Two media personalities from Taadi, DJ Magnus Da Silva and DJ Magic George, are facing intense criticism on social media after a video surfaced online about them mocking Kofi Kinaata's loss at the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) 2025.

Kofi Kinaata was nominated for Music Video of the Year, but the award went to Stonebwoy for his song "Jejereje."

In the video, DJ Magnus, a host on Connect 97.1 FM, and DJ Magic George, a presenter at Empire FM, were seen laughing and making fun of Kofi Kinaata's loss. DJ Magic George even mimicked Kofi Kinaata's signature phrase "Ntsemtsem" from his song "Auntie Ama," sparking outrage among fans.

The video has sparked a heated debate on social media, with many calling out the media personalities for their disrespect towards Kofi Kinaata. Fans have expressed disappointment in the hosts' behavior, expecting more professionalism and respect for artists, regardless of the outcome of awards.

As media personalities, DJ Magnus and DJ Magic George are expected to maintain a level of professionalism and decorum, especially when discussing artists and their work.
