Exporting Ghanaian music to Nigeria, an exercise in futility? The case of the Menzgold & Zylofon Media Nigeria launch concert
In my 12 years of writing about entertainment in Ghana, the crossing over of music between Ghana and Nigeria has been heavily skewed towards Nigerian music travelling into and across Ghana. As someone who started my writing journey with a Nigerian-owned magazine, Ovation Magazine, I’ve seen it all! Usually, we only see Nigerian stars on the bill for major shows in Ghana and not so much, vice versa. So when Zylofon Media and Menzgold decided to change the status quo a little, I decided to be a part of the experience, no matter the cost. I labored tirelessly to get my passport from the South African consulate just in time to travel to Lagos for the event on Friday.

Nana Appiah Mensah, who owns the two companies, officially launch the Nigerian branches of Zylofon Media and Menzgold on Friday, climaxing it with a concert dubbed the Zylofon Media & Menzgold Naija Invasion Concert.

Although it is not yet clear what Zylofon Media (which is a creative arts business focusing on film, music, fashion and media) hopes to do in the Nigerian space, being able to push Ghanaian music more in Nigeria would be more than welcomed for many Ghanaians.
But how easy would that be, and is it even worth it? Are Nigerians too stuck on their own music to make room for Ghanaian music on a larger scale? The answers are not as clear as day, but perhaps there are some things to learn from Zylofon Media & Menzgold Naija Invasion Concert.
What happened at the concert
The concert was a well-organized event with a great setup and an impressive guest list of industry people, business people; and a general stand for other guests who won tickets online and through other media activations. The show started pretty late with some unknown acts opening the night. Zylofon Arts Club products, Zylo also got the chance to perform on stage before eventually the main show kicked off with Nigerian singer, Ninioala.
After Niniola came another Nigerian act, YCee, during whose performance the standing crowd of mostly young Nigerians came around the stage. This crowd and the way the interacted with the artists on stage soon became the yardstick for measuring the performances of the acts on stage, although the other general audience also played a key role. 
After YCEE came Ice Prince and back-to-back, the crowd participation was great; from those around the stage to those seated and standing throughout the convention center. It was same for Patoranking, who followed after Ice Prince. 
The ‘test’ for the popularity of Ghanaian music and artists in Nigeria started when the first Zylofon Music signee, Obibini got on stage. He put up a spirited and well-coordinated performance for a rap act, but the cheers and reactions he got mostly came from the Zylofon Media and Menzgold team that attended the event from Ghana. 
The case was better for Joyce Blessing, who moved the crowd with her hit song ‘Overcomer’. Although the crowd didn’t know the song to sing along, some danced because of the rhythm and the energy of Joyce Blessing on stage. Her second song was a popular gospel song (I’ve forgotten the title, and I think it was originally done by a Nigerian singer), for which she got a lot of reaction and singing along from the crowd. She wrapped up her performance with Lucky Dube’s ‘Different Colours’ as if she came to drum home the message, that whether Ghanaian or Nigerian music, we should all support one other. 
Next on stage was Kumi Guitar. He cleverly opened his performance with ‘Yellow Sisi’, a song that was made popular in Nigeria and the rest of the world by Okukuseku International Band, led by Chief Sammy Kofi. The crowd by the stage didn’t show too much enthusiasm, but the seated guests seemed to have enjoyed it. Although Kumi didn’t get any marked improvement in terms of reactions from the crowd, you could feel a generation appreciation for his highlife music in the air, when he performed ‘Betweener’ and ‘I Have A Dream’. 
There was more music from Ghana when King Promise, who was in Lagos for a tour, came on stage as a surprise act. The reaction was not any different, although I saw a lot of the people around the stage taking selfie-shots with his performance. He was the only non- Zylofon Music signee on the show from Ghana. 
Becca was the next Zylofon signee to hit the stage. Introduced elaborately by host Olisa Adibua as the Queen of Ghanaian music, Becca took to the stage to open with the rather mellow ‘Sumye’. Her entry on stage, her dressing and stagecraft gained her some good reaction from the crowd. She showed more showmanship when she rather interacted with the crowd by passing on the microphone to the crowd for them to sing parts of her second song on the night, ‘African Woman’. 
