Here we go again! Yvonne Nelson has blasted Ghanacelebrities.Com on her facebook profile. Gosh, we are deeply hurt. Hell No! Definitely, we will not be browbeaten by her blast, slur and choice of words. After all, this is not the first time we have received an open blast from a celebrity. Lydia Forson did it and we are still here. Aint we?
The blast by Yvonne Nelson who is currently believed to be holidaying in Sweden, glued to the Ghanaian football star Derek denotes that “They All Read Us”.
The ‘mad’ man Kwaw Kesse (real name Emmanuel Botwe) who was the first to trash this year’s Ghana Music Awards nomination has thrown another jab at the organizer of the event, this time describing as a ‘Yawa’ (literally meaning Bogus) Awards.
Abodam said this during an exclusive interview on Peace FM’s Entertainment Review” programme, Kwaw who is currently on holidays in America told host of the programme Kwasi Aboagye from his Washington DC base that there was too much “Kuluulu” in the nomination this year.
He also explained why he tore the nomination list on the day of the launch at Gold Tulip Hotel in Accra on February 26. “When I went through the nomination I realized that No! This is not the Ghana Music Awards I know, because the whole thing seems like a big joke to me. There are several songs which made waves in the past year but they were not nominated, so I saw that there was some bias going on”, Kwaw stated.
Hammer of the Last 2, born and named Edward Nana Poku Osei has turned ‘mere’ artistes into prolific ones. People who until meeting Hammer would have been in the musical wilderness without any hope whatsoever are sought after now.
Ghana has a hot new talent blowing up the music scene and its airwaves, in the form of Tiffany. This new rising star has no doubt begun to establish herself as a force to be reckoned with on the music circuit. Although she hasn’t been on the music circuit for too long, she has already rubbed shoulders with the very best of the best, including performing with Fat Joe and Omarion during their respective concerts in Ghana. Her talent has also seen her grace various concerts, such as the ‘Ghana Rocks’ concert and, ‘Night with Naija.’
Though she may be enjoying a formidable amount of success now, the road to fame was not a particularly smooth one for Tiffany- a high-school drop-out, she has had to endure a long and arduous battle before getting where she is today.
If you didn’t know, now you know D-Black and Kwaku T are one of the best Hip Hop artiste to spring out of Ghana rapping in the queen’s language so fluently.
“Kwaku T and I are the first english spitting rappers to be nominated for Ghana Music Awards” said D-Black.
It is not strange that the pair had a nomination in the Ghana Music Awards. The duo is nominated in the HipLife/Hip Hop Song of the Year category with their track ‘Breathe’. But the nomination happens to be their first ever nominations in the GMAs.
Rather calm looking D-Black revealed to GhanaCelebrities.com “This is our first nomination, our first ever nomination, I think this year the music is changed, so definitely our nomination is a step in the right direction”.
Oh so it was true! We were chipped the information by a certain loyal reader by name Becca that, Yvonne Nelson left Ghana on the night of 5th April for Europe to take a lil break. Girlfriend has just posted some photos from her vacation and she is looking good. Yvonne certainly deserves some time … Read more

Raging controversies surrounding the 2010 Ghana Music Awards like any other year, seem not to be unending, as Nima-based hiplife trio, VIP have just been struck out of this year’s award.
Mr. Fred Kyei Mensah (Fredyma) of Fredyma Studios and CEO of Minor Rhythms Band disclosed this on Peace FMs Entertainment Review program. According to Fredyma, who is also a member of the Planning Committee of Ghana Music Awards, VIP was taken off because the Committee realized that their album was not released within the GMA calendar year, which is from 1st November 2008 to 31st November 2009.
Movie premieres have progressively become an integral part of our movie industry and its interest has crept into the minds of movie lovers within a very short period of time. Recently, movies after movies have witnessed a number of press previews which are subsequently followed by grand premieres.
The press preview is aimed at giving the press (friends from the media) the opportunity to actually have a first hand information about the movie, pass criticisms and various observations about the movie for the public to know what exactly they will be paying their hard earned money to watch when finally the day of the grand premiere comes.
