Reports indicate that the Asakaa Boys' stint in New York was for an upcoming music video.
This comes before their European tour's first stop at London's iconic 1200-capacity venue, Clapham Grand, which has hosted legendary talents, including Public Enemy.
The Asakaa Boys gained mainstream acknowledgement after the COVID-19 pandemic, thriving off viral global hits like Sore by Yaw TOG, which attracted British Ghanaian rapper Stormzy.
Last year, the Recording Academy announced its decision to make the Asakaa genre eligible for its new Best African Music category.
The collective shared their readiness to be nominated at the 2024 Grammy Awards but missed out on the opportunity to become the new category's first winners.