Becca continued to strike some gold when she closed her performance with ‘Na Wash’, her hit song that featured Patoranking, although she performed all by herself on the night. The crowd loved it; they danced and sang along. 
The last but one Zylofon Music signee to come one stage was Shatta Wale, arguably Ghana’s most-talked about artist. He came after a charged performance from M.I, who even went as far as giving a special introduction of Shatta Wale as a legend who is the only artist in the world to release a song each day for all the 365 days of the year.
However all the appellations did nothing for Shatta with the Nigerian crowd; majority of them stood unconcerned and watched on. Again majority of the shouting, singing along and dancing came from the Ghanaian team that came for the event. 
What was surprising was how the crowd went into a frenzy when Dammy Krane and Burna Boy joined Shatta on stage at different points to perform their collaborations with the Ghanaian dancehall star. The crowd actually even sang out the lines of Burna Boy in their ‘Hosanna’ collaboration, meaning they at least knew the song. 
The last Zylofon signee to perform was Stonebwoy. Although I was out of the hall for most of his performance, the little I saw wasn’t any different from the previous Ghanaian performers. Perhaps the time he got stage (3 AM for a show that was supposed to start from 7pm) didn’t improve his chances to wow the Nigerians. I’m saying this because when the MC announced that Stonebwoy would be performing on the night, earlier in the show, there were some wild exclamations of anticipation.The Big Questions
So there you have it… a report on what went down when Zylofon Media and Menzgold ‘invaded’ Lagos, Nigeria with Ghanaian music! Maybe the outcome would have been different if other Ghanaian musicians with hit songs in Nigeria, like Sarkodie, Efya, R2bees, Patapaa, Kuami Eugene, Bisa Kdei and others were added to the bill. Maybe if the show started on time, the crowd may have found the energy to respond to ‘good’ music that they weren’t familiar with. Anyway, was the outcome of the concert enough to say that Nigerians do not play or appreciate Ghanaian music? Should Nigeria, a country with so many superstar talents and even more unknown ones struggling for attention within, be a target for Ghanaian musicians? If so, what should be the approach? How did Tic Tac, VIP, Bollie, MzBel, Castro and others do it in the past? How did Sarkodie and Efya do it in more recent times? (As for Pataapa I don’t want to add him to the list, he is a Magician). What were the benefits for these artists, who have had smash hits in Nigeria? Over the years, collaborations have been a way to go, and it seems that is the surest bet even from the reactions at the Menzgold and Zylofon Media launch concert. The style and language of music also counts for different audiences. I found out during my recent visit to Enugu, that they played a lot more Ghanaian music there because the Igbo people generally like Ghanaian music due to a common highlife culture. Throughout my stay in Nigeria, from Enugu to Lagos the Ghanaian artists currently getting listens particularly in clubs and at events are Magnom, Kidi, Kuami Eugene, and Bisa Kdei. Others include Stonebwoy, Sarkodie and Shatta Wale. Maybe these artists have to visit Nigeria more often, do media tours to get Nigerians to know then better; and do more performances in Nigeria (that’s if people are even booking Ghanaian artists for Nigeria at all). Is the Nigerian market even worth the hustle? Or should we focus on building a flourishing industry in Ghana capable of taking care of itself, while the music organically travels beyond our borders?

What would Ghana losing AfroNation to Nigeria mean?
The recent conversations about AfroNation going to Nigeria has flashes of deja vu. Whether it is Highlife, Hiplife, Azonto, Afrobeats or the Year of Return, (which led to Tourism becoming one of the countries top earners) Ghana consistently seems to be the nursery or nurturing ground of pioneering and brilliant ideas.
When it comes to independence on the continent, Ghana can claim to be the pioneers. When it comes to uniting the Pan-African diaspora, again, Ghana has a leading role! In football, the Black Stars shine bright. But often, somewhere along the course, we seem to lose inertia, and before we know it, we are left in the shadows and someone is doing it bigger and better than us.

