Noise Over Artistes Billed For ‘Ghana Meets Naija’ 2012

Ghana Meets Naija 2012

Bola Ray and his Empire Entertainment team have created a very big brand out of nothing that is progressively and simultaneously bringing Ghana and Nigeria together to showcase Africa music to the world.
With just a year old and going into its second year, the ‘Ghana Meets Naija’ musical show has been fully embraced and endorsed by both governments of the two countries.
Ghana and Nigeria already have a cordial relationship through football matches, diplomatic and bilateral arrangements, cultural exchanges and in other areas. Beyond these, both governments believe that, music is another way of bringing them more closer together.

Following the endorsement by the two governments, GhanaCelebrities.Com has learnt that, Empire’s office has received numerous calls on daily basis from producers and label owners in other parts of Africa, so as their artistes will get the opportunity to feature on the show, a platform they see spectacular for their artistes.
Despite the pressure mounting, it is the hope that, Bola will still remain focus and won’t defeat from the core aim of the ‘Ghana Meets Naija’ brand, which is to assemble the very best of Ghana and Nigeria musicians on one platform.
The brand itself is a unifier with a sole aim of championing peace and co-existence between the two countries who have become role models to the rest on the continent.
After it’s launched, the general public received the news with mixed feelings concerning artistes billed to perform at the show slated for Saturday June 30 at the Dome of the Conference Centre. The organisers are fired up for the event and the buzz is in town.
The criteria for selection of artistes have also become a major concern for many and have since been discussed on various platforms with varied views. Some have asked why certain artistes didn’t make the cut to be on the show.
The maiden edition took place last year and it was seen as the biggest in-door event in Ghana by industry pundits. The show paraded D-Cryme, Ruff N Smooth, Efya, 4X4, Stay J, VIP, Kwaw Kese and Sarkodie, whiles the Naija brothers paraded J-Martins, 9ice, 2Face Idibia, and Naeto C.

In the series of the Stars of the Future since its inception some years back, one contestant has always stand out as the ‘Show Stopper’ in each year of the competition. This year’s show stopper which the judges concurred was a man with a girlish mannerism; Emmanuel Yawson.

If I was a gambler and had gone ahead to use my lifetime savings to place a bet on him to win the ultimate, I would have become a millionaire now. After witnessing the launch of SOF 5 at the GhOne Studios several months back, I knew and it was very glaring that Emmanuel Yawson was the favourite to win this year’s competition. Aside his ‘gay’ mannerism, he had something that most of the contestants didn’t have.

He is such a great singer. He has the right attitude, good gestures and good stage presence. He is an entertainer as well as a performer. During the launch, the contestants performed R. Kelly’s ‘World Greatest’, Emmanuel on his turn made the needed impression that one needed to commence such a competition.
