Ghana Celebrity Watch
One of Ghana’s leading role models and a very well respected figure in the industry is out with a new hit for the hiplife lovers titled ‘KPA’. It’s the one and only style and fashion icon Okyeame Kwame, and the video has Accra and James Town written all over it.
There is a saying, ‘A fool and his money are easily parted’ and this is exactly what the song touches on. The video captures the beautiful landscapes of Accra but also the rural, retro, and artistic streets of James Town Ghana. The fabulous menswear garments were provided by two amazing fashion brands Ekuu Fashion Empire & Urban Grey Gh.
The visuals stars a number of celebrities and models such as actors Too Sweet Annan, Ian Wordi and others. Although it’s the hip life sound, Okyeame Kwame taps into a more cultural Ghanaian sound, almost reminiscent of Kaka Tsitsi. Definitely one to cross boundaries. Watch the video below.
UPCOMING TOP EVENTS!
CANEX WKND, presented by African Export Import Bank (Afreximbank) in partnership with the Government of Côte d’Ivoire will be a 3 – day gathering of creatives from across Africa and the diaspora in Abidjan between 25 – 27 November 2022.
Ghana’s leading fashion event Accra Fashion Week is scheduled for 7-11 December 2022 following their 5th-year celebration last year in 2021. Accra Fashion Week is a platform for African designers that can be compared to fashion weeks across the major capitals. It aims to fill the void which sees tremendous creativity and culture across the continent with the absence of an operating fashion infrastructure.
The epic event took place at Ghana Dubai in Accra, and saw models march down the steps from the Kwame Nkrumah Monument whilst being followed by a spotlight, before circulating the central fountains. Memories of the exciting night still give chills as guests revisit the experience on youtube.
However, rest assured that 2022 is going to be even more exciting with greater performances and an upgraded designer collection. FashionGHANA.com is sure to bring you the exclusives we did on www.FashionGHANA.com/TV. All last year’s shows are available to watch on youtube. Designer’s registration is ongoing on the AccraFashionWeek.org website.
As we embark on another year of celebrating African culture, our theme for 2022 is “Afrofuturism.” This term was created to explore the developing intersection of cultural aesthetic, philosophy of science, and philosophy of history as it relates to the African Diaspora. During this year’s events, Afrochella will bring “Afrofuturism” to life through fashion, food, art and music. In 2019, the African Diaspora returned home to the continent for the “Year of Return.” This year, we will explore the endless possibilities of what “Afrofuturism” could look like in 2022 and beyond.
