DJ Switch’s Image Spotted in Apple’s Promotional Video at the Launch of the New MacBook, But There are Questions

Erica Armah Bra-Bulu Tandoh known by the stage name DJ Switch’s image was spotted in a promotional video of the new Macbook launched by Apple on Tuesday Evening. The image which pops up 4min 32sec into the 49 minutes video shows DJ Switch standing before an Apple MacBook, looking happy and in a dancing mode but the original image shows Apple tampered with the image for its own benefit. So why would Apple do that?

The image was possibly taken during an event in Ghana where DJ Switch was invited to entertain the guest with her talent. The original picture reveals happy spectators at the back with drinks on their tables, possibly a wedding reception or party. In the original image below, the young DJ has stickers of herself on the back of the laptop which makes it difficult to identify the brand of the machine.

Original Image

But a look at the image in Apple’s promotional video indicates the laptop is an Apple Macbook. DJ Switch is a fan of the Apple MacBook as she could be seen with her MacBook in some of her pictures on Instagram. But the question remains, was that editing necessary? Couldn’t they have found other images of the young entertainer using a MacBook during one of her performances? Look at the edited picture used by Apple below and tell us what you think.

The Artistic Mind of a Criminal

I used to have a client who is a professor when it comes to art, paintings and antiques. He paints one portrait and makes millions out of it and that really fascinated me so much that I started doing some research into the Art, paintings and antiques industry. I discovered that the painting industry in Ghana is very small and young but elsewhere in the world, it is a huge industry which contributes significantly to the economy of these countries. The USA economy in 2014 and 2015 benefited US$730 billion and US$763.6 billion respectively from the Art, Paintings and Antiques sector(1). US$12 billion (£9.2 billion) was contributed to the UK GDP in 2016 from the Art and Painting sector(2) with Singapore’s Art and Painting contributing S$2.13 billion to the GDP in 2013(3).
