Forget the cold reception, we achieved<br />
what we wanted in Nigeria — Zylofon Media<br />
COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR of<br />
Zylofon Media, Samuel Atuobi Baah,<br />
well known as Sammy Flex, has finally<br />
spoken on the reception and experience<br />
Ghanaian musicians received on the 24th<br />
August this year in Nigeria at the concert<br />
launch of Zylofon Media and Menzgold.<br />
Sammy Flex speaking to Zionfelix on<br />
Radio Universe said the Nigerians were<br />
not familiar with the Ghanaian artists so<br />
they could not be blamed.<br />
He also added that he won’t accept<br />
the rumors circulating that the Nigerians<br />
were mean to their artists because some<br />
few African artists have also received<br />
cold reception in Ghana because their<br />
songs were no big.<br />
“Our songs that are played in this<br />
town and the artists we sent there to perform<br />
was the problem because most of<br />
the Nigerians didn’t know the songs and<br />
were not familiar with our artists which<br />
is normal so it’s not a challenge,” he told<br />
Zionfelix on the Brunch2Lunch entertainment<br />
show.<br />
He cited an example that ‘we were in<br />
this town when Nasty C, a big act in<br />
South Africa came to perform but nobody<br />
moved to his songs because his<br />
songs were not big here. This has also<br />
happened to other foreign acts so I<br />
won’t say it’s a challenge,” he added.<br />
The Head of Communication at the<br />
entertainment firm revealed that the<br />
concert was not purposely to challenge<br />
the Nigerian artiste in the country but<br />
was to advertise the Zylofon Media and<br />
Menzgold brand to the people in the<br />
country.<br />
The host of Zylofon FM’s morning<br />
entertainment show further noted that<br />
after several analogies, he can say that<br />
the Zylofon media artistes not being noticed<br />
is acceptable because it will succor<br />
them to maneuver their plan the next<br />
time.<br />
Sammy also noted that their launch<br />
and concert at the Convention Centre<br />
was very successful though their artists<br />
had cold reception from the crowd.<br />
“Zion I would say this concert was<br />
not to compete with the Nigerians but it<br />
was rather a concert to promote Zylofon<br />
Media. We the members of Zylofon<br />
Media are pleased with the mileage we<br />
had in Nigeria because of the event.<br />
“It’s the fans of the artist that’s worried<br />
but not us. We now know the strategy<br />
to use the next time and also in our<br />
operation.” Sammy maintained.<br />
Fashion tips every<br />
lady should know<br />
YOU KNOW how sometimes you just know things,<br />
but don’t realise that you do until someone mentions<br />
it out loud. That’s just the case with fashion too, and<br />
that’s why we always need tips from experts, fashionists<br />
and designers to validate what we know. But,<br />
often while reading about stuff, we realise how we<br />
miss tiny details and how other people have a different<br />
perspective to offer! Like they say, the devil is in<br />
the details. If you were wishing that it’d be nice to<br />
have a list that states it all out for you, we’ve got you<br />
covered. So, today, let’s take a look at 50 Fashion<br />
Tips that will come in handy for every girl – whether<br />
you are a college girl or a lady boss. Ready? Let’s do<br />
this.<br />
1. For beginners, know your body type<br />
Knowing your body type is the basic thing to<br />
know about yourself. Everything works around this,<br />
so this is one of the biggest fashion tips or advise<br />
that anyone can give you.<br />
2. Wear the right bra<br />
Wearing the right intimates is essential for both<br />
health and fashion. You need to know your size and<br />
when to wear what; basically, you need to know it all.<br />
3. Invest In Good Lingerie<br />
Sometimes it is nice to indulge and treat yourself<br />
to good lingerie.<br />
4. Own classics – Trench, Leather,<br />
Denim Jackets<br />
Classics like these are timeless, and every girl<br />
needs them in her closet. They come in handy all<br />
through the year in one way or another.<br />
5. Scarves – Come a long way in all<br />
seasons<br />
Woolen, silk, satin, linen, blanket, etc. – you need<br />
it all. Some work wonders in winters, while some are<br />
for summer and the others are perfect for fall fashion.<br />
Janet Jackson’s<br />
necklace in<br />
‘Made for Now’<br />
video designed<br />
by Ghanaian<br />
ONE THING that stands out<br />
in Janet Jackson’s costume<br />
for her ‘Made for Now’<br />
music video is her necklace.<br />
The short video clip which was done in<br />
remembrance of Michael Jackson (Janet’s<br />
late brother) on his birthday sees<br />
the queen styled in beautiful<br />
neck, head and hand jewelry.<br />
The neck piece<br />
was made by<br />
Ghana’s award winning<br />
jewelry designer,<br />
Aphia<br />
Sakyi.<br />
Titled ‘Yaa Asantewaa,’<br />
the necklace<br />
is taken from<br />
her-soon-to-be-released<br />
Summer/Harmattan<br />
2018 collection<br />
’50 Shades of Grey’ at Accra<br />
Fashion Week 2018 in October.<br />
Janet Jackson’s new video ‘Made For<br />
Now’ is a fun up tempo music that takes you<br />
back to the old days when urban RnB had<br />
fun and life.<br />
•Janet<br />
Jackson<br />
The sister of the late great Michael Jackson<br />
stunned viewers in her heavily style<br />
African attire throughout the video.<br />
The mega star recently took to instagram<br />
to post her first instagram video that sees a<br />
humorous spoof version of her auditions<br />
for the ‘Made For Now’ video featuring instagram<br />
stars such as @KingBach and<br />
@BlameItOnKway.<br />
Janet Jackson plays the role<br />
of a queen that approves<br />
the talents before her.<br />
The collaboration<br />
might just be the most<br />
iconic Ghanaian/Western<br />
fashion collaboration<br />
in today’s<br />
Ghanaian fashion<br />
world.<br />
The late Michael Jackson<br />
was also once adorned<br />
African clothes on his visit<br />
to Ghana in 1995.<br />
However, a modern version of<br />
African fashion and a modern Africa<br />
can see this collaboration not just as an acknowledgement<br />
of African roots, but an inspiration<br />
for African future.
