Thousands of music enthusiasts thronged the Adaklu Youth Resource Centre on Thursday night for the Torcher Experience Concert headlined by Ghanaian music icon Stonebwoy, blending entertainment with youth empowerment.
The atmosphere at the concert grounds changed, the moment Stonebwoy began his grand entry onto the stage at the “Torcher Experience” concert.
As the powerful Ewe song “Mele Gbagbe Há Wo le alia” started playing through the speakers, the crowd erupted with loud cheers and excitement waving their hands in unison, sang along, and some held up their phones with flashlights, lighting up the night as they waited to see the Bhim Nation President appear.
Notable of him, Stonebwoy stepped onto the stage with well-rehearsed symbolic choreography and energy, dressed stylishly as he was ushered on the stage by white-clad men wielding long sticks, from where he acknowledged the massive crowd.
The song created an emotional and energetic mood, making the audience feel connected to the performance. As he moved closer to the front of the stage, the cheers grew even louder, setting the tone for an unforgettable night of music and celebration in Ho and beyond as patrons celebrate music, unity and community spirit.
The venue came alive with excitement as fans sang along to popular songs and enjoyed energetic stage performances, creating a vibrant atmosphere that lasted late into the morning.
A delegation led by Mr James Gunu, together with Edem Agbana and Edem Kpotosu, Members of Parliament of Ketu North and Ho Central, respectively attended the event, and presented a citation and helped in cutting a birthday cake to the artiste in recognition of his contribution to music and youth development.
Mr Gunu commended Stonebwoy for projecting the Volta Region and Ghana onto the global stage through music while inspiring young people to pursue their talents and ambitions.
In a notable gesture during the concert, the artiste donated GH¢100,000 as seed funding towards the Volta Youth Development Fund, an initiative aimed at supporting youth entrepreneurship and creating opportunities for young people in the region.
Although the concert recorded massive patronage and lively performances, some patrons raised concerns about intermittent sound challenges; however, many remained at the venue until about 05:30am hours, cheering and calling for more performances as Stonebwoy thrilled the audience with his dynamic stagecraft and popular hits.

Legendary US-based Ghanaian musician, producer, and music entrepreneur Nana King is getting ready for the release of his highly anticipated new album 4EVR Champion Vol. 1.
The much-awaited album was released worldwide on Friday, March 6, 2026, a historic and iconic date in Ghana.
The ambitious 25-track album marks the first installment of a two-part series: 4EVR Champion Vol. 1, which launches a major new chapter for Nana King whose claim to fame was ignited over two decades ago, and the second part scheduled for release later this year, continuing the momentum of what is shaping up to be one of the most expansive projects of his career.
Nana King is widely recognized as one of the pioneers of the Hiplife genre who helped shape the groundbreaking sound that emerged from Ghana in the late 90s.
However, on the latest project 4EVR Champion Vol. 1, he blends that legacy with a modern global sound, combining Hiplife, Afro Trap, R&B, and hip-hop into a vibrant and internationally accessible record.
4EVR Champion Vol. 1 moves fluidly between smooth R&B melodies, rhythm-driven Afro Trap production, classic Hiplife flows, and modern hip-hop arrangements, with a lot of melodic vocal hooks that gives the project a worldwide listenership appeal.
The album also presents a multilingual experience, featuring songs in English, Twi, and Pidgin, reflecting the diverse cultural influences behind Nana King’s music and giving it a distinctive international flavor.
Nana King brings together decades of musical experience with a forward-looking vision which is evident in the impressive roster of collaborators from across the contemporary music scene.
Notably, all of the featured artists on the album, except Kwacy Boat, are signed to Nana King’s label, Ashanti International Records, highlighting the strength of the roster he has developed and mentored through the label.
Reigning rap queen Nana Queen appears on two of the album’s most anticipated tracks.
She joins Nana King on the title track “4EVR Champion”, a bold Afro Trap reinterpretation of Nana King’s iconic 1999 anthem “Champion,” originally recorded with Ghanaian rap legend Ex-Doe.
Nana Queen also appears on the breakout single “Woye Medo”, which has already been dominating radio airwaves throughout the early months of 2026.
Other featured artists include Lucia on “Fake”, Kwacy Boat on “Anadwo Yɛ Dɛ”, Boy Spike on “Ɔnnye Wo Deɛ” and Shegeeh on “Odononie”. These collaborations showcase the range of voices shaping Nana King’s latest musical vision.
In his part, COO of Ashanti International Records/Nana King’s Manager, Marcelle Sirkus noted that “this album celebrates the sound that cemented Nana King’s legacy, while setting a new standard for hiplife artists worldwide.”
Meanwhile, the album’s early buzz has been fueled by the success of Nana King’s single Woye Medo, which has been steadily gaining traction on radio and streaming platforms since the start of the year.
Blending heartfelt Twi lyrics with modern production and Afro Trap rhythm, the song has quickly become a standout release and a signal that Nana King’s sound continues to resonate across generations.
More than two decades after helping shape the Hiplife movement, Nana King is now pushing that sound beyond borders. The music video for the Title Track “4EVR Champion” is certain to thrill fans upon its release in a few weeks.
As 4EVR Champion Vol. 1 arrived on Friday, March 6, the message behind the album is clear: Nana King’s intentions go beyond revisiting the legacy he helped create; he’s bringing the sound he pioneered to a worldwide audience in a bold new era.
Born William O. A. Konadu Jr. in Los Angeles, Nana King later lived in Ghana, where he launched his record label Ashanti International Records.
Through the label, he developed and mentored numerous artists who would go on to become chart-topping stars, helping to define a generation of Ghanaian music.
