However all the other musicians whose names were mentioned like Kwabena Kwabena, Tinny, King David, Bandana, Nana Quame, Quata, Joe of Mentor II fame were all present and confirmed to have been Signed on Madd Haus according to Aik a lot more mainstream and contemporary Ghanaian musicians have express their eagerness to be signed on.
