He is suitable for every platform in the world so whatever platform you put him on, he will deliver \u2026 that weighed into the decision making. He\u2019s got talent, he\u2019s got skill and then above all he\u2019s got music intellect and integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He acknowledged the dancehall artiste\u2019s contribution to Ghanaian music and noted that he admires his business acumen. \u201cHe understands music\u201d and they are more than happy to align themselves with him as a business.<\/p>\n<p>Born Livingstone Etse Satekla, Stonebwoy expressed gratitude to Zylofon Media for signing and said the industry needs more of such support for Ghanaians artistes.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that, he has been an independent artiste who started doing music commercially at age 19 and \u201cI stand to get corrected if this happens quite often as compared to other countries, most especially in Nigeria with whom we are in very high competition when it comes to entertainment, music and arts from Africa on the global market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stonebwoy stressed that \u201cit is very difficult to even have that form of support that can drive the arts, sustain the arts, create more job opportunities, respect the arts [and] make the arts stand up to a certain level where generations can be able to point at and say this is from Africa or this is from Ghana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Such collaborations, he noted, must be acknowledged and supported.<\/p>\n<p>Zylofon Media will handle management, productions and promotions for Stonebwoy.<\/p>\n<p>See photos of the ceremony below:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/7994914132429_4482488358651.jpg\" style=\"height:750px; width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1190644143873_4621657715644.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/4379351071651_8863618431923.jpg\" style=\"height:547px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/2159970604141_2632006653894.jpg\" style=\"height:523px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/3485276147567_5491827953348.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/6814758938892_6964253359939.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/6006679046019_1152999557968.jpg\" style=\"height:640px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/7080723940808_5419506681875.jpg\" style=\"height:640px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/2182559029095_3597306986442.jpg\" style=\"height:499px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/7075264795114_1717253995490.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/2142684271093_3764059604766.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/935232248519_3407000886172.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1923780617200_7831273694315.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/3501163663032_6155500409658.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/4074636599876_4570102324967.jpg\" style=\"height:640px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/662185537163_5040236447161.jpg\" style=\"height:640px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/6318700884417_2334691830393.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/4637092521465_9896862708394.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/9485148907328_5458884104413.jpg\" style=\"height:427px; width:640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fast growing entertainment and media group, Zylofon Media has signed dancehall artiste Stonebwoy to its record label.
