JOE CREME WHISTLES OUT HIS NEW SINGLE, "MR. HATER"

The young Hi-life/hip-life Artist of 3papers Entertainment, Joe Creme is humbly drugging the ears of his fans to get ready to enjoy his new single tittled "Mr Hater" ft Kobby and produced by Nexus Beats. This song, he promised will be released on the 25th of this month.

In life, every individual has a "HATER" or someone who will dislike you or whatever you do. It is not everyone who loves you on earth. Based on this, Joe Creme has produced a new single to caution his haters and the haters of his fans not to interfere in their issues. They should mind their own business.

Sometimes when you go through hard times or face difficulties, your "HATERS" will sit back and pray that you lose and say stuffs like; "Lets see if he can make it". And when you are able to prove them wrong by overcoming, they start to envy you.

"Am not a loser, i was born to be a winner. blessings de flow like manner and now them start de wonder". Interesting and inspiring lyrics there in the song though.

Fans out there, its time to tell our haters that they should not interfere in our issues. "Di wo lane mu, na mi nso mi ndi me di3 mu".

Expect this new conscious song soon.

JOE CREME



Joe Crème happens to be one of my favorite singers whose real name is Joseph Kwesi Adjei. According to him, he does cellular music. Cellular Music in a sense that he is versatile, but the main music genre he feels comfortable in doing is Afro-Pop, High-life, and Hip life.

As usual, music has been part of him since infancy but started doing professional music in 2006 with his first music group called “Dynamic Boyz”.

In the year 2008, the group broke up and in 2009; the young talented singer joined another group called “Double Wise” out of which evolved a group called “Apex”.

Joe Crème released his first song as a solo artist and an independent musician in 2013 titled, “special one (banky w-Yes / No cover)” ; www.hulkshare.com/5j8o3ljnlzwg

Joe Crème once made me aware that he gets inspiration from some of the Great African Artists who are making Africa proud, like 2face Idibia, Wizkid, Kesse, Kwabena  Kwabena, Davido and  others.
Joseph Kwesi Adjei took the stage name Joe Crème because; Joe is actually the short form of Joseph and Crème is an abbreviation of Creating Rhyme in Excellent Music to Entertain.
In Joe’s music life, financial problem was and is one main challenge he is facing. Money for his recording, and some petty stuff to promote his songs. Friends and sometimes his father discourage him though, but he is not yet ready to put an end to his music because his music is from above. Joe’s mother and a couple of friends and relatives also admire what he is doing and motivate him to do more.

Joe Crème ft. Jay b – Ajoor mi is his new song; www.datafilehost.com/d/2eedc97a#.U57LeKrYcmN. The whole concept behind this song is all about his dream, trying to tell people out there that, no matter what difficulties they go through, they should not lose hope. They should keep on pushing because he went through those times of difficulties and now God is blessing him with seven songs so far and still making progress.


In early 2014, Africa's Most Beautiful also popped out by Mr Judical to which he featured in it; www.worldstarhiplife.com/mr-judical-africas-most-beautiful-ft-joe-creme-prod-by-big-tune.

 Joe is finally using this platform to send a message to all those in the game. He is advising all other underground artists to put God first in everything they do. They should be humble, respect both young and old, should believe in themselves and stay focus, because the road to success is not easy.

ASAP WIZZEL



Among the Underground Musicians participating in the famous upcoming event; Ghana Underground Music Awards, Asap Wizzel is my favorite.

Felix Kofi Jantuah is his name. Jantuah rings a bell right? His uncle is actually the famous Ghanaian boxer; Kofi Jantuah, Alias Pride of Ashanti. The stage name Asap Wizzel was generated from school. His friends use to call him Wizzel and later bored him the name Asap because they say his fashion sense and style of Rap is associated with the popular American Hip-pop Star; ASAP.
 Asap Wizzel is strictly a Hip-Pop artist who had the passion for music and have been following music since he was five. Music is part of him. He grew up with Hip-Pop music and that what raised his music passion. He looks up to most of the Popular Hip-Pop artists like Lil Wanye, Asap Rocky and Meek Mills.


 
He finally released his first song in 2012 tittled swag city (tyga- rack city cover). This song was actually about his involvement in a previous clan called SWAG CITY which he happened to be a member. Sawg City is A CLAN containing talented grounds rappers where he finally separated himself due to some misunderstandings. 

