No music sheet in front of them but playing every bite of sound and vocal 100%, including all the arrangements. This is how I confirm that God made Africans different and so special. Well done guys, and most importantly, keep it up. 🎉❤

[@atiajoseph9837]

Ooooo masa,these guys are good, they are very talented indeed . Nyama hyira mo

I keep telling people Africa has music. I mean soul to soul and sweet music yet to conquer the world. Love love love high life music. Only a matter of time. Singing in your original music keeps the music and feelings authentic since its in the DNA of the people that play it. Why copy when you have all these rich heavenly sound…keep playing and getting better. Share your roots with the world. Bravooooo 🇨🇲 🇺🇸

[@CepartGate]

To revive highlife again to the highest level I suggest there should be a national highlife competition among bands around the country and if possible among school bands as well.

[@kojowiredu]

Yes Sir! Absolutely right on this idea.

[@samakrong6105]

What a great suggestion 👌 👏. During my secondary school days, MC5 (Matthew Chapter 5) of St. John's was the school group I loved so much. WestCoast_Ebusua, you guys rock. Any K. Gyasi covers?
