Ebony tribute concert today

Ruff Town Entertainment, in collaboration with the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA), Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture and Kasapreko Company Limited, will today, Friday, 23 March 2018 organise a tribute musical concert for the late Ebony Reigns.

Many artistes including Sarkodie, Samini, Stonebwoy and many others are billed to perform at the event at the Trade Fair centre in Accra.

This will be followed by the final funeral rites and burial service for the late Ebony, born Priscilla Opoku Kwarteng, on March 24 at the forecourt of the State House in Accra.

Bullet, the manager of late singer earlier this week expressed disappointment that some artistes wanted to be paid to perform at the tribute concert. He however failed to name any artiste.

Ebony died in a gory accident on the Sunyani-Kumasi road while returning to Accra from Sunyani.

Her childhood friend and Personal Assistant, Franky Kuri and one Air Force official, Francis Atsu Vondee, who posed as a bodyguard also died in the car crash.

Born 16 February 1997 Priscilla Opoku-Kwarteng aka Ebony, Ghanaian dancehall/Afrobeats artist who is widely known for her hits ‘Sponsor’ and ‘Kupe’, was exposed to the music industry by Bullet her manager.

She proved herself worthy to be maintained in the industry after her first song "Dancefloor", in December 2015 became a hit and was nominated for the unsung category at the 2016 Ghana Music Awards.
