Sarkodie announces “Rapperholic The Rebirth” edition
Decorated Ghanaian rapper, Michael Owusu Addo, known in showbiz circles as Sarkodie has announced his annual concert slated for December.
This year’s event, dubbed ” Rapperholic The Rebirth” is scheduled for December 25, at the Grand Arena, Accra International Conference Centre.
According to the Cambridge English Dictionary, ‘Rebirth’ is a new period of growth of something or an increase in popularity of something that was popular in the past.
Considering the unpredictability nature of Sarkodie and his incessant desire for a touch of class in all his endeavours, it is clear that the rapper is up to something with the rebirth edition of Rapperholic.
The announcement was made on his social media platforms without supporting artistes and tickets.
However, it is expected that in the coming days, the rapper will make public all this information as a build-up to the programme.
This answers many questions by patrons and a section of industry players regarding the announcement of the concert going into December, as it has excited music lovers.
The Rebirth edition happens to be the 11th since the inception of the concert to provide an immeasurable experience for his fans and music lovers
Sarkodie has been on tour for the major part of the year with his Jams album, packing auditoriums and parks to project Ghana on the music scene.
