BECCA?A True Star Is Born

Ghanaian music lovers and entertainment enthusiasts have for years yearned and prayed for a local artiste who can raise high the flag of Ghana, as well as rub shoulders with the best on the world stage.

Many have often wondered why as a country we do not have a music star whose name rings a bell like other artistes such as Hugh Masekela, Mariam Makeba, Salif Keita, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Angelique Kidjo, among several other renowned Africa music stars.

All those worried music lovers can now heave a sigh of relief.Thanks to a leading record label, EKB, the much awaited ?music saviour?, who is expected to lead Ghana to the ?promised music land? has been discovered. She is Rebecca Akosua Acheampomaa Acheampong, aka Becca.

Although this young, energetic and pretty artiste is yet to release her maiden album, she has been groomed by the management of EKB Records to become a professional artiste who is already on the way to stardom.

Anyone who has had the opportunity to see Becca live in action will attest to the fact that she is not only ready to take the local music industry by storm, but is also capable of mounting a stage anywhere in the world and would compete favourably with internationally-acclaimed music stars.

She is the kind of musician who can thrill her audience with spectacular performances at all times.

Indeed, she has been groomed into a complete entertainer who does not only possess a sweet silky-voice, but also knows how and when to make
her fans happy.

It therefore came as no surprise when world-acclaimed South African music legend, Hugh Masekela saw her potential the first time he spotted her and promised to help make her dreams of becoming a superstar a reality.

Hugh Masekela, who is all for unearthing great African talents, has kept his word and is fea

tured on Becca?s yet-to-be released album. The ten-track album, which is a classic combination of English and Twi tracks is likely to blow the minds of listeners once it hits the market, hopefully soon.

According to her manager, the young artiste?s album has been packaged not only for the Ghanaian market but the entire African continent especially the English-speaking countries and the world at large.

Interestingly, though Becca does English tracks perfectly, the young lady is still conscious of her cultural background and maintains her chic Afro-centric image. Her African awareness and identity are vividly portrayed in the lyrics of her songs and videos.

Anyway, has anyone seen the first class videos of Becca currently running on the screens? Check it out and draw your own conclusions.

Unlike most local artistes who go for rehearsals only when there is an impending performance, Becca, knowing very well where she wants to be with her musical career, rehearses between six and eight hours daily.

After her early morning physical training, she goes into a hectic voice training session, undertakes her guitar lessons and practices with her eight-piece band.

Her great vocal versatility, dynamic movements and general stage charisma gets those around applauding unend, even during rehearsals.

Knowing very well that it takes a mature and an enlightened mind for one to become a great musician, Becca has taken her education seriously and presently holds a diploma in child psychology.
