Labadi came to a virtual standstill last Sunday,
January 25 as a star-studded line up of the biggest
names on the contemporary Ghanaian music scene
came together to thrill fans at the Margarita beach
carnival held at the La Pleasure Beach in Accra.
The beach carnival, powered by Kasapreko
Company Limited, drew an overwhelmingly large
number of beach party lovers who enjoyed
performances from Samini, Stonebwoy, Keche,
Guru, Rashid Metal and a host of underground
artistes.
The carnival started with performances from
underground artiste who set the tone for the show,
with the crowd screaming for more at each
performance.
Keche were the first major artistes to perform. The
duo had the crowd of revellers singing along to their
hit song ‘Diabetes’ and many of their other hits.
Before Stonebwoy mounted the stage,
Guru’s ‘Pooley’ and ‘Lapaz Toyota’ kept the crowd
excited as he performed hit after hit. Guru was
quickly followed by Rashid Metal, the sensational
new artiste in the music industry already making
waves with his version of the hit song ‘Baafira’.

Stonebwoy, the Ashaiman-bred dancehall
superstar, sang songs such as ‘Climax’, ‘Pull
Up’, ‘Ghetto Love’, ‘Can’t Cool’ and of course his
version of controversial song, ‘Baafira’, undoubtedly
the crowd’s favourite. Stonebwoy also called on his
fans to support made-in-Ghana products and was
grateful to Kasapreko for sponsoring the show to
mark the beginning of the year.
Even with all the exciting performances, the crowd
had lots of energy to jive along with the ‘Linda’hit
maker, Samini, throughout his performance. Samini
also dropped hit song after hit song with a live band
and backup singers. He sang both his old songs
and current hits with his latest ‘Iskoki,’getting
patrons gyrating and singing in unison as he
performed. Samini was the entertainer of the night
as he engaged the crowd as they sang along with
him throughout his stage performance.
Patrons were given free Margarita at the gates, a
product of Kasapreko Company Limited.
