Until Ras Kimono mounted the stage at the Port Harcourt edition of the MTN Power of 10 Concerts, the event looked like a rehearsal for a show that would take place another day.
That is not to say others who also performed didn’t do well but Kimono was not just a game changer for the night, he had the audience rocking like mad all through his performance.
Those who came had heard news of his return to concert circuit didn’t want to miss his performance.
Up until Joseph Ogbuka of MTN’s Sponsorship and Events got on stage to play the role of anchor pending the arrival of Yaw, there was a collective eagerness among members of the audience for the event to start.
The crowd braved the Port Harcourt rain and impossible traffic to arrive the concert venue on time and they were not disappointed when Ras Kimono took them down the memory lane jamming to hits like ‘Under Pressure’, ‘Little Sugar’ and ‘Rumber Stylee’, among others.
It was classic Ras Kimono with his dreadlocks trailing as he leaped into the air repeatedly.
The audience sure looked like they wanted more when he left the stage but there was no two ways about it, they had had fun.
Next was The Prince who gave nothing less than a princely performance. When J.Martins stepped in, the audience did not need anyone to tell them that he had come to the Civic Centre venue to make them happy. And he did just that.
The last act for the night was Wizkid and there was no kidding about his performance. There is no doubt that Wizkid knows his music and how to use it to his benefit and that of his audience.
Apart from the local acts who graced the stage earlier in the evening there were also Inyanya, Chidinma, Shon Terror, and Wacomzy.
