DStv and Multichoice Ghana are Celebrating 15 years of pioneering and innovative pay television business that has kept abreast with world trends and world-class service. MultiChoice pioneered the launch of digital satellite broadcasting in Africa in 1995 with the launch of DStv and has since rolled out a multitude of new world class services and channel choices which have ensured that Africa is abreast with the latest trends and services available in digital technology.
Not only was DStv the first to provide digital satellite television services to Africa, it has also been the first in a number of other digital technology services, such as the Dual View decoder, the Personal Video Recorder (PVR), High Definition television (HD), DStv ON DEMAND (a video on demand services available on PVRs), DStv Mobile, which allows for television viewing on your mobile phone, as well as other ground-breaking enhanced services.
The Acting General Manager of Multichoice Ghana, Cecil Sunkwa-Mills says: “We are very proud of our achievement in consistently delivering cutting-edge digital technology that takes pay-TV to new levels and stimulates growth and innovation in Africa. Our DStv service provides world-class digital technology that delivers great pictures and sound quality to televisions in homes across the continent. We remain committed to DStv’s mission to provide our subscribers with the very latest in digital technology, the most exciting local and international television channels and support this offering with world-class customer service.”
To mark this milestone, Multichoice Ghana has a few surprises for its subscribers, both active and inactive. There will be question and answer competitions to win 15 free one month Compact subscription, 15 free one month Family subscription or 15 free one month Access subscriptions.
Inactive subscribers will also be able to text send a text to request a free dish alignment and service maintenance. They will also be activated onto the Freeview bouquet which is a bouquet of 16 free channels for 3 months.
Loyal annual paying subscribers will definitely not be left out. MCG is giving a limited number of annual subscribers an offer of a 50% discount on the purchase of an HDPVR decoder within a 15 day period.
Multichoice as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility focuses on education (the Multichoice Resource Centre programme) by using digital satellite technology to support and enhance the learning and teaching experience across Africa. In Ghana there are 20 such schools and MCG would like to give another 25 schools the opportunity to receive DStv hardware and the educational bouquet for free. School principals will be able to enter the selection process by filling in an application form available from the Multichoice headoffice.
Keep an eye out for Multichoice staff as they carry out community services within Accra.
Multichoice Ghana and DStv wishes to thank its subscribers for their loyalty and support and for making the DStv service the pay television operator of choice. DStv assures its subscribers that the best is yet to come – there is still So Much More great television to look forward to. To its partners, thank you for fifteen years of fruitful partnerships.

Ice Spice remix stamps Cash Cobain’s “Fisherrr” as the Song of the Summer
Billboard Rookie of the Month, and multi-hyphenate NYC star, Cash Cobain has just linked up with Ice Spice for the long-awaited video remix for “Fisherrr”(feat. BaySwag) [18m+ Streams]. After bubbling the past few years with R-rated anthems over his own ethereal production – creating the playful “sexy drill” sound that he’s pioneered and taken to mainstream heights, Cash Cobain is stamping himself as a serious song of the summer contender with this remix.
Following up his two smash singles “Dunk Contest” (8m+) and “Fisherrr” (pronounced, ‘for sure), Cash is primed for his moment in the spotlight –– hitting 1M Monthly Listeners on Spotify, Top 3 NYC Shazam Charts, having occupied the #1 + #3 slots of the NYC Apple Music Charts, hitting #45 on the Urban Radio Charts and counting, and now landing Ice Spice’s third feature ever –– in the words of COMPLEX, “the summer of 2024 is looking very slizzy”. On the highly-anticipated remix, Ice Spice is simply in top-tier shape.
Adding her signature magnetic ‘it-girl’ flair, charming cadence, and instantly-coinable one-liners, she bolsters the lightning-hot single into astronomical territory with the opening lines –– “Got an attitude but I’m feelingless, so I ain’t mad at you, And I’m tatted too on this fatty-tude, I’m the baddest boo”.
The long-overdue collab from the two Bronx natives is seamless, with her being a tailor-fit alongside the ethereal, dreamy production and silky smooth verses from Bay Swag and Cash. With the recent releases of “Dunk Contest” (watch Genius ‘Open Mic’) and now the Ice Spice-assisted remix for “Fisherrr” (feat. BaySwag), Cash Cobain is using his collaborative momentum from last year to continue elevating his signature sound, showcasing its influential and ever-growing widespread appeal in the process. In the words of Cash:“It’s a beautiful record. It feels amazing, it feels like NYC is back stronger than ever with me and Spice -– two Bronx legends. Get ready for the song of the summer.”
Last month, Cash took over NYC with his birthday show, ‘Slizzyfest’ at Irving Plaza –– a night that was slated as a stacked lineup of NY’s finest, with rumors of an A-list superstar surprise set. After chatter spread online and the hype reached a fever pitch, the crowd became too much to handle and the show was ultimately canceled –– but Cash wanted to give the fans their money’s worth so he ventured into Union Square and threw a makeshift show with his crew, a Bluetooth speaker, and hundreds of adoring fans (read ‘I Went to Cash Cobain’s Slizzyfest and All I Got Was That Classic NYC Feeling’ via Rolling Stone + statement in Billboard).
Also in Billboard, Cash recently teased potential collaborations with Frank Ocean, Travis Scott, Don Toliver (seen filming a music video here), Lil Yachty and more –– a surefire sign of the worldwide stardom soon to come. These recent releases arrive on the heels of a career-defining year in 2023 that closed with the production of PinkPantheress‘ “Nice To Meet You” (feat. Central Cee), which debuted at #20 on Billboard Hot 100 (he also starred alongside her in a nationally-syndicated Apple commercial for the new MacBook).
This was preceded by producing Drake’s “Calling For You” (feat. 21 Savage), which debuted at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100, DJ’ing at Travis Scott‘s Cactus Jack x Audemars Piguet event, and releasing his critically-acclaimed debut solo album Pretty Girls Love Slizzy with Giant Music.
Please find links to stream the new “Fisherrr” Remix (feat. Ice Spice) below, and stay tuned for more announcements:
