Kirani Ayat calls out gov’t as Nana Addo uses his video without his consent
The Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) claims that it requested permission before utilizing portions of “Guda” in the “Visit Ghana” ad through a “bespoke creative firm,” to which rapper and singer Kirani Ayat has responded.
The company posted the article on Instagram on September 28.
Kirani Ayat sent a press release to the Authority in response to the announcement.

“I would like to categorically state that NO agency has any RIGHTS whatsoever to my intellectual property,” he said.
The rapper emphasized that he had not granted the group any permission to utilize his video for promotional purposes.
“I, Kirani Ayat, have NOT granted any agency the authority to use my likeness or carry out any work on my behalf.”
The message went on to emphasize that the Ghana Tourism Authority had not disclosed the agency’s identity.
The letter ended by warning the group to disclose the identity of the agency and the signed contracts that formalize the arrangement with the Ghana Tourism Authority.
This comes after rapper Kirani Ayat criticized the government for appropriating parts of his music video, GUDA, without the rapper’s or the music video director, David Nicol-Sey, seeking permission.

Tillie Gya Defends Shatta Wale, Slams Stonebwoy Fans for Mockery
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
