Ghanaian Disc Jockey in USA to be honoured

Over the years, there have been many memorable Ghanaian events which have occurred in America, and most of the time, one person becomes the entertainer who makes the occasion a success. The person drives guests to the dance floor with their creative skills on the "turn-table" by delivering non-stop old and new school, Ghanaian music as well as reggae, Soukous, R&B and Hip-pop. Many of these Disc Jockeys have been entertaining the community for over 20 years. There are also DJ's who have not been in the game for so long but are very creative, competitive and "dangerous". One such DJ happens to be the youngest Ghanaian DJ in America; DJ Ronnie, Bronx, NY.

Having a selection of DJs gives the community a variety to choose from. With such great talent, it is surprising that over the years, these experts have not received the recognition they deserve. Fortunately, that era of not being recognized is a thing of the past. The 1st Annual Ghanaian Disc Jockey Recognition Night will take place on July 3rd, 2007.

According to the brain behind the event, Hashim Haruna, CEO of Boogie Down Productions, "For so long we have danced to the mixes of these DJs and now we need the community's support in recognizing them."

The Ghanaian community is a grateful for the commitment of DJs and as such, no one is going to miss the night of Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007, a memorable night to show appreciation for these wonderful "heavy hitters" of all party mixes. The event will occur at Party Place Ballroom, 3405 3rd Ave Bronx NY 10456 Between E.166th &167th Streets.
