BlackBusters Brings Their Music to Zhongshan

Today I noticed that tomorrow night in Zhongshan, Guangdong, will be different from other nights because BlackBusters will perform at Vivi Plus.

According to an article on Modern Ghana:

African music has seen a rebirth in the last decade that has opened it up on the world stage like never before. Exploring that growth even further is the China-based duo, Blackbusters comprising MC Rhymes-Apple and DJ St3v3.

Rhymes-Apple originally hails from Ghana while DJ St3v3, also known as Estifanos comes from Ethiopia. Blackbusters first gained popularity in the middle of 2015, after founding and hosting a night party at Playhouse Night Club, one of Asia’s most famous nightclubs. . . .

Rhymes-Apple Ofori-Atta better known by his stage name as MC Rhymes-Apple holds a Bachelors degree in Arts and double masters degrees in Entertainment Management and International Trade. He started recording his own music in 2003 during his high school days then released a mix tape in 2010 titled ”Fruity Juicy”. . . .

DJ St3v3 is a well-spoken and articulate professional Disc Jockey. He has the experience in working on Radio, clubs and music festivals. He started to have a passion for music a early as age 13. Steve has established himself as one of the fastest-growing young DJs and producers for electronic dance music.

The article appears in many online locations and much of the content can be found on the BlackBusters website as well, where you can also experience some of their performances.

According to the apparent BlackBusters Instagram account, they have performed in a variety of cities across China such as Wuxi, Taiyuan, Kunming, and Guangzhou. In an online video they speak about the challenges of their frequent travel and also about how they got together:

And I now see that this Saturday won't be as unique as I had first guessed. BlackBusters has performed in Zhongshan before. I won't be able to report on their upcoming engagement, but hopefully everybody has a grand time.
