Before introducing Bashir Annan, better known as Gambo, as the man of the moment, Michael Blackson spoke about the explosion of Afrobeats around the world. He noted that Nigeria currently has the most prolific artists, naming stars like Davido, Burna Boy, Kiz Daniel and Wizkid.
He described the entertainment industry in both countries as “Nigeria is like the New York of music and Ghana is becoming the Dubai of Africa”.
“Afrobeat is taking over the world. In fact, I started my own management company called Michael Balkson Management. And I have one of my first Ghanaian artists. Michael Blackson said he introduced Gambo.
“Meet Ghana’s 🇬🇭 next star @gambo_ii who is hard working, God fearing and commands the attention of any audience with his stage presence” Blackson captioned the video on Instagram.
According to Michael Blackson, Ghana has only four top artists; Shatta Wale, Black Sheriff, Stoneboy and Sarkodie. So he is aiming to become the fifth superstar in Ghana with Gambo in his squad.
“Nigeria has all the stars. On the other hand, Ghana is becoming the Dubai of Africa and we only have four people in that whole country and let me do that fifth person- that is Gambo. He said.
Gambo revealed a new single next month with Goya Menor, Cut Soap.
The Michael Blackson Foundation opened its first free private school in Agona Nsaba, the hometown of founder Michael Blackson, in January.
Michael Blackson Management Company is his second project in Ghana.
