Sister Afia
More artistes have joined the list of performers for Saturday’s ‘Ghana Meets Naija’ concert at the Fantasy Dome, Trade Fair, La.
Kurl Songx, Sister Afia, Obibini, D Black’s BAM Family, Nana Yaa and others lead the pack of supporting artistes for the eighth edition of the event.
The announcement comes days after Empire Ghana, the organisers, added Nigeria’s Dice Ailes of ‘Otedola’ fame to the line-up.
This year’s ‘Ghana Meets Naija’ line-up is as exciting as the event’s eight year run. From when it was announced at a press conference on May 8, it has stoked conversation, bringing to the fore the clout of the West African artistes assembled for next Saturday’s event.
Wizkid makes a grand return to the prestigious stage, after his momentous 2013 appearance.
‘Mama’ hitmaker, Mayorkun, and Mr Eazi constitute the continent representing the green-white- green. Ghanaian artistes include Stonebwoy, who is famed for his outstanding live performances, Kidi, Kuami Eugene, King Promise, Patapaa, Fancy Gadam and Uptown Energy front man, Yaa Pono.
Regularly looked forward to, it has constantly served as the ultimate platform for the West African countries to execute their longstanding sibling rivalry in the area of music. Ghana and Nigeria have a lot in common musically, and constantly collaborate on projects.
The concert has, since its institution, provided opportunity for both countries to celebrate the diverse sounds in unity at the same time.
