Both lawsuits demand financial compensation from Apple, with exact amounts to be decided during trials. Judges might require Apple to pay all...
According to his stylist, Trendy Rail, Sarkodie never wears the same Air Force sneakers twice. She revealed this detail during an April 12 appearance on Channel One TV's The Chat program.

Ghanaian singer KiDi says he has toughened up against flashy media headlines. During a TV interview with Ekow Koomson, he shared how he handles press coverage differently after nearly ten years in music.
KiDi admitted he once felt bothered when news outlets exaggerated stories about him or took his words out of context just to create buzz.
