Wizkid, having tried unsuccessfully to break into American pop charts with soca-inflected songs, hired the R&B-spangled Alté-sound princess Tems to deliver what could easily be the biggest Afrobeats song yet if recent Soul Train nominations and this summer parties are anything to go by.
In the spirit of bringing the world together through music and counting down to Global Citizen Festival: Accra, here are some of the Ghanaian artists and their songs that have taken TikTok, and the world, by storm.

Every time he releases a collection of songs, Ghanaians select their favourite Afropop/Afrobeats "jam" to give those their attention. However, because there is an effort to push Ghanaian music, this RnB inspired jams from KiDi can be 'exploited' too.
Yes, it may be an RnB inspired work but his diction (exploring the use of pidgin and Ghanaian related terms) and production make his slowed versions of songs rich and enjoyable without sounding like a copy or an imitation of known RnB artistes who may inspire him.
Before 'Odo' became a hit I got my KiDi music fix from these songs including his mash-up of One Dance, Anointing and No Kissing Baby. He turned upbeat Afrobeats songs into one of the best-slowed songs you'd ever listen to and it never gets old.
I completely understood. The RnB-like music does not cater to the mainstream Ghanaian and if he needed to succeed as an artiste, it was in his best interest to make something for the mainstream and it worked and people couldn't be happier.
As a music enthusiast, who snoops around a lot, I realised after his first album that he hasn't completely thrown away his love for RnB. There are songs on Sugar, Blue EP and Golden Boy that veered off the Afrobeats route to a more RnB sound.
This is not a KiDi song but it deserves the honourable mention. In 2016, the Afrobeat uprising finally got to the world. There were great songs that enjoyed massive airplay, especially with how great they were.
This song is on this list not because it is RnB influenced, but because it's just a great song and I believe it should not be buried by Ghanaians. Good news though, it is one of the most listened to KiDi songs on Spotify.
This song has Rnb influences. Speaking about this song in his album, KiDi revealed that this song was inspired by Micheal Jackson. He wrote it using titles of popular Micheal Jackson songs like Dirty Diana, Smooth Criminal, Black or White, Bille Jean, Liberian Girl, Bad and Dangerous (1991 album), which of course is the title of the song.
In the days of Highlife, romantic songs were the order of the day with the likes of Amakye Dede, Daddy Lumba, Ofori Amponsah, Kwabena Kwabena and the late Kofi B churning out music that makes one desire to be with someone.
Today one will struggle to find great love songs from Ghana although the likes of Kidi, King Promise and Kuami Eugene are trying their best to ensure lovers of romantic songs get quality songs to enjoy although Kuami Eugene is accused of stealing songs.
One remembers the days when Ghanaians were matching Nigerians boot for boot in the music industry. The pressure was so high that the biggest artistes in Nigeria at the time P Square had to steal Azonto and rename it Allingo. The likes of Wande Coal and Wizkid were all appreciative of the acts in Ghana with the arguably the best rapper in Nigeria M.I. admitting that when he first met Sarkodie, he was shook. He knew he had to step up his game.
