international celebrity news. For Ghanaian music lovers this is going to be an

by Ghana’s own Channel O VJ J-Town, with his equally vibrant counterparts and
VJs Flavia from Uganda and Nigeria’s Denrele. The day is set to keep crowds
dancing the azonto with none other
than superstar DJ and Channel O’s Bassment

“We are excited because Ghana
is playing a very significant part where African urban culture is concerned.
One of the biggest dance trends in the continent, the azonto, is from Ghana, some of the hottest artistes are Ghanaians
and we also have some of the best actors from this country,” says Channel O
Africa Manager Leslie Kasumba. “Recording O
News Live in Ghana is for us, an investment in a market that we believe is
key in advancing the African music scene and unearthing new talent. We are
really thrilled to be doing a showcase of GH culture.”