Challenges and hard times on his way, yet he is not ready to give up because his fellow Rap colleages motivate him to keep doing what he does best and and to work hard.
Unlike other Undergrounds, Asap sees Ghana music  to be under progressing and static. He is planning as part of his aims to take Ghana music worldwide.

Asap is finally throwing a piece of advice to his fellow underground artists; they should always strive and prosper, and to his fans, they should always keep supporting Ghana music.

SLIM JOEZY (RAP HIP-POP / HIPLIFE ARTIST)



 
On my usual freaking on the social media, I came across information concerning an award for the Underground Musicians in Ghana. This event known as the GUM AWARDS 2015 is an event organized by Latent Hub to award some talented artists who are on their own to motivate them and also give them a publicity opportunity.

My involvement in this activity has given me the opportunity to come across one talented musician called, Jonathan Osei-Tuffuor whose stage name is SLIM JOEZY.

Slim Joezy made it clear that he is a musician, not an artist and therefore does all genre of Music but performs best in HIP-HOP and HIP-LIFE. He really has a great story to tell, and I guess his fans will be ear-itching to listen. 

Slim Joe as I Call him started singing and performing with most popular artist’s songs on stage when he was actually in primary two. He once put a smile on my face when he told me that during his early primary education period, he goes to sit behind a drinking spot near his house and listen to songs after school, because there was no radio at home. In class three, his mother bought him a Walkman which motivated him a lot to listen more songs from the then popular artists like Obrafour, kwaadei, Obour and others which he performed during school programs. At the age of 12, he started writing his own songs till now. ”So today if I cast my mind back I can see that music is my life”.
He made mention of some artists like T.I saying he likes his way of rap, Yaa Pono saying “he speaks his mind” and Obrafour saying his music always teaches.

So far, Slim Joezy has worked harder with a lot of artists and engineers. He is currently on four songs and is working on his new single. He has worked and recorded in studios like Lay Ham Studio, Toontoom Studios, TML Studio, Hit Makers Records and is featuring in the upcoming Ghana Underground Music Awards Cypher. He is also working with One Love DA Kuborlor and other artists like Jay Shady, Kingskid, Regina, Regardless, and Esias. 

Aside Slim’s progress, he is facing some challenges which he believes he is going to overcome as he keeps pressing harder. He hardly finances his music career and he strives very hard to support himself and his own music since he has no manager. He is currently working on a job to further his education abroad. He is born to be successful, and as a hard worker, it is his plan to have so many different producers all over the world with one serious manager, an engineer, a personal DJ and wants to take African Music to the Apex since his music teaches as well. 
 
Slim Joezy sees the Ghana Music industry to be doing their best but are only interested in the popular artists. He says the Music Industry should also stretch their hands to the young talented underground musicians for they are the falcons to fly Ghana Music higher. He also pictures the Ghana music Industry to become massive and larger and can see Gospel to overshadow others genres some time to come. 

Slim Joezy’s last words are targeted to all other young underground artists like him. They should keep on working harder no matter the challenges they go through. Undergrounds are also not to see each other as enemies and beef each other but come together, collaborate and feature each other to do and produce good music.

SEAN CORPSON (Dancehall Artiste)

                                                               
I was once watching a programme on TV when a neighbour knocked on my door. We began our conversation with football until we changed the topic to music as a follow up to the programme on TV which was about a music discussion. There, my friend told me about his cousin who is into music and wants to introduce him to me to which I agreed. The next day, my neighbour came with his cousin, SEAN CORPSON. There, I listened to a freestyle of this young guy and I enjoyed him to the max. I fell in love with his style.

Sean Corpson entered into music five years ago. Initially, he was into hip-hop but as he started listening to reggae and dancehall, he developed an interest in that genre of music which gradually changed him into dancehall and Rastafarianism. The influence of popcan, mavado, blakk rhino, vybz kartel made him to fall in love with dancehall the more.
I happened to accompany him to the studio to record his second song after listening to his first, and right from the time the unrecorded song was voiced out, I realised and discovered the spirit and the gift within his soul. This song is actually a mixtape of movado’s starbwoy song which he made his own titled “BADMIND”. hulkshare.com/coinsbankye/aud-20130605-wa0005

Sean corpson was adopted as a stage name because he is a big fan of Sean Paul and that made him to take upon himself, Sean Narvel. As time went on, he realised to use his own name which he used his surname alongside “Sean”; SEAN CORPSON.
He personally told me in a conversation that he is not doing music for money but he believes that music is a talent and something good must come out of it if it is done well to motivate and encourage him do more anything. He is satisfied with anything that comes out of his music if only it is good enough to encourage him.

