It’s been long I heard real dance hall song made in Ghana – Kelvyn Boy
Is it that Ghanaian dancehall acts have stopped making real dancehall songs or they are making ‘diluted’ ones because Kelvyn Boy can’t feel their presence in his playlist.
Though Ghana can boast of several dancehall acts, including Stonebwoy, Shatta Wale, Jupitar among others who are still doing music very actively, Kelvin Boy says he hasn’t heard new real Ghanaian dancehall song for a long time now.
“It been a long time, It’s been a very long time I heard a real dancehall song in Ghana. Be true to yourself. When was the last time you heard a dancehall song in Ghana?” The ‘Mea’ singer asked Jay Foley on Joy Prime whilst emphasizing that all African artistes are now doing Afrobeat.Kelvyn Boy was answering a technical question on why all new songs from Ghanaian artistes have almost the same Beat Per Minute. He noted that all artistes across Africa now sound very similar and it is an indication that they do the same genre.According to him “African musicians are now doing only one genre of music which is the Afrobeat and that’s what every artist in Africa needs to admit”. Do you agree with Kelvyn Boy?

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
