Asantewa spoke about the #BlackGirlsGlow (BBG) project and their upcoming ‘Mother Of Heirs‘ concert.
BGG is “a concept that aims to raise the profile of female artists locally, regionally and globally by highlighting and showcasing the brilliant and talented young female artists making waves in the Ghanaian entertainment industry. It is based on the notion that musical collaboration is a uniquely powerful way to connect people across political and cultural barriers.”
The team is made up of six ladies – Poetra Asantewa, Dzyadzorm, Adomaa, Cina Soul, Fu and Ria Boss. They recently released ‘Mother of Heirs,’ a road trip through femininity and creation, a declaration of independence in the Ghanaian artistic scene.
The 12-track project includes melody, rap, rhythm, poetry and harmony working together and drawing influence from Hip Hop, Jazz, Soul, Blues, Spoken Word and R&B, to create a fusion of genres in perfect balance.
Live FM parades the best of presenters and DJs in the industry including Jay Foley, Jeremie, Antoine Mensah, Sammy Forson, Berla Mundi, Vanessa Gyan, DJ L0rd, Regina Krave, Pastor Micheal Sagoe, Jason, Kofi Okyere Darko (KOD), Sheldon, DJ Bass, DJ Isaac Cool, DJ Mingle, Bianca Buckman, Jeshurun Okyere and Masta Jay.
The station covered extensively the 2016 Black Entertainment Television (BET) Awards, as the official media partner in Ghana after agreeing to a deal with organizers, Viacom International Media Networks.
Early this year, the station agreed to a deal with leading lifestyle and entertainment media organization TRACE. The two bodies agreed to tap into their existing strengths to provide compelling content that sits at the heart of Africa’s ever growing media and entertainment landscape.
A successful story that started in May 2015, LIVE FM has grown to become Ghana’s best testament of what youthful exuberance when unrestricted in creativity, can do, and the nation’s most exciting urban youth radio brand with a large following.
The station belongs to leading media group EIB Network, which also owns GH One TV, Starr FM, Kasapa FM, Ultimate FM, Empire FM, Abusua FM, Agoo FM, Agoo TV, and the Daily Heritage newspaper.
