This is really sad news as Africa has lost yet another of its promising stars, Ghana born Hiplife musician, Castro De Destroyer, who drowned alongside his girlfriend, Janet Bandu, after a skiing accident.
Described as the 50 Cent of Ghanaian music, Castro, born Theophilus Tagoe, was a what the likes of MI, Ice Prince and Phyno are to Nigerian rap scene and started out his music career with his debut album in 2003 and just won the Highlife Song of the Year 2014 at the VGMAs award winner held earlier this year.
A very close friend of Black Stars captain, Asamoah Gyan, with whom he recorded three albums, according to reports in the West African country, on the 6th of July, 2014, Castro died while on a holiday at Ada, a suburb of the country where he had gone in the company Asamoah Gyan.
Castro drowned in an attempt to rescue his girlfriend who had fallen off a jet ski.
In an attempt to rescue her, Castro and the girl drowned together, their bodies have not been found yet.

May their souls rest in perfect peace.
