Reggie Rockstone was supposed to host IShowSpeed at his restaurant
Hiplife legend Reggie Rockstone and his wife, Zilla Limann, have shared a hilarious behind-the-scenes account explaining why American streamer IShowSpeed was unable to attend their waakye event in East Legon during his Ghana tour.
This comes after the Deputy CEO of the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA), Abeiku Santana, revealed that their popular food joint was among those IShowSpeed was intended to visit.
In a video shared on social media, the couple said they had everything primed after they received word that IShowSpeed would be passing by their restaurant.
“So we were all set up, food was ready, music was playing, the atmosphere was ready, and we were waiting.
“Then we saw the video of the guy getting a massage from 10 beautiful ladies, and I said, “This guy ain’t coming back from there.” If it were me, I wouldn’t go anywhere else,” Reggie laughed.

He added that they were left confused after receiving an initial cancellation call from Speed’s team, only for his advance security to later arrive to prepare the venue, before they eventually got a final no-show update.
Rockstone, however, said he understood the situation, explaining that Speed was likely exhausted.
“That boy was tired. He is human. When I saw all that he was doing out there, he would have probably collapsed. At least he knows about us, that’s all that matters,” they said.
Rockstone also took a playful jab at the endless Ghana-Nigeria jollof wars.
“We have to stop the fight. We have our waakye, and we have to move with that narrative,” he said.
