According to the artiste, Accra’s growing entertainment industry urgently needs well-structured, purpose-built venues to host concerts, festivals, and global cultural events. He stressed that with the right land allocation and public-private collaboration, investors and creatives can transform Ghana into a major events hub in Africa.

Popular social media commentator Bongo Ideas has ignited intense debate online after claiming that a top Ghanaian musician who released an album in 2025 will allegedly be picked up by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) before the end of the year.
Bongo Ideas Claims Top Ghanaian Musician Faces FBI Arrest Before End of 2025 8
In a cryptic post that has since gone viral, Bongo Ideas asserted that the unnamed artist would not be the only one affected, adding that “others will follow.” The statement, though lacking evidence or specific names, has triggered widespread speculation within Ghana’s music and entertainment industry.
As of now, no official confirmation has been issued by the FBI, Ghanaian authorities, or any artist management team to support the claim. Industry insiders have cautioned the public against jumping to conclusions, stressing that allegations of this magnitude must be backed by verified facts.
Several top Ghanaian musicians released highly successful albums in 2025, making it difficult to identify who the claim refers to. Fans of multiple artists have taken to social media to defend their favorites, calling the statement reckless and damaging.
While Bongo Ideas is known for controversial predictions—some of which have proven accurate in the past—many observers argue that unsubstantiated claims could harm reputations and Ghana’s growing global music image.
Until credible evidence or official statements emerge, the allegation remains speculative.
Ghanaian rap heavyweight Strongman, known privately as Osei Kwaku Vincent, has made it clear that he has no intention of jumping on lyrical trends that do not reflect his reality—especially the growing wave of “scammer rap” and drug-influenced music among some emerging artistes.
Strongman Says He Won’t Rap About Scamming or Drugs: “I’ve Never Lived That Life” 11
Speaking in an interview on Angel FM in Kumasi, Strongman emphasized that authenticity remains the backbone of his artistry. For him, rapping about fraud, drugs, or street crime would not only be misleading but also untrue to who he is.
According to Strongman, music is most powerful when it stems from genuine life experiences. That is why he prefers to focus on themes like love, hate, struggle, celebration, and everyday realities that align with his personal journey.
“If I rap about scamming or drugs, it will look funny and fake. I’ve never lived that life,” he said.
Strongman further explained that the environment he stays in naturally filters into his music. His circle, he revealed, is made up of “gentle people” who are not involved in drugs, alcoholism, or criminal behavior. As a result, he doesn’t get exposed to such lifestyles—and he has no desire to falsely portray them in his songs.
“My circle is full of gentle people who don’t even drink alcohol, so they won’t expose me to certain things for me to rap about them,” he added.
The rapper noted that while he enjoys party-themed songs occasionally—especially now that his friends sometimes invite him to social outings—his core will always remain clean, honest, and rooted in personal truth.
Strongman’s stance has been widely praised by fans who see him as one of the few artistes committed to preserving lyrical integrity in the Ghanaian rap space.
Ghanaian rising star Showboy is reportedly locked in for 20-plus live shows this December 2025, marking one of the busiest holiday circuits for any Ghanaian artist this year. According to promoters and weekly event listings, Showboy — buoyed by his energetic performance at Shay Concert 2025 — has become one of the most in-demand acts of the “Detty December” season.
Showboy Gets Booked Over 20 Shows in December 2025 Alone 14
🎯 Why December Is Huge for Showboy
His breakout performance at Shay Concert 2025 significantly raised his profile among party-goers and event organisers. The high demand for live shows during Ghana’s festive “December in GH” calendar pushed many venues and promoters to book Showboy, capitalizing on his growing popularity. Multiple event platforms list him as headliner for December parties, club nights, and festivals — a rare feat for an artist at his stage.
✅ What’s at Stake (for Showboy & Promoters)
For Showboy: This schedule could be a major turning point — if he delivers consistent performances and builds his audience, he might become a top-tier name in Ghana’s music scene by 2026. For Promoters: Booking Showboy for many shows is a gamble; while demand is high, competition with A-list artists and venue-overload risks could affect turnout — a problem noted by industry veterans about December gigs. For Fans: It means multiple opportunities to catch live energy and success stories — but also possibly crowded events, high ticket demand, or rapid sell-outs.

Ghanaian-American alté-pop sensation Amaarae has officially unveiled her much-anticipated third studio album, Black Star, today (August 8, 2025), via Interscope Records.
A Celebration of Identity, Joy & Community
In interviews leading up to the release, Amaarae explained that Black Star is more than just music — it’s a communal space built for joy, dance, and shared experience. She said she wanted people to “go out, dance and have a good time,” even as she tackles deeper themes rooted in heritage and self-expression.
Amaarae Drops Bold, Diasporic New Album Black Star 21
The album title is a powerful nod to Ghana’s national symbol, the Black Star — connecting her diasporic identity to a legacy of Pan-African pride.
Lead Single: S.M.O. – A Sonic Fusion
To launch the era, Amaarae released the single “S.M.O.” (acronym for “Slut Me Out”), which she says represents her strength in genre-fusion. The track blends 1980s Ghanaian highlife (inspired by legend Ata Kak), kpanlogo drums, zouk melodies, and Detroit club basslines.
“I feel like the new Donna Summer mixed with Control‑era Janet Jackson… that’s all I want to do this summer: make people dance and feel things,” Amaarae said.
The music video, filmed in Ghana and directed by Omar Jones, amplifies themes of cultural pride, liberation, and sensuality.
A Genre-Defying, Globally-Minded Sound
Listeners of Black Star can expect a rich tapestry of styles — from Euro techno and baile funk to Afrobeats and deep house. According to critics, the album masterfully weaves her Ghanaian roots with global dance energy, resulting in a “pleasure-soaked victory lap” for her artistic evolution.
Collaborations on the album contribute to its expansive feel: she links up with artists like Bree Runway, PinkPantheress, and even Naomi Campbell on one track, showcasing her ability to bridge music, fashion, and culture.
From Fountain Baby to Black Star
This release marks a turning point from her 2023 Fountain Baby album. While Fountain Baby explored introspection, sensuality, and her personal world, Black Star leans into outward expression and connection.
Amaarae’s recent Coachella 2025 performance — where she made history as the first Ghanaian artist to perform a solo set — gave fans a preview of this new direction.
Why Black Star Matters
It’s a cultural reunion: The title and much of the sound draw from Ghana’s musical history and Ghanaian identity. It’s dance-forward and liberating: The record encourages listeners to feel, move, and celebrate. It’s genre-fluid: Amaarae continues to defy categorization, blending alté, pop, club music, and African rhythms. It’s global: With collaborators from across the music world, Black Star feels rooted in Ghana but meant to travel world-wide.
Final Word
With Black Star, Amaarae doesn’t just drop another album — she delivers a statement. It’s an ode to her dual identity, a party for her community, and a bold step forward in her musical journey. As she continues to push boundaries, this project cements her place not just as a Ghanaian voice, but a global pop visionary.
