Undeniably, Ghana Meets Naija is the hottest musical concert on the Ghanaian event calendar. With three successful and power-packed previous editions, this year’s edition of Ghana Meets Naija is surely going to be exceptionally massive with oodles of fun.
In the world of football, Ghana has succeeded in beaten Nigeria in the FIFA World Ranking. What about the music industry? Nigeria has over the years been boasting of having great musical performers. The host nation, Ghana, on the other hand thinks otherwise. It’s therefore time for the two countries to come face to face once again for another round of a fair musical battle.
These two countries do not want to let go their supremacy and bragging rights. In view of this, top musicians from each of the two countries have been lined up for this year’s Ghana Meets Naija mega concert. The best have been selected from the rest to thrill their fans and make the night a memorable one in one’s lifetime. Will Ghana, the host nation, lose to Nigeria?
The question as to which country will stand tall ought to be answered. It can only be answered by analysing the performers representing each country. The headline acts for Ghana include Sarkodie, Guru, Lil Win, and Castro. (Don’t forget Shatta Wale will be hitting it hard too).
That of Nigeria comprises of Davido, Kcee, and Wizboy. Other supporting acts will be performing on the night. For now, they will remain as surprising acts—y0u need to be there to find out for yourself….
Let’s look at the headline acts from both countries to make a projection as to which country is likely to take home the champion belt.
Sarkodie
Sarkodie has grown to become one of Africa’s top musical performers. With 3 studio albums plus one collaborative album to his credit, Sarkodie has twice been adjudged as Artiste of the Year by organisers of Ghana Music Awards.
His brand keeps growing day after day. Music lovers love him for his versatility and how he delivers fluently on every song with his fast-paced rap style.
In 2012, Sarkodie won the Best International Act (Africa) at the BET Awards. Churning out hit songs each time, he has once again been recognised by BET, nominating him in the same category this year.
At tomorrow’s Ghana meets Naija, patrons will be expecting great and nerve- cracking performance from Sarkodie—and we are certain he will not disappoint.
Shatta Wale
Whoever tells you rebranding isn’t good doesn’t actually know what he/she is talking about. Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jnr., popularly known by his stage name-Shatta Wale is currently taking Dancehall music in Ghana to another level.
It seems he releases new songs at the end of each week—and these songs turn out to become hits. With lots of ghetto soldiers on his side, Shatta Wale doesn’t disappoint his followers when it comes to performance.