Beyond the Return is perhaps the biggest legacy of President Akufo-Addo because it can live on forever. It has no end. AfroNation was the star global attraction. So, thoughts of losing it have me worried. Can we afford to also let this legacy defining event go to Nigeria instead? They may be our dear brothers and sisters, and we may the only people who understand that our rivalry is always friendly, but each time they take the baton and run with it, I cannot help but wish it was us this time.
Since Ghana showed the way, many other African nations are learning how to try to attract the “diaspora dollar.” They may not have the historical significance that Ghana has, but they are making the best of what they have, and music, especially Afrobeats and Amapiano are helping.
They have understood that direct tourism, via the 10,000 to 15,000 people that can travel to Ghana just for ANG is significant. Those people benefit the whole community as they spend on travel, accommodation, transport, food, events, bars, nightclubs, etc.
Tourism is a big income earner for global cities like New York, London and Paris . Can Accra afford to continue losing such massive opportunities? AfroNationGhana brought the best and the brightest Afrobeats stars to Ghana in the biggest Afrobeats concerts Ghana has ever seen.

Just as it was reported during the premiere event for ‘GH Queens’ sometime in April, some stars from the pseudo-reality TV show were again missing from the Reunion show, which started airing on Friday. Yes, the fiesty Sista Afia and Fantana will not be making an appearance on the three-part special reunion show on Akwaaba Magic (DStv channel 150). (more…)

Coachella through the eyes of an African
My second showing at the Coachella Music & Arts Festival confirmed to me the sheer diversity of talent and music that gets showcased each year. But Coachella is more than music and arts, it is a celebration of cultures, the spirit of people, fashion, and more. If you’re a conservative African, then expect some cultural shocks as the festival doesn’t hold back in celebrating life and accepting it in all of its forms.

The festival embraces queer and intersecting groups, so seeing raunchy and over-the-top costumes from festival-goers is to be expected. Some of the washrooms on the festival grounds are even gender-neutral, so expect to see both women and men queuing up to use the same washroom. Marijuana has been legal in California for many years, so you should also expect people to smoke at free range; without much care for those who don’t. If you’re able to look beyond all these as “an African”, then you too can have a swell time at Coachella!
After seeing Burna Boy and Mr Eazi perform in 2019, when I had my first experience of Coachella, I felt proud as an African. I also noticed how the African festival-goers (from mainly across the United States and the United Kingdom) watched with some pride the performances from Mr Eazi and Burna Boy on the Coachella stage. So when the lineup was announced for 2000 to include Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 and Aya Nakamura, I was happy that Africans were becoming a regular on the festival’s lineup. Sadly, Covid-19 didn’t let that happen in 2020 and 2021. In fact, I almost entered a $2,000 bet with my colleague blogger, David Mawuli that when the festival returned, there would be a Ghanaian artist on the lineup. Thank goodness I rather spent that money on a bonus hunt online casino. Well, at least I won $120 back!
When the lineup was announced for 2022, the only African on the main stages was Black Coffee, while fellow South Africans, Major League DJZ scheduled for The DoLab tent. So when I attended weekend two of the festival, I made sure to watch Black Coffee’s set. He played on Day 1. Unlike the Burna Boy and Mr Eazi sets, that I witnessed in 2019, the audience at Black Coffee’s set was not predominantly Africans. It was a global audience. The crowd was as thick as it was energetic. It was also exciting to hear the 2022 Grammy Award Best Dance/ Electronic Album-winner, incorporate remixes of some authentic African rhythms in his set.

On Day 1, I also showed some interest in Pakistani vocalist Arooj Aftab, who won the Grammy this year for Best Global Performance. A lot of Africans had tipped ‘Essence’ by Wizkid and Tems for that award. So, I had to find out for myself what makes Arooj Aftab tick.

