From Akosombo to Sekondi Takoradi, DJs have long been mixing music for the dance floor, blending the best of Ghana music with Afrobeats from Nigeria, South Africa hip-hop and the hottest sounds emerging from London and New York.
At Concerts, Nightclubs, Pubs and other event across Ghana, DJs are the essential ingredient for getting the crowd on its feet. One of such DJS who is happily changing the narrative using Technology is Nai Amonsah Otoo Mensah
Born 6 April 1995). He began his career in March 2017 and has headlined major Ghanaian concerts. IPhone DJ became prominent after being the first ever DJ to play a full set on a mobile device at the 2019 BOILER ROOM held in Ghana.
“My style is very different from every DJ here in Ghana and even in Africa if I should say, I play all my gigs on Phone using the djay2 by algoriddim software which is quite unusual of a mainstream Disc Jockey” he said
IPhone DJ’s career kicked off from his sound cloud page in the year 2017, he started sharing short mix tapes, which he made with a DJ app (djay2 by algoriddim) via sound cloud with his friends. These mix tapes, which he called cruise control, gained a lot of attention. Streams per mix tape were over 20,000 on sound cloud and this sparked some positive attention to his style of playing music.
During that same year, he played his first club event at Paparazzi Night Club. After which he started scoring major tertiary concerts and club events all over the country.
With his unique style of play and his growing popularity, IPhone DJ had become a more special talent amongst the major industry names. In about a year after coming out as a Dj, he bagged his first award at the 2018 GHANA DJ AWARDS for best Campus DJ of the year. He then became of the official DJ at Bloombar that same year, which went on to be one of the most recognized nightlife establishment in Ghana. In that same year, IPhone DJ bagged his first endorsement deal with Orijin (a beer manufacturing company) and was featured in all the major festivals (tidal rave, Detty Rave 2, little Havana and a dozen others).
He has performed with several top stars like Idris Elba, Mr. Eazi, Davido, Wizkid, Sarkodie, Efya, R2bees and many others on several platforms and shows.
IPhone DJ also one o the few brand ambassadors of algoriddim Djay software in Africa and first in Ghana to gain such recognition from the world brand.
IPhone DJ is currently the in house DJ for Legacy Life Entertainment and also doubles as the personal DJ for Afrobeats sensation King Promise.
The University of Ghana Business School undergraduate has several awards nominations including overall Best DJ at the famous 3 Music Awards, Ghana DJ Awards, Night Life Awards, Ghana Tertiary Awards and Ghana Entertainers awards USA.
In all IPhone DJ has been nominated 11 times and winning two awards in a span of his 3-year career both locally and international.

Quamina MP first stepped into Accra with nothing but a dream and an invitation from his friend, Mantse who worked in a studio.
He admits he had nothing and found life tough because he was all alone in a city he wasn’t even familiar with. Quamina MP found himself living in studios just to learn and do what he was passionate about music.
He had a dream and nothing was going to stop him. Not even school (Ghana Telecom University) where he studied a diploma in IT and had to drop out after 2 years. He was determined with the hope that one day he will make it.
“I say anything you want to do, all you have to do is work hard, put your mind to it and it will happen,” he told Kuulpeeps.com during an interview for Emergers 2020.
For Quamina MP, the struggles in pursuing his dreams have played a very important role in shaping him into who he is today. Not having access to studio times helped make him a great producer because he had to do it all alone.
“After high school, I didn’t have anybody. I didn’t know what to do with my life at a point because it was tough seeing everyone I know going to school but it was times like that that made me know that music was all I had and I had to push through.”
The passion helped direct his path and even sleeping in a studio because he had no place to go is one of the reasons why he works so hard now.
“I used to sleep and practically live in the studio back when I was struggling. I had nothing else to do but work all night when I had access to everything. I kind of got used to it so when I was able to leave the studio and get a place to call my own, the habit of staying up all night to work didn’t stop, so on most nights you will find me in the studio, recording, working on beats and just chilling with my boys,” he told Kuulpeeps.com
Quamina MP started out as a rapper. Growing up, he used to listen to Obrafuor and Kwaw Kese and was even told that he rapped like the Fante rapper. His uncle also played a big role in piquing his interest in music. His uncle, quite young was also a bit of a rapper and used to come home with his demo CDs. Hearing that made Quamina think he could do it too and he did!
From wanting to be the President when he was young to switching his dreams by getting interested in music through his Uncle, Quamina MP has slowly nurtured his style to become what he is today.
He’s moved from the young guy who was freestyling on stage at St Mary’s Boys Senior High School…the young boy who came all the way to Accra with nothing but his passion to become a fan favourite with three hit songs to his name.
Quamina MP has come a long way in his career and has even bigger dreams to make his mark in the music scene. He refuses to let anything put him down and he lives with the mindset that if something is supposed to come your way, it will…at the right time.
“Everything happens for a reason. If you are going through rough times don’t mean it should be the end of the world for you. Just put yourself together and accept that you are supposed to go through that to make you stronger. in this life, anything you want to do, all you have to do is work hard, put your mind to it and it will happen.“
