Ghana's Dark Suburb Receives Afrima Nomination
Like they Quoted, ‘’ No matter who you are and where you are
from, no matter what society says you are and where you must be, you can assert
your place in this world and define who you want to be’’
The anomaly Ghanaian popular music band, Dark Suburb has received
a nomination at this year’s All AFRICAN MUSIC AWARDS for their song Mama
featuring the Africa lioness Wiyaala.
Dark Suburb is an alternative rock band from Africa that has
adopted and refined a culture of masquerades in the continent as their image. The
band wears skeleton masks to highlight the point of our shared humanity and to
remind the world that we are one people regardless of sex, race or social
status.
The masks give the band a uniform identity and hides individual egos
and differences just as they expect the people of the world to see themselves
as an important unit in a big team working for a better world.
Dark Suburb represents the forgotten corners of the society
wherein lurks great talent and potential. Fusing all styles of music,
especially African rhythms, with rock. The band constitutes 5 musicians and a
poet who acts as their Chief Priest. Legend has it that the Chief Priest evoked
them from the dead to come and entertain and educate the world through the most
expressive style of music, rock.