With these two performances of interest out of the way, I stuck to my plan of focusing on big acts that I haven’t seen performing before because, with the grand nature of the festival and the sheer size of the venue, it is simply impossible to experience everything!
The Empire Polo Club is a 78-acre polo club, which leases out its polo grounds for the festival. The venue is so huge that festivalgoers walk for several miles before getting into the main entrance to the festival grounds. When accounting for land used for parking and camping, the event covers a footprint of over 600 acres!
Across the grounds, several stages continuously host live music. The main stages are the Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre, Gobi Tent, Mojave Tent, and Sahara Tent; in addition to the smaller Yuma stage and Sonora stage. Each stage was unique in appearance and suited for the lineup of artists on it. The big stages had elaborate settings to create various visual aesthetic attributes needed to project the individuality of the artists and make festival-goers enjoy their performances even better.

I missed Ari Lenox’s performance at Afrochella in Ghana this past December so, I had to experience her set especially after all the buzz she generated on social media with her visit to Ghana. The sultry singer hit the stage, giving fans a look and performance to remember. The D.C. native hit the stage in a jaw-dropping gold ensemble to perform several ‘woke female’ themed songs for her fans.
Anitta proved why she is a sensation in the Latin world and beyond, with her high octane performances. The Brazilian singer changed into three different sexy outfits that accentuated her figure as she rocked them in front of an enthusiastic crowd.
Baby Keem, who recently won a Grammy for best rap performance, was one of the up-and-coming hip-hop performers at the festival. One of the highlights from his set was bringing on label boss, Kendrick Lamar, a little over 30 minutes into his set. The rappers, both in all-black ensembles, performed together for the final two songs including “family ties.”
I ended Day 1 with Harry Styles who literally brought disco to the desert! One of the biggest highlights from the set of the “As It Was” singer, was bringing Lizzo on stage to perform a song from the One Direction archives. It was fun to see him perform with so much energy, and he was very interactive with the crowd too.
Day 2

On Day 2 I kicked things off with a performance from R&B singer, Giveon. I was late in getting to the venue but was happy to at least see him perform his hit song ‘Heartbreak Anniversary’ before he left the stage. I then visited The Do Lab stage for some electrifying DJ mixes and performances.

Grammy-winning rapper, Megan Thee Stallion showed all the hot girls and boys of Coachella how a superstar commands a stage during her hour-long set. She opened her show with “Megan’s Piano” wearing a black and silver spacey one-piece with futuristic glasses on. She and her backup dancers shook everything they had, and the crowd went wild as expected.

Rapper, Isaiah Rashad opened his set with a powerful pre-recorded film acknowledging recent speculation about his sexuality. In a collage of media footage and audio, commentators react to a video of Rashad leaked this year, showing the rapper being intimate with two men. He gave fans back-to-back performances of his hit songs amidst cheers and a lot of support.
Billie Eilish, Coachella Stage, Saturday
When I saw Billie Eelish on the Coachella lineup in 2019 I didn’t know her back then, so I didn’t attend her set, but days after I found out she was the new it-girl and she later went on to sweep the Grammy Awards the following year. So, this time I simply had to experience her, and I did! Her 90-minute set featured songs like “NDA,” “Therefore I Am,” “idontwannabeyouanymore” and “You Should See Me In A Crown.” She had a small accident when she fell onstage while singing “Getting Older.” Later on during her set, Eilish brought along her brother Finneas O’Connell for an acoustic cover of her single “Your Power.”
21 Savage, Coachella 2022, Performances, Sahara, Saturday 04-23
I closed the night with a little bit of 21 Savage!
Day 3
On Day 3 I was physically worn out from all the standing and walking, so I didn’t want to do too much. I circled my day around a few acts. I kicked off with Brixton rapper Dave, whose set was attended by a huge UK crowd that cheered him along throughout his performance!
View this post on Instagram
He recreated his “Alex From Glasto” viral moment from 2019 by picking a fan from the crowd to join him on stage to rap a verse from ‘Thiago Silva,’ his 2016 hit with AJ Tracey. He also performed his hit song ‘Location’ which features Burna Boy. Dave’s set was one of my favorites!
Since I had seen Doja Cat recently at Day N Vegas, I only saw the tail end of her set, as I wanted to go to the Coachella Stage on time to get closer to the headliners Swedish House Mafia and The Weeknd. I wasn’t so sure when they were announced as the replacement of Kanye West but seeing them back-to-back made so much sense, and the energy was just what was needed to bring Coachella to an end!
View this post on Instagram
Swedish House Mafia started things off, dropping hit electronic dance music tracks back-to-back, punctuated by fireworks and pyrotechnics. Their set lasted about 55 minutes. When they played their most popular song, “Don’t You Worry Child,” they dropped the music entirely at the key moment to allow the crowd to sing the chorus in unison.

