Tsadidi Street Art Festival Wows Public With Grand Procession Led By GlennSamm
The Tsadidi Street Art Festival once again captivated audiences with a spectacular celebration of creativity, culture, and community spirit. This year’s edition reaffirmed Keta’s growing reputation as the artistic heart of the Volta Region, showcasing the transformative power of public art and collective expression.
Curated by renowned walking artist GlennSamm popularly known by his performance persona Akabutu and Ian Kwakye the three-day festival offered an immersive experience that blended art, music, tradition, and social engagement.
The festivities began on Friday, 31st October, with the Children’s Dorm Project at the Keta Municipal Government Hospital — a heartwarming initiative that combined art and healing. In collaboration with the InPosters Art Collective, a group of contemporary Ghanaian visual artists known for their experimental and socially responsive works, volunteers and local creatives transformed the hospital’s children’s ward into a bright, inspiring space filled with color, murals, and hope. The project symbolized the festival’s belief in art as a vehicle for community care and emotional wellness.
That evening, the community gathered along the shores for Bonfire Night, an intimate and joyous event that brought together locals, visitors, and performers around music, storytelling, and drumming. Under the coastal night sky, participants shared stories of heritage, resilience, and creativity — setting a soulful tone for the days ahead.
On Saturday, 1st November, Keta’s streets exploded into life with a grand art procession led by GlennSamm (Akabutu). The dynamic parade featured striking costumes, energetic traditional drumming, graffiti installations, live painting, and interactive performances that turned the town into a moving gallery of color and rhythm. The fusion of contemporary street art with traditional Anlo aesthetics created a breathtaking visual dialogue between past and present — a hallmark of the Tsadidi experience.
The festival culminated on Sunday, with residents and visitors flooding the streets in a jubilant celebration of community pride, creativity, and shared identity. Local teams, vendors, and artisans joined in for outdoor card games and turned Keta into a mosaic of cultural vibrancy and social unity.
Supported by the Ghana Tourism Authority and the Petroleum Commission of Ghana, the Tsadidi Street Art Festival continues to evolve as a major cultural platform celebrating the artistic pulse and heritage of Keta, the Anlo people, and the wider Volta Region.

HM EyeJah Set To Drop His New Afro-Dancehall Banger “Party Cyaan Over”
Ghana’s fast-rising Afro-Dancehall artist HM EyeJah is about to turn up the heat with his brand-new single, “Party Cyaan Over,” set for release on November 14, 2025. Produced by Fresh Mic Beat and powered by RiverJam Entertainment, the track promises to be a full-blown street anthem with irresistible vibes.
A Vibe That Never Ends
“Party Cyaan Over” is more than just a party jam — it’s an energy booster. The record blends Caribbean dancehall rhythms with Afrobeat’s vibrant groove, creating a feel-good sound that instantly moves the body. From the catchy hook “Party cyaan over, bare bad gyal ah bruk it out here” to the booming bass and dance-ready tempo, this song has everything to light up any dance floor — from Accra to Kingston.
HM EyeJah delivers his trademark confidence and positive energy, reminding listeners that music is meant to unite and celebrate life. It’s that kind of tune that doesn’t fade when the night ends — the type you hit replay on without thinking twice.
About HM EyeJah
Born Solomon Badasu Gbeve in Tema, Ghana, HM EyeJah represents the new wave of Afro-Dancehall music — authentic, spiritual, and full of heart. His stage name, HeroMade Eyes of Jah, reflects his deep faith and self-belief, inspired by Psalm 17:8: “Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings.”
Currently based in Kpone-on-Sea in the Greater Accra Region, EyeJah draws from his surroundings — where Highlife, Reggae, and Afrobeat meet the streets — to craft a sound that feels both deeply Ghanaian and globally connected. Since debuting with “Takeover,” and following up with songs like “Vision,” “Balance Pon It,” and “Good Vibe,” he’s steadily built a loyal following that connects with his message of faith, perseverance, and unity.
His growing fanbase, known as SkulSyde, reflects a family of believers and dreamers — people who, like EyeJah, believe in striving for greatness no matter the odds.
The New Afro-Dancehall Wave
As one of the freshest voices bridging Ghana’s Afrobeat and Dancehall culture, HM EyeJah is helping define a new sound that’s proudly African yet universally appealing. His music carries the spirit of celebration, resilience, and togetherness — and “Party Cyaan Over” is a perfect example of that.
If you’re looking for the next song to turn up to, this is it. A track that says the fun never stops, the spirit never dies, and the rhythm keeps flowing.
Then you can’t definitely wait for the banger to drop
