United States Vice President Kamala Harris earlier today paid a visit to the Vibrate Studios in Accra to meet up with Ghanaian creatives.
Kamala Harris met up with talented Ghanaians from the arts and entertainment industry including the likes of Black Sherif, Amaarae, Joey B, Mensa, Baaba J, Ria boss, the Masked DJ and renowned Ghanaian poet Asantewaa.
She was joined by American author and actress Sheryl Lee Ralph and English actor Edris Elba.
