Legendary American rapper, Jim Jones, was adorably styled like a real Ghanaian royal for his appearance in the official music video of ‘Drip’ Remix, a song by award-winning Ghanaian musician Bashir Annan, famously known as Gambo.
His demeanor, the ‘subjects’ at his feet and standing around him, as well as his beautiful Kente wear accessorised with amazing beads and fine-looking crown, all perfectly combined to earn him a noble ‘royal status’.
In the video shot in the USA, Jim Jones is seen beautifully dressed like a Ghanaian king, alongside rappers Gambo, Ayigbe Edem, a number of white and black women who also dressed in beautiful Ghanaian costumes, promoting the culture of Ghana on the international scene.
The ‘Drip’ Remix is one of the amazing tunes on Gambo’s latest extended play (EP) titled ‘1 More Bullet’, a musical project that’s in celebration of hip-hop.
Featuring on the highly anticipated EP are Ghanaian music duo, E.L., and Kofi Jamar. E.L. features on a song titled ‘Enjoyment’. Kofi Jamar showcased his music prowess on ‘Conversation’, another amazing song on the EP to watch out for.
Jim Jones was not only excellent in contributing to ‘Drip’ Remix lyrically, but his dress style was a perfect fit for marketing brand Ghana in America and beyond.
Jim Jones was influenced to ‘wear Ghana’, ‘appreciate Ghanaian culture’ and to help immensely ‘market the Ghanaian culture’, something for which Gambo truly deserves a brand ambassadorial role from agencies like the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA).
Gambo is certainly helping immensely to connect Ghanaians in the diaspora to their roots and to equally inspire the younger generation of Ghanaian musicians to take great pride in their cultural heritage and promote same internationally.
Gambo strongly believes that through music, the rich traditions, stories, and values of Ghana could reach the hearts of people worldwide.
For Gambo, using the power of music to promote Ghanaian culture internationally, could profit Ghana’s tourism industry immensely.
Gambo continues to exemplify himself as a great ambassador for brand Ghana and he has vowed to continue to use his music journey to send home the message that Ghanaian culture is a treasure to be celebrated and shared with the rest of the world.
