Ghanaian musician Fancy Gadam has opened up about the flying stunt he performed at the sixth edition of the Gadam Nation concert on Saturday, October 26, 2024.
The Tamale native delivered an electrifying performance with his hit soundtracks in front of a large crowd at the sold-out event at the 4000-capacity Bukom Boxing Arena in Accra.
The Total Cheat hitmaker, renowned for his showmanship, flew over the crowd and performed in the air with suspension wires as he made his grand entry to the stage.
Fancy Gadam speaks on flying stunt
In an interview with media personality Abeiku Santana, Fancy Gadam shared that he did not participate in rehearsals for the stunt and had never performed anything close to it before the Gadam Nation concert.
He said he decided to perform the flying stunt after witnessing international artistes like Chris Brown and Wizkid do so at their respective music concerts.
He said:
“I didn’t rehearse. I had never done such a thing before. I saw a couple of artistes doing it. I saw Chris Brown’s own. I saw when Wizkid did his own at the O2 arena.”
Fancy Gadam noted that he was the first Ghanaian artiste to perform such a stunt at any music concert and that none of his colleagues had ever attempted to do anything similar.
He said:
“Nobody has done that. This is the first time.”
Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh on Fancy Gadam's stunts
In a conversation with YEN.com.gh, entertainment analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh shared his thoughts on Fancy Gadam's lack of preparation for the stunt and its safety risks.
He said:
"If truly there were no rehearsals, then it was an act of recklessness from him and his team. Any disaster would have been a disaster. Most Ghanaian shows don't have insurance and any mishap could have marred the event. Even though it went well, I don't think we need to keep encouraging such recklessness.”
