The event which was attended by over 2,000 fans who patronized the concert was organised by Inside LLC, Safacom group and E-Litt Group, aims at giving Ghanaian stars the opportunity to crossover with afrobeats on the American market.
“After realizing the lack of Ghanaian artiste present in the afrobeats scene in America, we decided that we would put together a concert that would be the first of its kind,” the organisers told Enewsgh.com.
“We hoped to not only highlight the Ghanaian music industry in America but to also display afrobeats to the World. With this idea in mind, we birthed the Afrobeats to The World, Nineteen 57 Concert.”
Each artist put on a memorable performance that the crowd would never forget, proving that Afrobeats is here to stay,” the organisers added.
