The moment Ghanaians have been waiting for is here as Richie Mensah, CEO of Lynx Entertainment, has finally added his voice to the ongoing brouhaha from the camp of Kuami Eugene and Guru NKZ.
On the real, Richie who would usually keep mute on such developments opened up explaining the real cause of events.
In a post sighted by GHBase.com, Richie Mensah made it emphatic that Guru doesn’t need the signature of Kuami Eugene to make a hit song, therefore, no need for the back and forth.
Below is the unedited post put forth by Richie Mensah who’s managing Kuami Eugene.
“I normally stay quiet in most situations but this time I only feel it’s right I say something. Guru asked Lynx for a feature with either KiDi or Kuami Eugene, but the request was denied.
He then went from one media house to another insulting myself and other members of Lynx management, even to the extent of accusing us of sabotaging his career for the past 1O years. He spun stories which implied we have some extreme power in the industry to vitiate someone’s career.
As usual, my team and I stuck to our usual demeanour and stayed mute. When Kuami Eugene was asked in an interview if he would feature Guru, he simply said he couldn’t because Guru had insulted me consistently, and it wouldn’t be right to do a feature with someone who was disrespecting his boss.
Let’s call a spade a spade. There was nothing disrespectful in what Eugene said. I’m a responsible leader, and I would have chastised my artist if he spoke out of turn. So my question is, those attacking Eugene for allegedly disrespecting his elder Guru, where were they when Guru was attacking myself and my reputation in a disrespectful manner?
We talk about unity in the industry and then we go around bringing each other down. I personally have no problem with Guru. Never have and never will. I like to conserve my energy towards constant success and development than to waste my time on petty squabbling.
Guru is a natural hitmaker and doesn’t need KiDi nor Kuami Eugene on his song to make a hit. So there really should be no offence taken in any of this. So can we just drop all this wahala and everyone go back to making hits for Ghana”
