American rapper, Meek Mill, is set to perform at the 2022 AfroNation concert to be held in December 2022.
Organisers of the show revealed the new line up months ahead of the show, as they took to social media to make the announcement.
Other artistes from Ghana and Nigeria are expected to grace the much-anticipated event of the year.
The Grammy Award-nominated rapper from Philadelphia is no stranger to Afrobeat as he has collaborated with fellow Afro Nation Ghana 2022 headliner Davido on the single ‘Fans Mi’ in 2015.
This Ghana debut is a long-awaited moment for both Meek Mill and his many Ghanaian fans, and makes this year’s Afro Nation all the more interesting.
This comes barely a month after Meek Mill expressed interest in performing in Africa to fans on social media before the year ends. He, however, did not specify which part of the continent he would like to visit.
Earlier in the year, Mills equally tweeted about travelling to different places including Africa. In 2020, he had the support of social media users when he made an unexpected announcement about buying a house in Ghana.
The award-winning hip-hop artiste expressed his interest in buying a property in Ghana as he would not want to “dedicate my whole life to the American lifestyle I been living”. He stated that the move will help him “feel that experience with my family as another option in life!”.
AfroNation Concert in December
This year’s AfroNation Ghana takes place at Marine Drive, Black Star Square on 29th and 30th December, 2022. Founded to unite the diaspora in celebration of Black Joy, the event is back for a celebratory trip of Black culture, music, dance, good food, and so much more.
Alongside Meek Mill and Asake, an impressive array of today’s hottest names have already been revealed for the festival’s big return. Ghana’s own special guest Stonebwoy and Black Sherif are joined by Nigerian party king Davido, the legendary duo P-Square, plus Rema, Dadju, CKay, Adekunle Gold, coming together with Ghana brightest new stars Kuami Eugene, KiDi, Gyakie and Camidoh.
