Over 300 of the continent's key tastemakers and industry executives, as well as some of the continent's biggest artists, including Tiwa Savage, Elaine, Ayra Starr, Black Sherif, TRESOR, Pheelz, Sauti Sol, King Promise, GuiltyBeatz, and Jidenna, attended this premium VIP event.
Dadaboy Ehiz (Africa Now Radio host) and Dotty (Apple Music 1 host and Lead Cultural Curator, Black Music, UK) were also in Accra to celebrate.
Dotty said “Our first time in Ghana was unforgettable–an event unlike any other in Accra. This is an event that can really become an annual staple in the black music calendar”.
said Ehiz “Celebrating African music on the continent was the perfect way to end the year. Seeing all the stakeholders come together at the Africa Now event was indeed a great time for the music scene on the continent”.
The first Africa Now event set a precedent for more successful editions to follow, with a DJ lineup curated by the Apple Music team that included SPINALL (Nigeria), TxC (South Africa), and DJ Aroma (Ghana).
