We couldn’t miss the heartbeat of Liberia celebrities being spotted at the event as we represent the majority of supporters around the world. Liberia international pop diva LORTONIO and her PR and talk show host RODA STARLET of The Social Lyfe were both spotted hanging out with big names like Fally Ipupa and MasterCraft.

In few videos, we saw the highly concentrated and focused LORTONIO washed on as other performers took to the stage an energy beyond expected. We look for to 2019 and the future and hoping to see what other Liberian artists will bring to their various stages and most importantly to the world stage at large.
Yemi Alide and Eddy Kenzo two powerhouse performers brought the energy with both performings few of their hit songs earlier during the event. Yemi with her ethnical love for Nigeria culture was fully customised in her all-black attire partially covered with the infamous Nigerian bees and mixed with a South African hat. Her ban was outstanding in a full playback of African sound through the performance.
