Internationally acclaimed musician Stonebwoy headlined the 2024 "Campus Go Rock" and "Telecel Turn Up" concerts, delivering thrilling back-to-back performances in two of Ghana's most vibrant regions within just 24 hours.

On Friday, August 16, 2024, the renowned Reggae, Dancehall & Afropop artiste took the stage at the University of Education, Winneba in the Central Region to deliver a full set performance that got the packed crowd energized. After opening with “Hero,” he performed “Into The Future,” “Pull Up,” “Higher,” “Ekelebe,” “Overlord,” and “Manodzi,” among others. He also performed, for the first time, his new single “Pray For Me,” which features legendary Grammy-winning rapper Wyclef Jean.

Without skipping a beat, Stonebwoy arrived in the Bono Region on August 17, where he performed at the Telecel Turn Up concert held at the University of Energy and Natural Resources in Sunyani. Once again, he captivated the audience with his thrilling signature blend of Afro-dancehall beats and conscious lyrics.

The Sunyani crowd, just like in Winneba, was left mesmerized as Stonebwoy effortlessly commanded the stage, proving why he remains one of Ghana's top musical exports.

Stonebwoy is currently promoting his new single “Pray For Me,” featuring Wyclef Jean. The dancehall, afropop-leaning track, produced by Ghanaian-British music maker Sammy Soso, serves as an anthem of resilience and perseverance in the face of life’s hardships.

“Pray For Me” is a significant addition to Stonebwoy’s growing repertoire of socially conscious music and legacy collaborations. The song serves as a precursor to his highly anticipated sixth studio album, slated for release later this year.

"This follows his recent releases “Your Body” and “Ekebele,” a collaboration with Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck. His musical prowess continues to garner global acclaim, evidenced by his recent dominance at the 2024 Telecel Ghana Music Awards, where he scooped up seven prestigious awards, including Artist of the Year.
