On March 4, hundreds of fans, dozens of VIPs and artistes were all present at the Accra International Conference Centre for one of the biggest shows ever. Which show was that? It was nothing else than the Beenie Man concert in Ghana which was put together by Citi FM and sponsored by U Touch.
All the hiplife stars performed beyond description and held the audience spellbound. Lord Kenya?s early set warmed the crowd up for 4x4 who showed the audience what time it was.
When Slim Busterr took the stage, wow what an audience. They could not just resist but move their feet.
Castro exhibited a stagecraft beyond description. Through the neatly choreographed moves he did with his entourage, they were able to bring the house to a boiling sensation.
Barely ten minutes later, the evergreen VIP who nearly stole the show bounded onstage and warmed the hearts of the audience with their uplifting tunes.
Oh! ?Aletse? himself: Tinny together with Reggie Rockstone exhibited a different phase of performance by free styling.
Batman backed by his dancers and ?Gogome? gave the ladies and gents a melt down when they took charge. No one was on his or her seat as he was performing.
With a great performance from Buk Bak, the show was nothing short of sensation. As for Kwaadee, well he got the house crazy. He took spirits so high that if people could suspend in the air, they probably would have.
The colourful and dance-ready young adults who made the atmosphere resonate with energy could not help but mime songs of Pache, Davis and Silver Cat (Beenie Man?s companions) as they outdid each other and gave the audience value for their money.
At about 12:00am on Saturday, the man we were all waiting for showed up on stage dressed in his brown Dior velour suit. When he fluttered into the famed Accra International Conference Centre, his panorama of fans came out in droves.
Tribes of many colours represented. Screams of straight hysteria greeted him as he bounded onstage. Backed by his dependable live band and Pache, he cooed his way through a set thick with songs from his old and new albums.
While the crowd eagerly lapped every scream and trill, a particular fervour was reserved for tunes like ?Feel it Boy?, ?King of the Dancehall? and ?Dude?.
Unlike the other shows where the main artiste or artistes perform for about thirty minutes to one hour, last Friday was different as Beenie performed for over two hours even though the house was not filled to capacity.
It all had to end. If the motive of the organizers was to excite the audience, then they did just that. The spirit of the event remained good-natured throughout, and there were certainly no complaints about the line-up.
