Ghana is set to host one of the world’s finest music superstars for a historic concert dubbed “Souls of Africa Concert”.

The Independence Square is expected to be filled on Saturday, October 27 by tons of music lovers who would witness the best of John Legend.

Thousands of music enthusiasts are expected to visit the Independence Square to witness a live performance by the popular music star and his 25-member band.

John Legend, five times Grammy award winner and one of the most influential artistes in contemporary music, would perform alongside selected Ghanaian hiplife artistes.

The concert is in aid of victims of the flood disaster in the northern regions as well as a campaign to eradicate Guinea worm, the water-borne disease afflicting people in the north.

The marathon concert which starts at 1pm would as well feature Luciano, the international reggae star and some selected hiplife music stars including Obrafuor, Reggie Rockstone, Tinny, Wulomei, Slim Busterr, King Ayisoba, Mac Tontoh of Osibisa and many others.

There would be contributions from celebrity speakers, development agencies and messages from supporting organizations.

Fans of John Legend who have collaborated with Jay Z, Lauryn Hill, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Puff Daddy and a host of others would have the unique opportunity to meet their hero at a specially arranged autograph session to be announced at the event.

After the show, John Legend and Luciano would travel to the north to visit areas where the Guinea worm disease is prevalent. The move is supported by all the major UN aid agencies in Ghana.
