Rapping from the ladies’ side would be Abrewa Nana and Manye Mercy (formerly of Triple M fame). UK support would come from Sonny Bali, Candy Man, Sonny Achiba, House of Lords, Frankie Boy and Roman Fathers.

There would as well be a comedy set from the funniest man in Ghana - the one and only Agya Koo.

The event would be hosted by E.D.D.I.E and Dentaa from OBE and DJ’s on the night include Alordia & Skoobi (Hot 9000), Abrantie (Choice FM), DJ Makossa (Rainbow Radio), French Kiss, Big L (Oops/Manjaro) and DJ Amita (Rainbow Radio). Clarke Pintoa and Daddy Fingers would be the M.C.’s for the night.
