It was reported that the Bent Dance Crew, Official Dancers For Stoneboy On thier way Home after the Ashaiman To The World Concert encountered a fatal Accident around Airport.
According to reports, the victims are currently receiving treatments at the hospital as they were seriously injured in the sad incident.
Over 40,000 music lovers stormed the much anticipated Ashaiman To Da World concert which came off live at the Ashaiman Saka Saka Park.
Stonebwoy repeatedly made history with the 2018 edition of his concert to show appreciation to the people of the Ashaiman municipality.
The show started with a list of underground artistes gracing the stage; lasting for more than 3 hours, after which the main acts for the night started mounting the stage to dish out their peace messages and songs.
Renowned artistes who supported Stonebwoy at the Ashaiman To Da World concert included Kumawood actor, Nkansah Lilwin, Clemento Suarez, Lawyer Ntim of Kejetia VS Mokola fame, Samini, Sarkodie, Yaa Pono, Kwaw Kese ,Kelyvn Boy, Kwesi Arthur, Article Wan, Kofi Kinnata, Darko.
Ghana’s King of Rap, Michael Owusu, known in real life as Sarkodie took to the stage to do his own thing. He used the opportunity to perform hit tracks like, Illuminati, RNS, Revenge of the Spartans and others. Patrons couldn’t help but join in the energy that he put into his performance.
Samini also did what he is best known for – “mash up the show” in a grand style. The High Grade boss made an impact with his classic performance.
If you’ve been observing the Ghanaian music scene lately, you’ll attest to the fact that this year’s own was a crucial assignment regarding the fact that Shatta Wale’s ‘Reign’ album launch had toppled records at the Fantasy Dome and according to the masses, Stonebwoy had to prove his worth now or never! It doesn’t even make sense but hey, this is Ghana.
The whole debate about free or paid shows can be discussed later, but for now, let’s all bask in the glory of how phenomenal Ashaiman To The World 2018 (#ATTWC18) concert was and savour the great moments it tagged along with.
Truth be told, no one can accurately put a figure as to how many people showed up at the Sakasaka Park in Ashaiman but the fact is, the number gets bigger as the years go by.
Another enviable record was set this year and it seems the whole of Ashaiman and the lovers of Stonebwoy really wanted to prove a point. Counting from the number of people on the main park through to the crowd behind the stage, not forgetting those who stood on the sidelines of the motorway to watch as well as those who made the Ashaiman Overhead Bridge their popular stand, you won’t be wrong to put the figure at over a 100,000. So to play it safe, let’s just enumerate it by saying hundreds of thousands showed up!
Epixode really made an impression with his live band performance and that I must say was really refreshing. Clemeto Suarez and Lawyer Nti also didn’t dull at all. The duo warmed their way into the hearts of the fans with their comical music. Donzy did great on the night and D-Black and his crew also did their thing. Kofi Kinaata and his “Mb3l3de” was on an all-time high and really entertaining.
Kwadwo Nkansah (Lilwin) knows how to make a mark with his musical side and he did justice to that. In wrapping up his performance, dude threw wads of 1 Ghana Cedi notes to the masses and ran off the stage leaving the crowd scattered and tumbling over just to lay hands on the money. Very smart move you’ll say but imagine been shoved and dealt with punches, all cuz of 1 Ghana Cedi! Oh Ghana!
One performance I really looked up to but was left disappointed was that of Okomfo Kwadee. One couldn’t help but realise that all was definitely not well with the ‘Yeko Mmaa Pe’ hitmaker. A few minutes after his arrival, he started throwing tantrums about been disrespected and delayed for so long and I couldn’t help but ask if he wasn’t the one who just arrived at the venue.
He was then called to perform and while leading his entourage to mount the stage, dude just went past the stage and had to be redirected before he climbed up to do his thing. His demeanour was really disturbing. Kwadee would pause his performance and go on and on chanting some inaudible patois and I just don’t know how to describe what that was. Sincerely, his handlers are not doing him any good with that kind of attitude. Kwadee really needs a break to set things right.
If you ever doubted Kwaw Kese’s status as the “King of Streets” in recent times, then you should reconsider. The streets still recognise him as their own and reciprocated the love he showed them. Guru did great on the night and Edem also treated the fans to great music. Sarkodie is a ‘rap god’ and that’s not even debatable. ‘Obidi’ didn’t disappoint!
I know you’re itching to know how Stonebwoy’s performance went but the thing is, you don’t need to be told. My legs had given up on me and I was really knackered but that didn’t stop me from abandoning my seat and pushing my way through the dense crowd for the very last time just to watch his performance.
In spite of the hitches with sound, Stonebwoy nailed it! The highlight of it all was the “father and son” moment when Samini joined him on stage and my oh my… It was a multiple orgasmic moment! Whoa!!! Witnessing Samini and Stonebwoy together on stage is always refreshing and that #SameMotorway freestyle they both did was an epic lituation. It was such a beautiful and overwhelming moment in time.
