Ghanaian music executive Richie Mensah has announced that Lynx Entertainment is exiting artiste management after nearly 20 years in the industry.
He says the company will now focus on music distribution and consumer electronics under its expanding business portfolio.
The announcement was made in a video shared on his social media pages on his 40th birthday, May 17, 2026.
Richie Mensah said the decision forms part of a long-term personal goal to step back from active music production at age 40.
“I promised myself that when I turned 40, I was going to retire from music,” he said.
He added that Lynx Entertainment no longer manages artistes, although he did not rule out future changes.
According to him, the company has now transformed its record label operations into a music distribution model.
Lynx will also focus heavily on its growing electronics business, known as Lynx Electronics.
He said his goal is to improve how people experience music, not just how it is created.
“For 20 years I have been creating sound and music for people to enjoy, and now I am focusing on how they listen to it,” he said.
Lynx has already introduced products such as Lynx Reverb headphones.
It is also preparing to launch new speaker systems, including the Lynx Octave range.
Over the years, Lynx expanded beyond music into film and creative production.
The group produced projects such as Sugar and Pawn and built subsidiaries including Lynx Studio and Tigon Creative Studios.
Founded in 2006, Lynx Entertainment grew from a home studio into one of Ghana’s most influential music labels.
It helped launch several major artistes, including Kuami Eugene, KiDi, MzVee, and others.
The label also supported emerging talents such as Maya Blu, Kasar, DSL, St. Lennon, and BoiJake.
Richie Mensah has also expanded into writing and media. He authored Yes! It’s Your Fault and hosts the podcast Master Minds.
