#ƮÈA_NEWS | GHANA I Fuse ODG Proves Doubting Thomases Wrong

Fuse ODG just like many Ghanaians was captivated by the ‘Azonto dance craze’ in Ghana and as a musician tweeted ‘Kilbeatz’ to produce a beat for his song ‘azonto’ which he featured Tiffanny. As a matter of fact he was taught how to dance Azonto by Killbeatz and he rightly paid homage to him in that song ‘Kilbeatz thought me this’.

The ‘azonto song’ became a hit and not only that Fuse ODG began the journey of promoting “the azonto dance” to the world which he succeeded in doing perfectly, but for him azonto dance would have been stagnant in Ghana.

But some believed that he was going to be a one hit maker after the release of his hit song “azonto” but that wasn’t to be the case as he proved the doubting Thomases wrong with even a bigger hit with the release of “Antenna” which subsequently has won him a MOBO AWARD.

Aside his talent, this is what intrigue me about FUSE ODG, unlike his colleagues like Sway and some Ghanaians who feel proud to identify themselves with countries in overseas they reside or were born into

Fuse ODG is a departure from that mentality and feels proud to be Ghanaian and reps our country even though he has stayed in UK for God knows when.

Apart from that, he is using his music not only to pioneer azonto but rally Africans together and seeks to change the negative impression about our continent as a result of the negative publicity the western media portray us.This is the reason behind his slogan.

“THIS NEW AFRICA” and fellow Africans who love his music have bought into it.

With such a VISION backed with a MISSION and communicated through words and actions with PRECISION by Fuse ODG I have no doubt in my mind that it will lead to a successful COMPLETION!!
