Tour Update: Omah Lay was reportedly hospitalised in Los Angeles after injuring his leg during rehearsals; he and his team have not confirmed the incident. Jill Scott has cancelled her South African concerts, with refunds confirmed. Industry Moves: Tyla has launched the “That Girl” scholarship to support aspiring female musicians, while Sarkodie is urging wealthy Ghanaians to invest in local artists.
