Popular Ghanaian DJ, Gideon Alorgbey, known professionally as DJ Sly King, has capped off a remarkable year by returning to his hometown of Sege with three prestigious trophies from the Ghana DJ Awards 2025, where he swept the categories of Best DJ of the Year, Best Male DJ of the Year, and Best DJ - Greater Accra.

The DJ, who also joined the Recording Academy's 2025 Grammy class, brought his achievements home to the people of Sege during the town's annual street carnival festival, which took place from 25th to 26th December.

The homecoming was especially meaningful for DJ Sly King, who has spent fifteen years building an extensive career in Ghana's music industry.

Speaking about his triple win at the Ghana DJ Awards, he expressed deep gratitude to what he calls his Unstoppable Nation.

"This is all you, Unstoppable Nation. To my incredible fans, everyone who has supported the journey, voted, showed up and believed in the vision, we did this together. Thank you to the Ghana DJ Awards for the recognition. This is just the beginning," he remarked.

Sege Fest 2025, which DJ Sly King founded eleven years ago as a way of giving back to his community, has evolved into a major cultural event for the town, and the 2025 edition carried additional weight as he used the platform to showcase his recent accomplishments to his people.

The two-day festival opened on December 25 with traditional Soweto dancing, a cultural expression that holds deep importance in the Ada and Sege communities.

The celebrations then transitioned into a full street carnival featuring performances from several artistes, including Hardcore Original, Slick Banner, Spain Bowy, Gee Force and Klasstex, with DJ Sly King headlining the musical festivities alongside fellow disc jockeys DJ Wizzy, DJ Liberty, Blaq DJ and DJ Konazzy.

The event was coordinated by a team of MCs including MC Mola, Hypeman Joel Oluwa, MC Bance, MC Skorlah Brain and MC Manye Esther, who kept the energy high throughout the carnival.

The festival culminated on 26th December with a football match, bringing together community members in a celebration that honoured both tradition and contemporary entertainment.
