Soccer Music Come To Stay

Ghanaians compose songs to celebrate love, bemoan death and lament tragedy of all kinds. The lyrical flair of composers have now transcended comedy and tragedy and landed squarely in the arena of World Cup soccer.

The pre-tournament fever is at its peak, especially because Ghana is having a piece of the action, the first time ever in the country?s wavering fortunes in the game.

To herald Ghana?s historic entry into world-class soccer, G-Force has composed nine songs to cheer the Stars into action, come June. This mission has been well-accomplished.

The album has caught on, and that should be expected, also because the lyrics and arrangements are superb.

The danceable tracks list are 'Seed of Inspiration', 'We Go Go', 'My One & Only' and 'Party' on Side A. The flip spots 'Serve Africa', 'Ghana Mma (Sons of Ghana)', 'IDS is Real', 'Mere Duniya' and 'We Go Go' a remix.

G-Force is a new musical group that emerged with Ghana?s qualification to play in the World Cup. The band is well-equipped with modern instruments blending happily with traditional horns and percussions, drums and conga.

Out of these, patriotic songs are distilled and the outcome is intoxicating. Listeners rise to their feet upon hearing the compelling beat and rhythm. Soccer music has indeed come to stay.
