Ashanti promises a ‘great’ show
A few hours into Guyana, Ashanti got some things right and some things wrong.
Hits and Jams have proclaimed her as the first diva to hit these shores, and she told local press she has some Guyana flags ready, and was waiting for someone to offer her some Pepperpot. We like that. She has come here with her entire family, Mom and Dad included.
Ashanti
Ashanti is referred to as the princess of R&B and we look forward to her performance this evening. “It’s gonna be a great show,” she promises.
Rawle Ferguson of the organizing group said that the show is a collaboration between Hits and Jams, Kashif and Shanghai and the government of Guyana as part of an agreement to produce three major shows every year – one in February, one in August and one in December. Kashif Mohamed said that security arrangements have been stepped up to ensure an incident-free show.
Ashanti is actually the second international act to perform during the Christmas Night concert at the National Stadium.
After three local artistes perform, Konshens will perform followed by Ashanti.
Closing off the show will be reggae superstar Jah Cure.
“Everything is on schedule; on track,” said Ferguson.
