Who is a hustler? By the definition of the
urban dictionary, a hustler is someone who knows how to make money
usually by doing illegal things like selling drugs. In my own
definition, a hustler is a survivor, someone who knows how to make money
doing what they love, or even crave more from their usual hustle. Let’s
just simplify it as someone who knows how to get what they want.
There has been a couple of celebrities who
have eventually become survivors in the industry and this year alone
they have craved enough to make it on our list as the hustlers of the
year for 2014. Let’s walk
SHATTA WALE
Shatta Wale inspires me a lot, last year he went to the the Ghana
Music Awards show and he wasn’t even recognized by the red carpet host, a
year later he is rumored to have dated the same person who didn’t recognize him,
and then he won artiste of the year. Shatta Wale is the most sort-after
artiste right now. He plays shows all over the world, Canada, UK and
more. All hail Shatta Wale for really working hard and making himself
proud.
OKYEAME KWAME
After 20 years of being a musician, Okyemae
Kwame is still very active and his career has gone from good to better.
He has mastered the business side of it. Currently he is an ambassador
for Coca Cola, MTN and GT Bank. He has his own label, advertising
company and keeps getting deals from cooperate bodies. Okyeame Kwame
makes it on our list as a hustler of the year
DELAY
Delay is a very hardworking woman and we admire her for that. Besides
her TV show, she’s a radio presenter, TV show producer, actress and a
business woman. She has her own boutique and also imports her own
mackerel which we hear is doing good on the market. Delay is one of our
female hustlers of the year 2014.
SAMINI
Samini has been doing music for 10 years and
he’s still very active and making the cash. Even when Shatta Wale came
through and claimed the dancehall king title, Samini gave him a run for
his money. Samini had a great 2013 and 2014 first quarter has been good
to him. Besides the music, Samini is building a restaurant and a club in
Dansoman. The hustle goes on.
CONFIDENCE HAUGEN
She is another hardworking woman. She has owned Afrodisiac Night club
for time. She’s got her own restaurant and seems to be making bigger
moves.
YVONNE NELSON
Yvonne Nelson is the most-hardworking
Ghanaian actress. There was a time the whole industry frowned on her.
She didn’t give up, today she has her own production company and has
worked on about 3 successful movies.
REGGIE ROCKSTONE
Starting from music, Reggie Rockstone has advanced, he invented
Hiplife. Reggie Rockstone is now a full fledged business man. He owns
his own night club which is doing well in Accra. Reggie Rockstone has
also been a judge on the Nigerian version of X-Factor.

Their name sound says it all. They also have deals with Star Beer and rLG.
SARKODIE
He has grown from a boy to a man, making crazy money per performance.
He has played shows all over the word. He has deals with Tigo, Samsung
