GHANA MEETS NAIJA 2018 SCHEDULED FOR JUNE 9

The 8th edition of the annual Empire Entertainment organised event, Ghana Meets Naija, was successfully launched on Tuesday, May 8th in Accra at the First Atlantic Bank forecourt at Airport.

The musical event is slated on Saturday, June 9, at the Fantasy Dome of the Ghana International Trade Fair Centre.

Over the years, Ghana Meets Naija has been known as the platform for the biggest artistes in both Ghana and Nigeria to share one stage and thrill music lovers. It has always seen massive patronage because of the list of top African acts it parades.

Performing artistes from Ghana include dancehall act Stonebwoy, King Promise, Kuami Eugene, KiDi, Fancy Gadam, Patapaa and Yaa Pono who are known for their show stopping performances and representing Nigeria are Wizkid, Mayourkun and Mr Eazi were all made known at the press launch.

Addressing the gathering, PR for Empire Entertainment Laillah Crystal Banda, promised a memorable event and stated, “this year’s concert has set out a rescue mission to capture the music and battle for ownership, we are writing history of music and the future is right here in our hands, now we know that powerful music all over the world are faced with the unrelenting quest to claim of ownership of who owns the throne.”

In its 8th year, Ghana Meets Naija is the biggest concert in the region that brings artistes from the two countries together and Shatta Wale is the only Ghanaian artiste to long perform on the stage five times in a row but will be missed this year. Replacing him is CEO of Burnington Music, Stonebwoy, who will lead the Ghanaian acts to the battlefield in music.

After a night of captivating musical performances from a tall list of artistes at last year’s 7th edition of Ghana Meets Naija, Shatta Wale was voted King of the concert, where the self-acclaimed Dancehall King as usual, connected well with the crowd as he performed his popular hits including Dancehall King, Bie Gya, Chop Kiss, Reality, Ayoo, Hosanna, Taking Over with a surprise stage performance of Low Tempo with his baby Mama Shatta Michy.
