“Everything about my life is serious. Of course it’s serious.” This was the response of superstar rapper Ice Prince to a question about his relationship with Ghanaian-French beauty Maima.
The rap star confessed his deep love for the lady after his relationship with her turned a staple for everyone on the social media space
The Choc Boi Nation artiste, who is known for keeping his private life secret, made this known during a no-holds barred chat on the premiere episode of the new MTV Base show ‘Real Talk’.
The show, hosted by MTV Base VJ Ehiz and VJ Stephanie, is a one on one question and answer platform, which enables fans to connect with top celebrities by getting answers to questions they have asked on social media. No questions are off-limits – secrets, guilty pleasures, old memories, phobias, everything is on the table.
In the course of the premiere episode, Ice Prince answered questions on a range of subjects including his opinion about Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie, what age he stopped wetting the bed (15 or 16, he reveals shockingly!), if he has ever worn fake jewelry, and whether he has a thing for “Yvonne’s”.
Responding to a question about if he has ever had a fight with a fellow celebrity, Ice Prince replied: “I don’t get into fights, but maybe some altercations once in a while. Maybe somebody moved your verse on a song or someone didn’t release a song when they were supposed to, but we know how to find our way around it. There are so many years ahead for us to make music anyway.”
Colette Otusheso, Head of Marketing and Communications, Viacom Africa, while speaking about the new show, said Real Talk is designed to go below the surface and bring the real story of the superstars on the show to their fans.
“If you have ever wondered what your favourite celebrities get up to in their private lives, this is the show where you get that exclusive access to them and get them to answer questions of your own choosing,” Colette stated.
