In an interview with Adwen the Love Doctor on eTV Ghana's 'In Bed with Adwen', he commented that just as everything has its negatives and positives, sending of nudes to partners in a relationship is only one percent good and ninety-nine percent bad. He instanced that for a couple that is dating and have not yet met, nudes are only beneficial for both parties especially those who have preferences in penis or vagina size, to know the size of the each other's private parts before deciding to get seriously involved. Talking of the negative aspect of sending nudes, he said, "Men are very fast. If we're talking on aa video call and we ask you to show us your vagina, we can record the call without you knowing. Also for those who use iPhones, they can tell you to send and that they'll delete but even if they delete the picture, they can still retrieve it later from their iCloud". Per this, he advised that sending of nudes in a relationship is not the best thing to do as it carries more negative impacts than positive. He noted that the fact that some couples send nudes to each other does not mean it is an act that needs to be copied by all, hence people should not fall for that stupid type of love as her termed it.

Some brand ambassadorial jobs are too stressful
According to him, not all ambassadorial deals generate income and they are not always as rosy as they seem. He said this during an interview with Nana Quasi Wusu of Y97.9FM Takoradi's Dryve of Your Lyfe show. "Some of these deals are very stressful. Sometimes, they can clash with your show or something that you have doing. The IOM deal for instance does not pay. It's like you're a goodwill ambassador so with that, the motivation is for instance, when they're going somewhere, they take care of your expenses. It's not like the Betway deal where they bring you your money when time is up", he said. That he does not pitch proposals to companies for ambassadorial deals but receives them as and when, and even for some of the companies or brands he has worked with, he did not know about them till they contacted him. Kofi Kinaata has signed ambassadorial deals with brands like Betway and Verna Active among others, as well as supports IOM Ghana's Aware Migrants Information Campaign as its Goodwill ambassador, encouraging the Ghanaian youth to value their lives and not take unnecessary risks in chasing illusionary greener pastures.

Although Shatta Wale performed at Sarkodie's "Black Love" virtual concert which was held in August this year, he missed the Rapperholic concert. Held at the Grand Arena, Accra International Conference Centre, on Friday, December 25, the 8th concert was stormed by music fans in and outside Ghana, particularly SarkNatives – the official fan army of the two-time BET Award winner. The concert saw hundreds of fans of the musician throng the venue to witness another historic moment. Top stars like Joey B, King Promise, Sista Afia and more made guest appearances Shatta Wale – who resolved his grudge with Sarkodie at "Black Love" virtual concert – was nowhere to be found. According to Sarkodie, it was due to performance fee – which he says the controversial dancehall star demanded USD250,000 when his team reached out to him. He revealed this during a friendly banter with Shatta Wale on Twitter on Saturday, December 26. It all started when on-air personality Jay Forley shared a throwback photo with Shatta Wale at the 2017 Rapperholic concert. Sarkodie quoted the tweet, saying: "Rapperholic". Shatta Wale quoted the tweet, saying Sarkodie missed him and further congratulated him on the show. "Abi you miss me; congrats last night Rapperholic," he tweeted. Sarkodie quickly responded, saying it's because he demanded a huge cash for performance. "Man call you you say last price 250k dollar …. Ma te. We shall see," he tweeted. It's unclear if he is just joking but Shatta Wale isn't wrong if he charges his fellow musician performance fees. It's been the tradition for years and this won't be bad precedent in anyway.

According to the "Small Small" hitmaker, he has never cheated on his wife and he wants to write a 'tell it all' book in his 60s where he will be proud telling people that he had never cheated on his wife. "When a lady WhatsApp me 'hi love', I respond with 'hello sis' to let you understand that I'm not going there with you," Okyeame Kwame told Gifty Anti on The Stand Point. He said in order to avoid cheating, he doesn't go to the club because he fears how ladies dance lately. "Sometimes too, I do not go to the nightclub because of the way girls dance these days. When you go to the nightclub and you are not careful and you drink a little, you will fall for them. And so, I don't put myself in harm's way.” He continued: "I am also focused. I have decided that when I'm 60 years old and I write my 'tell it all' book, I want to be able to say I was married for 40 years and never cheated. I think keeping my eye on the price is what is important.” He described his wife as an amazing, beautiful, intelligent and caring. "But I want to say I'm married to an amazing woman. She's beautiful. She cooks, she cleans, takes care of the house, intelligent" he added. Source | Summary
Delay says after Serwaa Amihere’s nemesis » GhBasecom™
Deloris Frimpong Manso aka Delay has said she will start interviewing politicians on her much-watched television show. Delay who has been interviewing largely entertainment players on her Delay Show said these words following Serwaa Amihere's recent inability to stand her grounds in an interview with Asiedu Nketiah. Many have chastised the GhOne TV presenter and concluded that entertainment-related journalists are unable to conduct impressive interviews with politicians who tend to play on their conscience and outsmart them by throwing questions back to them. Following that Delay, in a tweet, has promised her fans that she is going to start interviewing politicians. She added that because her show is largely conducted in Akan language, she will not use English in interviewing these politicians. Perhaps, Delay will want to prove that she can stand the politicians and their wittiness. I will start interviewing politicians ????. – delorisfrimpongmanso December 26, 2020. I am not a presenter on BBC. – delorisfrimpongmanso December 26, 2020. Source | Summary
Stop campaigning for political parties, do more peace songs
None
"I expected to see a lot of peace songs this year especially as we voted on Monday, December 7 but all I see is musicians running after politicians composing songs for political parties instead of giving us peace songs" he said. According to Paapa Wastik, musicians have a powerful tool which is their voice. "A lot of people listen to musicians when they talk and I expected musicians to compose very nice peaceful songs to Ghanaians and advise anyone who intends causing chaos as this election to desist from it". "They won't do that but rather jump on political platforms and support `political parties," he said. In this vain, Paapa Wastic is out with a peaceful song titled Yenbom and it talks about unity in Africa especially Ghana as one of the peaceful countries in the world. The song also talks about the fact that Ghana has to be our number one priority no matter our political differences. Paapa Wastik has been around for two decades and has shared stages with most of the international Reggae artists like Luciano, Sizzla Kalonji, Capleton, Damian Marley, Junior Reid, The Itals, The Abbysinians, Fantan Mojah and many others.
