Pluzz FM’s Mr. Shark Refutes Payola Allegations

We wish to bring to the attention of the discerning reading public the unfortunate lies and misinformation by one ‘Chopper’, who operates in the name of Ghanaian-UK based musician Atumpan, and his resolve to malign the brand of one of Accra’s top DJs, Mr Shark. In an interview with Sammy Flex on Pluzz FM on Tuesday 29th November 2016, which was broadcast in Accra and across the globe via the internet with numerous discussions on social media, the said Chopper alleged among other falsities that Mr Shark collected an amount of GHC 100 (hundred Ghana cedis; equivalent to $ 23.12) as payola to play his song.  Chopper further questioned our integrity and raised serious ethical concerns with our professionalism by insisting that Mr Shark refused to play the song after the alleged payola was paid. We find these allegations as wild, unfounded; and clearly nothing but a pool of dishonesty calculated to create unnecessary controversy in a quest to damage our hard earned reputation. Settin...
