With Nigeria taking the initiative after rapper Falz mounted the stage, Ghanaian hip hop artist M.anifest stepped up to the plate and delivered a classic performance that confounded critics and delighted purists.
After almost thirty minutes of consummate musicianship, social media was abuzz with opinion leaving 'm.anifest' as one of the trending topics.
Ironically, the rapper prides himself on not following trends and that trait was on full display as he effectively combined a DJ with instruments on the night while introducing guests to new sensation Kwesi Arthur and rising star Worlasi.
Despite the polarization online, one thing the critics and supporters could agree on is that M.anifest is in a class of his own, clearly stamping his own unique brand on the Ghanaian music scene.
