Obrafour kicks off 2023 US Tour with first concert in New York City
Ghanaian hiplife legend Obrafour is set to go on his first tour in 2023, My Homeland Concert, starting with a concert at the Palladium Times Square, New York City.
Obrafour is a Ghanaian rapper and hip-hop musician known for his conscious lyrics and political content. He is considered one of the pioneers of the Ghanaian music scene and has been active since the late 1990s. He has released several albums and collaborated with many other artists.
My Homeland Concert will highlight the rich Ghanaian culture through the power of Hiplife music, which has been the foundation for today’s African sounds celebrated as Afrobeats.
It will also bring together Ghanaian and diasporan communities from all over the world.
Obrafour’s debut album, Pae Muka, released in 1999, is still one of the best of the earliest Hiplife records. In 2019, Obrafour celebrated his 20th anniversary with musical concerts and appearances to commemorate the year.
Obrafour has released several albums to his name, including Asem Sebe, Heavy and Kasiebo.
