Artiste Profile: Meet Yayra Monroe, The New Afrobeat/Afro-dancehall Songstress Who Is Already Taking Over
Yayra Monroe is a female Afrobeat and afro-dancehall artiste who hails from Volta Region, in Ghana. She attended Arcbishop Porter Girls in Takoradi, western region, Ghana.
Since infancy, Yayra has been an ardent music lover and sang in her church. She began her music officially after she went on a freestyle segment on TV called ‘DJ Black Cypher’ and also her involvement in an ‘All Girls Cypher’ got her journey started. She dropped her debut single titled ‘Harder’ which got her massive media appeal in 2014.
When Yayra Monroe was almost getting all the attention in the industry, she put her music career on hold to pursue her second dream of advancing her drawing skill so she furthered her education at Central University and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture. While practising, she continued to pursue her music dream and dropped singles like ‘Pukka’, ‘Shakabumbum’ and ‘BossyGal‘.
Her latest single up for grabs is ‘Lavida Loca’ which is fast gaining roots in the world of Afrobeat in Ghana, and the world as a whole.
She is a versatile artist who raps and sings but Afrobeat and Afro-dancehall are her majors in terms of music genre. She is currently working on an EP titled #IamPurpleEP with her management team RemTru Entertainment dropping in October which happens to be her birthday month.

Ghanaian Reggae Dancehall artist, Tillie Gya, has come to the defense of Shatta Wale following his performance at Vybz Kartel’s Freedom concert. While some fans, particularly those of Stonebwoy, have been mocking Shatta Wale’s performance, Tillie Gya believes this is uncalled for. According to him, Shatta Wale’s inclusion in the concert is a big win for Ghana and Africa, and should be celebrated.
Tillie Gya took to social media to express his disappointment at the behavior of some Stonebwoy fans. He believes that fan bases in Ghana should know when to celebrate and when to compete. Instead of mocking Shatta Wale, fans should be proud of his achievement and the fact that he is putting Ghana on the map.
The debate highlights the intense rivalry between Shatta Wale and Stonebwoy, two of Ghana’s biggest Reggae Dancehall artists. However, Tillie Gya’s comments serve as a reminder that there is room for all artists to shine and make Ghana proud. By celebrating each other’s successes, Ghanaian artists can work together to take the music industry to the next level.
Tillie Gya’s defense of Shatta Wale has sparked a conversation about the need for unity and support among Ghanaian artists and their fans. As the music industry continues to grow, it is essential for fans to recognize and celebrate the achievements of all artists, regardless of their affiliations or rivalries.

“A year of excellence” Joe Kole Outshines All in 2024
In the current ghanaian music space, it will be unfair to give all credit to artists without acknowledging the efforts of music producers.
One producer whom we can not turn a blind eye to his recent works is Wodzrah George, widely known as Joe Kole. From the days of Flowking Stone through to the era of King Paluta and Amerado.
The champion music producer, Joe Kole, has proven to be a timeless producer; recently being behind 80% of hit songs in ghana and being a core influence in the rise of kumerican music vibe.
Top artists such as Strongman, King Paluta, Amerado, Sista Afia, Eno Barony, Rap Father .etc are now big names because of his genius production.
There is no doubt he is a legendary producer and needs to be remembered, applauded, and most importantly, awarded in the coming TGMA.
Rap heavyweight; Eno Barony is out with No Manual album, and Joe Kole produced most of the songs on it.
Joe Kole has shown signs of never slowing down, we hope TGMA acknowledges him. To know him more, you can follow him on
