The Asabaako Music Festival will go on as initially planned without an appearance by US hiphop star, Talib Kweli following difficulties in bringing the rapper to Ghana, as recently advertised.  For many fans of the rapper, they first heard the sad news when Talib Kweli tweeted that he was disappointed to announce that he wouldn’t be able to perform in Ghana.

It would be recalled that Talib Kweli only became an option when the rapper wrote on Twitter that he would love to contact the promoters of the music festival in Ghana because he was interested in taking part.  Asaabako will go ahead from March 5 – 7, at Busua Beach, Western Region with an Independence Day concert with Gyedu Blay Ambolley, Yaa Pono, Wanlov, Efya and others.

The concert on Independence Day is the jewel in the crown of 3 days at the Busua Beach Resort, the Black Star Surf Shop and the African Rainbow Resort, where live bands and DJs will be playing day and night. Alongside the music there’ll be beach soccer, volleyball, surfing, kayaking, grills, beach fires and more, plus tourist activities, from boat trips to jungle treks. Or, just relax by the beach, go for a swim, and enjoy the vibe!
