On this week's installment of the Accra tapes we sit with the founders of the Ghanaian born and bred mega-music fest "Afrochella". Abdul, Kenny & Varnell passed through to break down the purpose of Afrochella and how it is working to help propel the African/Ghanaian culture and community, some of the challenges faced and the success that has come from organizing and throwing the music fest. The guys also broke down how their mission is actually to provide a platform for African creatives and entrepreneurs and to give back to the community that us and our parents all call home. DJ Earthkwak briefly discusses the Stonebwoy & Shatta Wale incident that happened at the VGMA's in Ghana over the weekend and added some additional insight into security in Africa. ENJOY