The Weeknd then rolled through with a crowd-pleasing list of hits, including “The Hills,” “Starboy” and “I Feel It Coming.” He was amazing on the night although his set lacked a lot of the theatrics and stagecraft and special guests. He closed his set with a slowed-down version of his mega-hit “Save Your Tears.” Then Swedish House Mafia rejoined him and they closed the set, and the 2022 Coachella experience, together with the song “Moth to a Flame.”

Ameyaw Debrah wants to sue Kanye West for pulling out of Coachella, after he spent over $3000 planning his trip
Ghanaian blogger, Ameyaw Debrah is looking to sue someone over Monday’s news that rapper, Kanye West had pulled out of the upcoming Coachella Music and Arts festival…and Kanye for now is the obvious choice!
According to the blogger, he has spent almost $4,000 in booking flights and a hotel for the two-weekend festival in Indio, California, which runs April 15-17 and April 22-24. He pointed out the unusually high prices of accommodation in the area due to the festival.
In a video posted on Ameyaw TV, Debrah cited possible mental stress from spending so much money, and not getting what he paid for in the end. He however hopes the Kanye’s replacement can make up for his troubles.
According to reports from Variety, reps for West and the festival did not immediately respond to requests for comment as to why the rapper pulled out of the festival.
The reason for his cancelation was not immediately clear, although a source tells Variety that he had not rehearsed or prepared for the appearance. While West played a full set, accompanied by Drake, at the Los Angeles Coliseum in December, Coachella is North America’s largest music festival and by necessity runs a very tight operation. West also pulled out of a planned headlining appearance at the 2020 festival — which ultimately was postponed until this year due to the pandemic — mere days before it was announced, sources confirmed to Variety at the time.
Yet there are many other reasons why news does not come as a shock, as West’s unpredictable and combative behavior in recent months put a question mark over his appearance even as it was announced in January; he had been barred from a planned appearance at Sunday night’s Grammy Awards due to what was described as his “concerning online behavior.” West canceled the closing dates of his 2016 “Saint Pablo” tour and was hospitalized for mental-health reasons shortly afterward, following incidents that were similar in ways to his behavior in recent months. West has said many times that he suffers from bipolar disorder.
Coachella’s first two nights will be headlined by Harry Styles and Billie Eilish. The festival essentially hedged its bets on West by billing EDM titans Swedish House Mafia in an unspecified spot on the lineup, listed at the bottom of the official announcement poster, leaving open the option of the group replacing him as Sunday’s headliner in the event he pulled out. With the festival just 11 days away, that seems a likely scenario.
Rumors had been circulating that Travis Scott would be joining West for the performance, but TMZ says that he will not be appearing either. Scott has been keeping a low profile since 10 people died in a rush toward the stage during his headlining performance at his Astroworld festival in Houston in October.
Such an appearance would be on-message for West, who in recent months has been publicly embracing such ostracized celebrities as Marilyn Manson, who is accused of sexual assault, and DaBaby, who has made unapologetically homophobic comments in recent months.

