Liberian Music Industry: Think of it as a business

For the passed two years,  new talents have surfaced daily, in the Liberian Music industry, but very few business minded individuals to invest in and manage these talents.  The music quality and videos quality are also improving.  Now, the industry needs Cooperate minded individuals to take it to the next level.  To do that, we need the entertainers to understand that their talents alone can't take them from a habit level to a business level. They have to present themselves as professionals, giving business owners a professional reason to take risk and invest into their talents. A lot of our musicians lack professionalism and are very ego driven. Refusing to allow and work with entrepreneurs who are willing to present them effective marketing strategies that will take them into the Cooperate world.  This industry needs communities and national support.  It is a known fact, our society do not believe that arts and culture can vitally contribute to the...

Watch DJ Beans Gutt hot new single, featuring KillaLu and Shadow. 

DJBeans Gutt: More than a DJ

Shadow, Killa Lu, DJBeans Gutt When the radio personality, now turned rapper, DJBeans Gutt, first contacted me to watch his upcoming video and give him my honest opinion, it was just another whatever moment for me.  I couldn't get the video to play at first, for technical reasons.  After few tries, I just didn't bother.  An hour later, rebooted my computer and got things on track.  I clicked the play button and a grand smile immediately appeared on my face.  The first thing that caught my attention was the visual clarity.  Then, came the verses, nothing but talents, natural flows and great punch lines.  Truth be told, I am impressed. I wasn't this enthusiastic about it when he first send me the video, but after watching, I am definitely impressed.  It is very entertaining.

Why Moral Character Matters

Berenice Mulubah I am going to cut to the chase, no need for beating around the bush.  The Liberian society took a huge fall morally, during the civil war.  We haven't bounced back yet, therefore, moral has taken the back seat in our society.  Success is great, achieving it is challenging and entertaining, but to maintain it, you need a strong moral core.  Listed below are some benefits to having a strong moral core.   The Case for Strong Moral Character Achieve peace of mind. People with character sleep well at night. They take great pride in knowing that their intentions and actions are honorable. People with character also stay true to their beliefs, do right by others, and always take the high ground.  Strengthen trust. People with character enjoy meaningful relationships based on openness, honesty, and mutual respect. When you have good moral character, people know that your behavior is reliable, your heart is in the right pla...

The Importance of Saying 'No'

Berenice Mulubah, Liberian Poet and Entertainment blogger NO is a word that is sometimes difficult to utter and harder to hear.  Saying YES seems to be more fun, saying yes to parties, dating, working out, work itself, shopping, brunch, online research, social media ... the list is endless. Then there are times when you have to say NO to a loved one (like friends and family), or a client. As a blogger, I find myself in both situations, having to say no to a friend or client.  Blogging has been around since the late 90's, and it is growing into a billion dollar industry, yet, there are many who are unaware of what this industry is all about.  Questions are expected, but it do get frustrating and annoying at times, especially when you have to explain it over and over, to the same individual.  Being a Liberian Entertainment blogger, a lot of Liberian entertainers who are not knowledgeable on the job description of a blogger, mistake me for a promoter and come to...

Transforming from Bucky Raw to Manolo.

Manolo formerly known as Bucky Raw I remember having a short conversation with this young man on the phone, few months back. We talked about him understanding his target audience and building an image that will give him a larger fan base. We also talked about him rapping in his dialect. About a month ago, he dropped a Mano freestyle that went viral. Shortly after, he changed his name from Bucky Raw to Manolo. Slowly, he is transitioning from a thug hip hop rapper to a Hipco/traditional rapper and the boy has fire. I am glad to see this transformation. These amazing, determine, young talents are up to something. They are going to build something out of nothing and they are going to do it without the help of foreigners. Why? Because they have what it takes to succeed, all they need is a little bit of discipline and it is on its way.

Musa Bility protests Domenico Scala's Fifa election role

LFA boss Musa Bility The man overseeing Fifa's presidential polls should step aside due to conflict of interest, says the Liberian FA. Domenico Scala, who heads up Fifa's Ad-Hoc Electoral Committee, is Swiss-Italian - as is Gianni Infantino, one of the five presidential candidates. Scala excused himself from the 2015 elections as he shared nationality with a candidate, Swiss Sepp Blatter. LFA boss Musa Bility says he will go to the Court of Arbitration for Sport if Scala does not withdraw by Thursday. The battle to replace long-standing president Blatter takes place in 18 days' time. "Article 7.4 of the Electoral Regulations is clear that any member of the Ad-Hoc Electoral Committee who has a conflict of interest … is thereby barred from sitting as a member of the Committee and must be replaced," Bility wrote in a letter to Scala on Monday. The five Fifa presidential contenders: Prince Ali of Jordan Frenchman Jerome Champagne Swiss/Italian ...

Ambassador Jeremiah Sulunteh (LINA) - Liberia’s Ambassador to the United States, Mexico and Canada, Jeremiah Sulunteh, has presented L$200,000 to the administration of the Bong County Technical College (BCTC) to help upgrade the institution. He has also provided US$500 to the C.B Dunbar Maternal Hospital in Gbarnga and two drums of gasoline to Radio Gbarnga and Super Bongese Radio.

Tubman- Gray High School when other community colleges have moved to their own facilities. The Liberian diplomat attributed this to the politicization of activities of the college coupled with poor financial management in the county. Sulunteh believ...

About 50 locals have shown up to watch the show. When the surfer finally finds a wave he likes and rides it along the coastline, the crowd cheers and throws sand in the air. Benjamin McCrumade was the winner of the "senior" competition. "I'm go...
