Ghanaian musician Jay Lead drops a new EP
Dancehall musician Jah Lead has explained that the title of the EP reflected a realisation that he has more to offer as an artist.
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, he disclosed that in the early stages of his career, he often held back because he was overly concerned about others’ perceptions and opinions without embracing his full creativity.
"With this EP, I aim to rectify that sense of guilt for not sharing my authentic self, which is why I chose Guilt of Music 101 for the title. Crafted with the intention to uplift and energise, this five-track EP is deliberately designed to inspire movement and joy. This is a dance EP," Jah Lead states with enthusiasm.
"It predominantly features dancehall vibes, meant to evoke happiness and encourage listeners to enjoy the music fully. It’s based on real-life events. Life imparts invaluable lessons, and I felt it was important to document those moments through my music."

Mavis Asante talks about doing free collaborations
In a heartfelt interview on Joy Prime, respected Ghanaian gospel singer Mavis Asante has opened up about her approach to ministering at events organised by fellow musicians, stating that she does not charge a fee for her performances.
Mavis explained that her dedication to collaboration and community within the gospel music industry means she usually forgoes payment when invited to perform at events hosted by colleagues.
"The musicians I collaborate with understand the nature of the work and ensure they have quality instrumentalists ready," she explained.
During the interview, when asked if her colleagues ever offer her a token of appreciation after performances, Mavis graciously noted that she usually declines any monetary gifts unless the money is sent in advance.
"Some may call me afterwards to ask if they can send something, but I politely refuse. If they mention it beforehand and say, ‘I’ve sent you something,’ then that’s different," she clarified.
