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.