Even though he has faced, and is still facing some challenges as in people including his parents telling him to put music aside and focus and find something better to do, not earning enough to record and do more music and so on, he is been encouraged by a few friends to do more of what he is doing.
So far, he has recorded 3 to 4 songs and he is asking his few fans to expect more from him. His songs are available at  www.Hulkshare.com/sean-corpson , listen and download if you are really impressed with Sean Corpson’s good works.

Personally, i give him a 5 star, for he is good. What will you give, and how will you rate him. Give me a feedback

JURIKID (Hip-hop Artist)

                                                                     
Samuel Opoku porpularly known with the stage name, JURIKID was born in Jamestown on April, 25th 1993.  The name JURIkID is a combination of two separate words; “JURY” and “KID”. Jury as in, panel of judges, and KID as a young dude. So in joining the two, JURIKID gives a clear meaning; a young Rapper who decides for other rappers.
Jurikid is a young independent Hip-Hop artist with about 15 to 20 songs and is still working on a new mixtape. Though he is young, he has been able to work so hard with engeneers like Skriim from Cameroon, DN from Newtown, Abowch from get busy studios, kid dyno from USA and Nii Ayi from E.N.D Sudios. He has also worked with other artistes like Pagez, Rules, Leak, Kay, Willy j Voiceout, Flow, Deenash, Nature and Dee from Ghana. Jordan York, Check Mate, The fool Boys from USA and Ice pik from UK are also other artist outside the country Jurikid has worked with.
Jurikid started writing his own songs in 2007 and did his first recording in 2010. Jurikid related to most of the songs he grew up listening to and those songs happened to be hip-hop. The struggle, the pain, the disappointment from family and friends grew almost everyday and all he had left was songs from Andrea 3000, T.i and jay z. “Hip-hop has been there for me through the good and bad times and i feel that’s where i belong. I will find it hard rapping about parties and afro beat songs because i have not really been there”, he said. He is doing hip-hop because it’s a good culture and he wants to help it grow like it should, here in Ghana and the rest of Africa.

Jurikid’s principle in life is to plan ahead, take risk and do or try doing all by oneself and his advice to the other young independent artists like him should present what they are doing from their hearts and put focus on money last or aside. love God, respect and hardwork is what they need most.

PAGEZ (HIP-HOP ARTIST)


 I happened to join a Whatsapp group chat created by an x (95.1fm) presenter called Eric. Through this group, I met different kinds of people from different places. Here, I came across a young hip-hop artist called Pagez. Pagez got my attention on an instance when I received an audio from him during a chat session, Listened, and my first word after listening to the song was “WOW!” I was fully impressed by his choice of words in his lyrics.
Pagez, whose real name is George Ramos Ankrah hails from Anomabo in the Central Region. He took the name Pagez because to him, Pagez means life. Life consists of different pages. Today is a page, tomorrow will be another Page. So the name Pagez means life and according to him, his name reflects in his music. There is life in his music.
George Ramos Ankrah discovered his music talent when he was young. By then, he used to learn and rap like the popular hip-life and hip-hop artistes like t-blaze, Obrafour, Okomfour Kwaadee, and Reggie Rockstone until he begun to create and put down his own lyrics and do his own rap music. He revealed that his elder brother who is also a very popular hip-life artist in Ghana, AKOO NANA and other American hip-hop artistes like Kanye West were the   biggest influence on him.
Pagez begun doing his own music in 2006-2007, from the JHS entered through the Senior High School and now, he sometimes organise programmes with his colleagues which gives him the platform to perform his music.
In an interview with him he stated, “I chose to do hip-hop because that’s where am good at and can also express myself with hip-hop better than any other genre of music. Hip-hop is a culture and I love living in it”. For the number of songs he has done so far, he can’t count and even some are on the cooking, not ready. His purpose in music is to stand as a great figure to the public and that the young ones will also look up to him as he looked up to other people.
He personally told me that, Ghana Music is growing and he thinks Ghanaians should embrace it from all aspect equally but not on a particular genre of music. Ghanaians should also expect good music from Pagez and has promised to take the country far when he finally gets on his feet.
Go to www.reverbnation.com/pagez to download and listen to this young independent musician and give me a feedback or prove me wrong when I say he is GOOD. Pagez is GOOD.
