Six
of Africa’s finest artistes have collaborated on a song that is part of
MultiChoice Africa’s forthcoming campaign which is set to be unveiled at a glitz
and glam content extravaganza in Mauritius. The six artistes SHOWBIZPLUSng gathered are: Davido, a
Nigerian recording artiste, Diamond Platnumz
(or simply Diamond), from Tanzania; Sarkodie
(also referred to as Obidi Pon Bidi) a Ghanaian hip hop recording artiste, Tiwa Savage, a Nigerian
recording artiste, Lola Rae, a British singer of Nigerian/Ghanaian
descent who garnered recognition
as a dancer in the street dance group “Myztikal” and finally Mi Casa, a South
African band consisting of three members, Dr. Duda (producer) and pianist,
Jsomething (vocalist and guitarist), and Mo-T (trumpeter).
The song is a prelude to a themed campaign that
will play a pivotal role in bringing about meaningful transformation to the
benefit of all. The social and economic needs facing our continent are substantial
and it is a moral duty for big business to make a difference by supporting
projects that benefit our society by creating shared value.
“MultiChoice
Africa has an important role to play in both the economic and
social transformation of our continent and we believe that this campaign provides
the ideal platform to showcase meaningful change among the people of Africa,” says
Nico Meyer, CEO MultiChoice Africa.
The artistes hope to inspire and create a
paradigm shift among Africans with their music as there is so much more to celebrate.
The campaign promises to unearth what is right about
Africa in our ongoing commitment to making a difference in the lives of all Africans.
“We strongly believe that the
quest for good corporate citizenship starts with an acceptance of
responsibility, not only to our subscribers and stakeholders, but to the broader African
community in which we operate and are certain that the collaboration with these
award winning African artists will be the glue that binds communities together
creating a catalyst for change,” concludes
Nico.
