“Love Like this!” Kelvyn Boy hails Sarkodie for requesting his song in a London club
Kelvyn Boy has expressed gratitude to Ghanaian rapper, Sarkodie, for asking a Londoner DJ to play his song, Down Flat.
When he heard what had happened he tweeted;
So, King @sarkodie requested at a club in London last night for #Downflat to be played for him!! Love like this!! Hail you 👑
From the video, the DJ is heard saying, “special request from King Sark,” as the crowd jammed to the impressive song that has gone viral.
The BET awardee showed he loves his own when he requested the song to be played in a jammed club.
As a result of this act by the Vodafone Ghana Music Award’s “Artiste of the Decade,” the already viral song will gain more traction among Londoners who might have not heard the song up until now.
At the moment, Down Flat is topping the music charts in the country. Many people have participated in the dance challenge that has propelled the soothing love song since it was released. Star artistes such as Wizkid and King Promise have been seen dancing to the song.
Kelvyn Boy is a fast-rising Ghanaian Afrobeat singer from Assin-Fosu, in Ghana’s Central region. He was signed by Stonebwoy onto his record label, Burniton Music Group. However, due to some controversies, he left the label in 2019.

Sista Afia keen on winning Highlife Artiste of the Year crown
Ghanaian music diva, Sista Afia is keen on winning the Highlife Artiste of the Year crown.
Sista Afia, the only female nominated in a category with men, had 27 successful shows,both locally and internationally, within the year under review.
This notwithstanding, she believes that the number of music releases coupled with numerous performances across the country and abroad puts her in pole position to win the ultimate.
She is of the belief that as the only female in the category testifies the level of work she put in to be amongst the men.
Sista Afia has therefore urged the board, the academy and the general public to vote for her massively to win the crown.
For the past 10 years, she has poured her heart and soul into preserving and innovating Ghana’s beloved highlife sound, weaving modern rhythms with soulful melodies that keep the genre alive in the hearts of the youth.
While trends have come and gone, Sista Afia stayed true to her roots, giving us timeless music that tells real stories, our stories.
What makes her presence powerful isn’t just her voice or her music; it’s her message. In every note she sings, there’s a quiet defiance. A reminder that women, too, can carry the legacy of highlife.
The 26th TGMA is slated to take place on May 10 at the Grand Arena.
The event will see varied performances and artistes who have distinguished themselves in the year under review rewarded.
