Versatile musician Sista Afia has made the shortlist for the Top 100 African musician unveiled by Pan-African Entertainment Channel, Watsup TV.
The “Weather” hitmaker was surprisingly the only female artiste from Ghana to be named among the tall list of successful musicians on the African continent.
Sista Afia has over the past few years risen to become the new face of Ghana’s music industry demonstrating her ruthless singing and rapping abilities and has received praise for bringing a new energy into Ghana’s music industry.
Other female artistes who made the shortlist across the continent include: Charlotte Dipanda (Cameroon), Latifa (Tunisia), Tiwa Savage (Nigeria), Teni (Nigeria), Yemi Alade (Nigeria), Salma Rachid (Morocco), among others.
On the other hand, only 9 Ghanaian male artistes were able to make the shortlist and they include Kidi, Kuami Eugene, Medikal, King Promise, Kwesi Arthur, Stonebwoy, Shatta Wale, R2Bees and Sarkodie.
