6. Rocky Dawuni

For a Ghanaian to headline a concert in a place like Indonesia, he must really be an artiste worth watching. Rocky headlined the Balispirit festival in Bali twice in a row. To start with the definition of being a music lover includes being a lover of every genre once the instrumentation, lyrical content, arrangement and vocal content is executed properly.

For the true rasta people! Ya man! I think we all agree that on the Ghanaian reggae scene, Rocky has really held his own over the years, selling the Ghana brand farther than you can imagine. The level of activism he participates in is very noteworthy because there’s nothing better than a musician with a cause and Rocky has quite a number of causes he backs.

In my opinion, one of the best ways to get your songs to be heard and get stuck in head of patrons is by allowing a gaming company to license your song. There are so many songs licensed by EA Sports I can sing very well without even making an effort. Any guy who loves playing FIFA on any consul should have heard Rocky’s ‘Download the Revolution’ on the 2010 edition of FIFA and African Reggae Fever featuring prominently during the 2010 World Cup and there were previous songs on the FIFA 2008 edition.

With five solid albums and a number of international awards as well as features with Bono of U2 and his inclusion on Stevie Wonder’s tribute, the sky could only be the limit.
