According to Blakk Rasta who disclosed this in an interview with Myjoyonline.com, he has “an invitation from President Sirleaf Johnson” to perform at the concert due to the popularity of his Barack Obama song and the huge impact his songs in general have had on Africa, especially Liberia.
Blakk Rasta who will be performing with his band, The Herbalist Band, promised a trademark performance – one that will bring to bare his iconic figure to his fans. “We will go down there and do something magical for the Liberian people,” he affirmed.
The elated Blakk Rasta disclosed that, “one interesting aspect of the concert is that it marks the final term of Madam Ellen Johnson Sirleaf’s presidency and she will use the event to celebrate her tenure in office.”
