FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Radio Diva, Master Queen has finally confirmed media reports that she has resigned from Hott FM 107.9, one of Liberia’s most popular radio stations, to seek other opportunities and explore potentials in her career.

The award winning radio personality has moved to Capitol FM 89.7, which is managed by the legendary broadcaster Chris Wolo.

She added that she is leaving the station with a heavy heart, but promised to maintain a cordial working relationship when called upon.

“After six solid years with Hott FM, I have decided to resign in order to explore opportunity elsewhere. The truth is, leaving Hott FM was one of the most difficult decisions I had to make in a while, considering this has been my home for the last 6 years, and everyone here has become family to me.

“I hope and pray that we will be able to work together to continue to push Liberian music, arts and culture to boundaries beyond our wildest imagination,” said Master Queen, who is currently in Nigeria.

Liberian/African King of Hip Hop Scientific Releases Double Singles in Conjunction with Jack Daniel's Birthday Celebration in Ghana













After a long break from the music scene Award winning Liberia/Africa's top hip hop artist Scientific teams up with WatsUp TV and Jack Daniel's during their birthday month celebration this gone weekend in Accra, Ghana for the release for his Double Singles Release titled "Ain't Got Time" and "Her Back Wicked". Scientific gives his fans a piece of his heritage - Liberia. He takes his fans into his life as a Liberian and his pride for his motherland.







The Wonda World crooner who has made his name known across Africa has decided to take a direction that would propel Liberia into the African music scene.
In the first song "Her Back Wicked", the multiple awards Winner sings and raps about a woman he falls for but later breaks his heart. Might sound like a cliché of a story, but the delivery and structure is awesome. In his indigenous Lib dialect and English, Scientific perfectly weaves his way around the song on a club style afro beat - totally mind blowing and beautiful.





Meanwhile, he switches to the usual rap and Hiphop he is known for on the second song "Ain't Got Time". From get go, it's evident he has no time for BS. Playing on metaphors, wordplay and double entendre, he clearly indicates that he has been slept on for too long and it ought to change. Scientific believes there's a lot of sabotaging going on in the industry that doesn't aid growth. He addressed it all. You can call this a public address of important issues.


Scientific official DJ in Ghana - DJ Slash from Rainbow Radio was in attendance to give the evening a fresh taste of Scientific. Fans came out in numbers along with bloggers, celebrities and media outlets.
