Zylofon Music has completely disassociated itself from tribalistic comments passed by employee Willie Roi, head of A & R for Artist Development.
Roi, as we reported earlier today, made a series of posts attacking Stonebwoy, one of which he described him as an ‘ewe eagle’ (whatever that means).
The post was roundly criticized for being insulting and ethnocentric and right on cue, thehas distanced themselves from it.
In a statement, the company stated that they do not share those sentiments that he put forth and added that as a signee, Stonebwoy deserves to be treated with respect.

Full statement below…
The attention of Zylofon Music has been drawn to a Facebook post by Willi Roi, A&R for Artiste Development – on Livingstone Etse Satekla (Stonebwoy), which seems to prejudice an ethnic group.
Zylofon Music, a label under Zylofon Media Limited, disassociates itself from the flippant commentary from its Executive, noting that the unfortunate post does not in any way reflect the position of the label.
Stonebwoy is a Zylofon Music –recording artiste and must be accorded the same level of respect shown to all the other acts signed to the label.
Zylofon Music promotes unity, progression and peaceful co-existence in the elevation of Ghanaian music and its purveyors, and frowns on any form of discrimination, racial hatred, ethnic or inter-ethnic hatred.
