YEN.com.gh talked to pop-culture journalist Olele Salvador, who weighed in on the thinking behind Medikal's lineup and the possible impact on the rapper's career.

The artistes in the lineup are heavyweights, and no one would be wrong to be concerned about the financial strain on the artiste. I thought the same until I spoke with Medikal himself, and they concluded that most of the people on his lineup were returning favours. Plus, he had a tour operator helping to assuage travel costs. That notwithstanding, I still believe this is a great opportunity for corporate Ghana to identify the immense potential of this concert and tap in."
