“My Sound,” a song by Stonebwoy, an award-winning Ghanaian international musician, has been featured as a soundtrack on “Love & Hip Hop, Miami TV Show.”
The song was featured in the season 5 premiere of the hit docu-soap and reality television franchise, which aired on Monday (August 14). The show highlights the bold, edgy, gorgeous, and diverse Miami city as well as delves into its rich cultural heritage while featuring tales of striving for stardom in the hip-hop, Latin, and reggaeton music scenes.
“My Sound” which features Legendary Jamaican dancehall singer Shaggy was commercially released the 12th track off Stonebwoy’s Billboard-rated fifth studio album “5Th Dimension”.
Produced by Praiz, a Nigerian musician and sound engineer, the captivating track effortlessly blends reggae, dancehall, and afrobeat influences. It is critically acclaimed as a unifying force, bridging the gap between the African natives and the people of the Caribbean.
Comprising 17 songs, “5Th Dimension” is the BET-award winner and GRAMMY nominee’s first collection under Universal Music Group and DefJam Recordings. The album blends pop and pop-related themes with genres like Afrobeats, reggae, dancehall, amapiano, and folk.
It receives guest vocal contributions from Legendary composer and performer Angelique Kidjo, Afrobeats forerunners Tiwa Savage, Davido, and Oxlade, as well as Amapiano singer Maphorisa. Leading up to its release, the album was previewed by a number of singles, notably “Far Away” and “More Of You.” Stonebwoy is currently on tour, taking the new album on the road in the United States of America and Canada.
Leaving a trail with eight sold-out shows thus far and euphoric crowds in Duluth, Guyana, Boston, Hartford, New York, Washington, Ardmore, and more, the tour forms part of the singer’s effort to showcase his extraordinary talent while reconnecting with his core fans.

Organisers of Rhythms On Da Runway have announced November 28, 2026 as the date for the 16th edition of the event, to be held at the Palms Convention Centre.
This year’s edition, themed: ‘UNBOUND: Because You’ve Got Style’, is focused on breaking barriers in fashion and creating space for all.
According to the Chief Executive Officer of Nineteen57 Events, Shirley Emma Tibilla, affectionately called Cookie Tee, the focus of this edition is to give everyone an opportunity to express themselves without barriers.
She told The Spectator that as a leading fashion brand in the country and beyond, they want to open doors for people regardless of their colour, size and abilities among others.
Described by the BBC as “the biggest cultural exposé in Africa,” Rhythms On Da Runway returns this year as a celebration of fashion, music and individual expression without limits.
Organisers say for years fashion has been shaped by narrow ideas of who belongs on the runway, with certain body types, ages and abilities placed at the centre while many others are left out. UNBOUND seeks to open that picture.
This year’s runway will welcome people with different abilities, backgrounds, body types and personal stories. The theme will influence model casting, the collections, the stories told through the clothes and the way guests experience the event.
Beyond the runway, ‘Unbound’ will create room for young people to learn from established designers, gain practical experience and explore careers within fashion and the wider creative industry.
It will also open conversations around adaptive fashion, accessible event design, talent discovery, mentorship and employment.
The 2026 edition will bring together fashion designers and music stars from Ghana and across the African diaspora, with strong collections, live performances and an all-star cast of celebrity models.
The event will also feature the Black Star Awards, which will honour public figures shaping Africa’s future through leadership and contributions to the continent’s Orange Economy.
Organisers say the list of participating designers, performing artists, award recipients and other event details will be announced in the coming weeks.

Veteran Ghanaian gospel musician Bernice Offei has passed on Saturday August 12, 2026.
She was 63.
The news of her demise flashed through social media on Saturday, prompting an outpouring of grief from musicians, fans and members of the Christian community, who have since paid tribute to her distinguished career.
She gained strong reputation as a singer, songwriter and minister whose music transcended generations.
Some of her popular songs include ‘Kaa She Gbeyei,’ ‘It’s By Grace,’ ‘Nyame Kokroko’ and ‘N’adom Ara Kwa.’
Her contribution to the growth of gospel music in Ghana was recognised in 2009 when she won the Best Female Vocal Performance and Songwriter of the Year awards at the Ghana Music Awards, now known as the Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
Beyond music, Mrs Offei distinguished herself in academia and professional life. She attended Achimota School before earning an MPhil in Crop Science from the University of Ghana and a Master’s Degree in Information Technology from University College London in the United Kingdom.
Mrs Offei was married to Prof. Samuel Kwame Offei, a former Pro-Vice Chancellor of the University of Ghana, and the couple had two children.
Her death comes days after she was reported missing but was later found safe.
Mrs Offei leaves behind a rich music legacy that continues to inspire faith, hope and resilience among generations of listeners. -GNA
