Song lyrics
Sugar (2007)
You lied to me
Sugar
Ghana
I love you
I luv Becca! I believe she is a superstar in the making! She already has 3 music videos pouring out of her Sugar album and I believe there are more coming. U lied to me is an excellent song and I am yearning to hear more of her stuff. I heard she gave an excellent rendition of the Ghanaian national anthem one time and I'll be looking for evidence to that effect
Check out an audio interview she had with ShowGhana above and check out an ongoing forum discussion regarding her music.
Becca is set for a superstar movie career with this big break. She has a role in the upcoming movie about Camerounian football star, Samuel Eto'o. She plays a childhood friend. The movie follows Eto's career and stardom, from his time to Barcelona etc.
Some scenes were even shot at the recent African Nations Cup in Kumasi, where the Indomitable Lions were based. Becca will be travelling to Barcelona in Spain soon to shoot some more scenes for the movie. It is reported that she will earn over $90,000. Most movie stars in the Ghanaian movie industry or even Nollywood don't earn half as much.
The Eto'o movie would be released at the SOuth Africa 2010 World Cup.
Why do people think when they can sing then they can act...ahem Beyonce, or the vice versa...ahem Genevieve.
Hmm...interesting news about Becca acting, and movie being released at the world cup. Is Eto'o that important?
:-)

becca is my favorite singer, she can do every style, slow, up tempo, r&b, highlife or even pop. this is a gem for Ghana and I believe she can go very far and become famous like Angelique Kidjo if she gets the right opportunities. she should not be limited to the Ghanaian market
