One personality in the Ghanaian music industry who has proved his efficiency not only as an<\/p>\n

artiste but also as a music producer and artistes manager is Richie Mensah.<\/p>\n

About 5 to 6 years ago, Richie Mensah was an artiste who produced back-to-back hit tracks.<\/p>\n

Years after thrilling fans with tracks such as This is Love, Frema, Changing Faces, among<\/p>\n

others, Richie retired and set up his own recording studio, Lynx Entertainment.<\/p>\n

As the CEO of Lynx Entertainment, Richie has successfully managed and produced some<\/p>\n

of the best artistes the industry could ever boast of.<\/p>\n

Richie Mensah who has been in the music business for over a decade has managed artistes<\/p>\n

like Asem, Eazzy, OJ Blaq, Ziggy, Feli Nuna among others.<\/p>\n

Richie Mensah’s Lynx Entertainment is arguably the biggest record label now, churning out award winning acts like nobody’s business.<\/p>\n

The success of the label has obviously attracted many and Richie now says there is a lot<\/p>\n

of pressure on him to sign other artistes.<\/p>\n

According to the talented producer and beat maker, there are a lot of artistes who keep knocking at his door to manage them.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to mention names but I get countless calls and messages from artistes who want me to manage them but my answer to them is no because I am okay with the artistes I have now,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Richie explained that adding more artistes to his record label means more work which he is not ready to deal with.<\/p>\n

\u201cManaging artistes is not easy as some people see it. It takes time and commitment and I am okay with Kuami Eugene, KiDi and MzVee under the Lynx Entertainment Label,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Richie in an interview with Graphic Showbiz said that what he does now is to connect the<\/p>\n

artistes to other people he thinks can do a good job for them.<\/p>\n

He explained that although some of the artistes who pressure him to sign them on<\/p>\n

are disappointed and not cool with him, there is nothing he can do about it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI won\u2019t pretend I can do the work because of the profit I will gain, my hands are tied now with the artistes I have on my label,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
