former member of the defunct VIP music group, Promzy Afrika, is not happy about a photo purported to have been sent from one of his former group members to another.
In a Facebook post, Promzy expressed his disappointment at Prodigal for sending a photo grid that has Reggie Rockstone, a member of the new group (VVIP), to former VIP member, Bone.
“How can Prodigal send this [photo grid] to Bone with f*ckery Reggie in it? I feel like slapping somebody. Nobody can ever take my place for all this years. Happy new month family,” he wrote.
Responding to some messages on the post, Promzy disclosed how his former members tried to destroy the relationship between him and Shatta Wale.
Few years ago Promzy left the music group, making room for Hip life grandpa Reggie Rockstone who joined the two and changed the name from Vision in Progress (VIP) to Very Very Important Personalities (VVIP).
Promzy had said that he was actually kicked out of the group by Reggie even though the latter has on several occasions disputed this assertion.
VIP, one of the first music groups to have emerged during the early stages of hiplife initially had Bone and Friction who later left, leaving the number to three: Promzy, Prodigal and Lazy (now Zeal).
They produced some of the massive hits the country has even had. In 1998, they released their first album, ‘Bibi Baa O.’
In 2003, VIP took the music industry by storm with their album ‘Ahomka Womu.’ The ‘Ahomka Womu’ song was number one on the Ghanaian charts for over 20 weeks.
VIP won several awards at the Ghana Music Awards and the group gained international exposure after this success.
Following the exit of Promzy, Reggie Rockstone the godfather of Ghanaian rap who back in the mid 90’s christened the new genre Hiplife, joined the group.
The new VVIP has since produced smash singles like ‘Selfie,’ ‘Skolom’ and ‘Dogoyaro’ and ‘Koliko.’
