LINDAIKEJI,TOOXCLUSIVE,BELLANAIJA,NOTJUSTOK......GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT !!!


I recently came upon an article on various blogs: LINDAIKEJI, TOOXCLUSIVE, NOTJUSTOK, BELLANAIJA and others  with the hotly debatable TOPIC:

Forbes/Channel O list of Top 10 Most Bankable African Artists 2013.

On this so called list were names of Africa's respected Music Icons:

1. Akon – CEO of Konvict Music, opened doors with other African artiste.
2. Don Jazzy – Producer. CEO Mavin Records, influential producer, MTN, Samsung and Loya Milk endorsement. D’Banj, Kanye West, Beyonce and Jay Z on production credit.
3. P-Square – Music Duo. Featured on Forbes Africa twice, sold out concert, presidential guest in at least 5 African countries.
4. D’Banj – Music Artiste. International music brand, G.O.O.D Music deal, Sony Entertainment deal.
5. Wizkid – Music Artiste. EME artiste, Starboy CEO, affiliation with Disturbing London, several international collaboration, highest paid Pepsi ambassador in Africa, ambassador of MTN.
6. 2face Idibia – Music Artiste. 10 million disc and at least 7 million digital sale, multiple ambassador, one campaign… associated with Guinness, Haven Homes, Airtel Worldwide and philanthropist – 2face foundation.
7. Anselmo Ralph – Music Artiste. Samsung and Coca Cola ambassador, Angola prince, Perfume line, clothing label, multimillion dollar tour bus, Sony artiste.
8. Sarkodie – Rapper. Presidential youth ambassador Ghana, Sark clothing, Samsung ambassador, fan milk Ghana.
9. Ice Prince – Music Artiste. Six million downloads, 2 studio owner, one foundation member, Plug N Play ambassador, Zamani foundation.
10. Banky W – Music Artiste. Co owner EME, Samsung Ambassador, Philanthropist, winner of multiple awards.

Now I've got to admit that I've no encumbrance with this list, but the SOURCE of this information.

This information has been allegedly sourced with the vast resources of Forbes & Channel O, on my investigative search for an ounce of truth, visiting the websites of Forbes(www.forbes.com) & Channel O , I couldn't find anything related to these TOPIC on both websites.





Now, Is that COINCIDENCE?

How can you prove to me that ForbesAfrica.com is GENUINE with these images below:

So i wonder where the self acclaimed ForbesAfrica.com  has come up with such a debatable list

Mfonobong Nsehe, the well-known Forbes contributor even denied having been the source of these information.
See the tweet below:





Several Music personalities like Davido and Freeze  do not agree with this list.









See Davido's  and Freeze's view below:




 
 
 To CONCLUDE this, bloggers/journalist should verify their numerous sources of information. 

To take a CUE from my brother REMINISCE : ALL BLOGGERS BLOG WITH CAUTION
