We will release Ebony’s new album in her absence - Bullet

The manager of late dancehall artiste Ebony Reigns has announced his readiness to keep the memory of the musician alive by releasing the many songs she did before her death.

In an emotionally packed tribute, Bullet of the Ruff n Smooth fame said his record label Ruff Town Records will release Ebony's next album in the coming days.

"It is to ensure that Ebony Reigns will live forever," the music entrepreneur said, unable to restrain her tears from flowing.

St Martin de Porres School at Dansoman has not been able to contain the teeming crowd that has massed up to mark the one-week passing of the artiste.

Ebony died in a car crash on the Kumasi-Sunyani highway while journeying to Accra after visiting her mother who had visited from the UK.

She died with two others - Franky Kuri and Lance Corporal Vondee Atsu - who were with her in the vehicle.

Her death led to a huge outpouring of grief and sympathies from music lovers, fans, colleagues, friends and politicians here in Ghana.

The ceremony expected to be a rehearsal for her funeral, scheduled for March 17, took on a character of its own with celebrities and fans struggling for a place to stand.

Having discovered Ebony at the age of 18 in 2015, Bullet said he will keep the flame of the late artiste lit for the world to know what she stood for.

An Endowment Fund and a Foundation would be set up in her name, the late artiste's manager said, adding death cannot rob the musician of her glory.

"Whatever Ebony Reigns wanted to do for the family, we will get it done," Bullet said.