Africans don’t trust each other – my experience with an Ethiopian taxi driver in Las Vegas
My recent trip to Las Vegas, Nevada came with many experiences, as I put myself out there to explore the city a lot more than I did in my previous two visits. My first time in Vegas was for one night only, to attend the Miss Universe finale in 2017. My second time was for the Day N Vegas festival in 2019, which also brought me back for a third time this year.
On day-two of Day N Vegas, I had an experience that corroborated the belief of many Africans, that we do not trust one another. Due to Day N Vegas, most of the area around the Las Vegas Festival Grounds was closed to taxis and rideshare apps such as Uber and Lift, which made it very stressful to get a car whenever I closed from the festival and headed to my hotel room. It meant that after walking and standing at the grounds for hours, we had to walk quite a distance to look for cars.
What does this mean @ATT pic.twitter.com/ppZENPmKeL
— Ameyaw Debrah (@ameyaw112) November 13, 2021
My experience was even made worse when the data on my AT&T phone number kept failing, meaning that after all the stress covering the concerts, I couldn’t use Uber to request for a ride. On the night of day 2, I discovered that there was a pick-up point for taxis within the Circus Circus Hotel, Casino & Theme Park. Sadly the taxis were not coming in as rapidly as I would have wished for. I was the third in line, but it took over one hour of standing in the queue till I finally got a taxi.
When the taxi came, I got in but when the driver asked for the address I was going to, I couldn’t remember the location of my hotel. I mentioned the name of the hotel, but the driver wasn’t familiar with it and insisted that he couldn’t take me if I didn’t get the address for him. I wasn’t willing to waste the hours of standing and waiting to be turned down by any driver. My internet wasn’t working, and I tried to ask him to use his internet Ito locate the hotel, but he was indifferent. I told him “lets go to downtown and I will know where my hotel is, because it’s not far from the Fremont Street”.
Finally, he agreed and moved on. Then he started a conversation with me, once he suspected I was from Africa. I told him I was from Ghana when he told me he was Ethiopian. He asked about my visit and thought I was a ‘new rich African’ when I told him I was in town for Day N Vegas.
When, I finally arrived at my hotel I tried to pay with a card. Since it was a metered cab, I could see my fare right in front of me, with a POS device for payment. But I noted it was slightly expensive paying with a card compared to paying cash, so I told the driver that I would rather pay with cash, after all I am African!
Then surprisingly he asked me how much I would pay him, the meter said $18 so I said I will give him $20 but he screamed “no $25!” I then gave him a $100 note to which he retorted, “are you sure it’s not fake?”. I said no, laughed it off and collected my change.
Watch my vlog on the experience below:
Interestingly, the following night, I had internet, so I ordered for an Uber ride after the Day N Vegas finale, and again the driver was Ethiopian. This time it was a younger driver and we had an interesting conversation about Africa and the civil war in Ethiopia.
I had noticed that there were a lot of Ethiopians in Vegas. Most of the African restaurants listed on Uber Eats are Ethiopian and most of the drivers were too. When I pointed it out in our conversation, he told me that Vegas has the next biggest concentration of Ethiopians in the USA after the DMV tristate. I also found out that affluent Ethiopians like to buy Mississauga Real Estate styled homes in the USA.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately 68,001 people reported Ethiopian ancestry in 2000. Between 2007 and 2011, there were approximately 151,515 Ethiopia-born residents in the United States. According to Aaron Matteo Terrazas, “if the descendants of Ethiopian-born migrants (the second generation and up) are included, the estimates range upwards of 460,000 in the United States.
Some Ethiopians living in the US enjoy using exquisitely designed Ten Point Crossbow in archery games. Football is the most popular sport in Ethiopia. The Ethiopian national football team called the “Walyia Antelopes” won the 1962 African Cup of nations and in 2013 Ethiopia qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations for the first time in 31 years.
Other sports played include basketball, volleyball, and tennis. Ethiopia has a tradition of medal-winning runners: Abebe Bikila, Belayneh Dinsamo, and Derartu Tulu. Haile Gebreselassie has set several world records.
Ethiopia has made remarkable progress in education, with primary school net enrolment tripling between 2000 and 2016 to the current 100 per cent. Although most children enroll in school, many do not complete their education: 85 per cent make it past Grade 5 and 54 per cent past Grade 8. Progress has been enabled through a sustained government-led effort to reduce poverty and expand the public education system equitably. This has been backed by substantial increases in national education expenditure and aid to the sector, as well as improved planning and implementation capacity at all levels. According to Boardingschools.ca, there is a good number of Ethiopians having higher education in Canada.
Ethiopian national identity is grounded in the long history of Christianity and Islam in the region, and independence from foreign rule since antiquity.
