"Aint Nothing But A Dance all Night Long"
The success of the Ghana Black Stars, affectionately dubbed the "Brazil of Africa" in the last 2006 World Cup in Germany, is the epic confounding sound heard around the globe. Like the proverbial effervescent resplendent palm wine it even gets better with time as their successive successes would attest to. They have become one of the most exciting and most feared soccer nations in the world. The stars world ranking has also gone up, they are enjoying celebrity status as they pack stadiums and their merchandise has skyrocketed. The national soccer team's success story must always be enjoyed forever; it is literary the come back kid story, given that they fell to Italy in their maiden world cup match, in the most difficult group, dubbed the Group of Death by sports enthusiasts and writers.
Having witnessed the amazing and sometimes emotional support from fans around the world, it is fair to organize a jam session in Philadelphia to celebrate Ghana's Black Star Pride. The event dubbed; The Ghana Black Stars Pride Smash is following the footsteps of the big celebration organized for the stars in Accra, Ghana. After the Accra event, many soccer fans across America bombarded Mr. CNN with many requests to host similar event here. How can one resist when your country calls? We went to work, we consulted the old woman, and Ghana Black Stars Pride Smash is the result. Finally the dream has become a reality and whereas the stars will not be in Philly to be part of the occasion, it is still going to be a night to dance to the "break of dawn" to toast and celebrate the success of our national team.
Four heavy hitter DJs from North America namely; Elove, Sam Q, A1 and Ronnie will come together to provide non-stop music on October 28th, at the hall of Our Lady of Sorrow Church, (Between 48 th & Lancaster Ave) near the Philadelphia Zoo. The event to be hosted by funnyman/MC; Papa Linc is in conjunction with; www.thevibelab.com , one of the most enjoying entertainment web sites at the moment; and ticket is $15. Endorsed by heavy hitter promoters; Sammy Tuga & Associates, J Q Promotions, Boogie-Down Productions and Rob Definitions.
