ABOUT THE RISING PROFILE OF GHANA’S FEMALE DANCEHALL ARTISTE, A.K SONGSTRESS
The first ever collaboration with an African artiste by the ace reggae, ragga and dancehall artiste Sizzla Kalonji is with the forever growing Ghanaian dancehall artiste AK Songstress of Paradise Entertainment. This is the first time such a musical project is been undertaken by any African artiste with the Bobo Shanti reggae artiste, after an intensive lobbying that ensured himself and AK Songstress. The ace musician decided on Ghana finally after carefully monitoring the prowess of the Ghanaian dancehall in the art. The single is dubbed ‘Ghetto Cry’ which touches on certain vital issues that worries the society.
The much awaited international collabo was produced by Riddim Boss, mixed and mastered by the Grammy Award producer Bread Back. The project was recorded and mixed in Jamaica and it has the international touch the industry has always been yearning for. Ghetto Cry comes as the next bang from AK Songstress after the one with Patoranking thereby raising the flag of Ghana high on the international scene with the art of music.

This therefore makes the name songstress (AK) unchallenged when it comes to dancehall in Ghana. The strength of her abilities to write thrusts on doing what will take a few artistes to do.

After two failed marriages, popular actor, Kofi Adjorlolo does not see himself becomimg a husband ever again. “I don’t see the point in getting married again.

I always say to myself that, it is better to remain single than to be married with troubles. I know some people will disagree with me but I have tried it and I know what I’m talking about. “God knows why I am single now. Maybe I wouldn’t have achieved the successes that I have now. I have been single for many years and I used to get worried but not anymore” he said.
Asked if he would marry should he find his soulmate who is willing to sacrifice everything for him, Kofi Adjorlolo said no woman can convince him to marry again after what he went through. “I don’t believe any woman can convince me to marry again because it will not be worth it. Reacting to comments that have connected him with model Afi Antonio, Kofi Adjorlolo said there was nothing between them “I was very surprised when the rumour broke that I was getting married to the lady because she was only a friend whom I met on a movie set. Before becoming an actor, Kofi was a professional musician who played with a number of bands including that of Nigeria’s Victor Uwaifo of “Joromi” fame.
