Allo TiGO Launches Music Reality Show

Premium entertainment show Allo Tigo has launched a new music reality show. The show dubbed Kings and Queens of the Underground is the first of the series of improvisations made by the CIMG nominated program.

The show which seeks to bring the dreams of two lucky individuals who seek to make an impact in the music industry into reality is a concept masterminded by the Allo Tigo and XFM presenter, Jon Germain and his team. Speaking to Quame Junior in a recent interview, Jon explained the motive and prospects that the project beholds.

“I brought this project up because, everyday people walk to me and give me their demo tapes and say please help me get a producer, so I thought why not? And that is why I came up with this with the help of my team.” He further expatiated on the processes involved in the project and how one could be part.

“All you need to do is pick up a form at Metro TV for GH? 50, then simply drop your demo tape, in cases where there is lack of a demo tape, you can just record your voice or your rap or whatever it is you have to present on a phone and put it on a CD and drop it at Metro TV.

A competent team of judges will then sit and vet all the materials presented and choose two lucky winners. It is open to all groups, individuals, rappers, singers; whatever genre of music you do is welcomed.”

The package for the two lucky winners includes; 5 track production from ace producers Kaywa and Appietus, 1 free video shot, video shown for 3 months on the AD cycle on Metro TV, airplay on XFM and other radio stations, interviews on Allo Tigo and other entertainment platforms and finally video shown on Channel O and MTV Base.

The reality show which is currently ongoing will end in August by which the winners will be declared and their prices given to them.
