s greed for power, obsession with corruption, and moral decadence in society all using animals as the characters….Is he becoming Ghana’s George Orwell?

ASEM's Label Addresses Claims Of Stolen Beat

WBDN RECORDS would like to inform media houses as well as the general public know that stories circulating about Asem stealing a song is absolutely false. The instrumental used on the ‘SHOW SOMETHING’ song featuring DJ Black and South African rapper JR was acquired by DJ Black of ToonToom Media and Joy FM with permission from purpman and producer of the instrumental.
 
There was an understanding that different artistes would be asked to use the beat and purpman would be featured on one of the versions which he agreed and was very exited about. Upon release of the song, information reached WBDN Records and ToomToom media about certain people throwing insults on DJ Black and especially Asem on Blackberry and twitter for using the beat but these insults were ignored because there was permission to use the beat.

WBDN records therefore got in touch with one Kweku Okanta, manager of purpman who was championing the reign of insults. After several unpleasant insults from Kweku Okanta to Kofi Korang Director of WBDN Records almost as if it was intentional provocation, Director of WBDN Records who felt Kweku was beign very unprofessional, immediately asked Kweku for his business case bec ause WBDN records has no time for insults and name calling.

Kweku then asked for a specified amount of money as was expected saying that Asem is a big artiste and he has been told by some people in Ghana that Asem has endorsement deals. He also added that there were some media people who are eager to publish articles and give Asem bad press if WBDN records didn’t comply.

There was also threats to sue Asem for copyright infringement. This being a preferred course of action for WBDN records , Kofi Korang asked for copyright details from Kweku Okanta and also asked WBDN records agents in the USA and UK to search the worldwide repertoire database and find out if there is a Purpman or a track title Mr. Okanta claims to have copyrights to. There is no such record.

Upon realising that the plot had failed Kweku Okanta then revealed that the issue was not something he really wanted to pursue. He added there are some ’journalists’ and celebrities in Ghana who are making moves and putting pressure on him and purpman to act as such.
He added purpman is still eager to work with Asem and DJ Black in the future. This is not the first time people have tried to defame Asem. From the onset of Asem’s career his management has been receiving complaints from some djs that they sometimes get threatening calls telling them to stop playing Asem’s music.
In Dec 2010 WBDN received an anonymous call saying that there was a group of people in the entertainment industry plotting something really malicious against Asem.

WBDN therefore would like to use this medium to let people know that Asem who is currently promoting his new album SOLID GROUND with hit single bye bye featuring Kwabena kwabena is focused on his goal of international acclaim and has no time to meddle in schemes and plots against him as an artiste.
