Akon, Kerri Hilson Oh Africa


I came across this song as I was browsing the web. It is a charitable single and a joint venture with PepsiCo. This song will form part of Pepsi’s football ad theme. Look out for cameos from football favourites such as Didier Drogba and Fernando Torres. Part of the proceeds from this single will go to Akon’s charity Konfidence Foundation which does many things in Senegal including mobile clinics and education. Some profits go to charities chosen by Kerri Hilson.



The song includes the Soweto choir and some aspiring artists across the globe. The video is amazing. Full of colour and vibrant. I think it captures Africa’s spirit. Africa is full of life and her culture and music ought to be celebrated more often.



What do you think of the song?
