Becca to share same stage with Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay

Rebecca Acheampong, also known as Becca,  an Ghanaian Afro Pop musician , will Saturday share the same stage with some of the biggest names in New York.

The musician has been named as one of the artistes who will perform at the Global Goals Citizens Festival in New York City on Saturday, September 26.

The festival, headlined by Beyoncé, Pearl Jam, Ed Sheeran, and Coldplay, will be held on the Great Lawn of New York City’s Central Park, where 60,000 global citizens will gather.

Becca is among a number of African artistes including Yemi Alade of Nigeria, Mafikizolo of South Africa and Sauti Sol of Kenya who featured on ‘Tell Everybody’, an African song aimed at adding a voice to the Global Goals Citizens campaign.

The Global Goals Citizens campaign involves a plan to end extreme poverty, tackle inequality and reduce the impact of climate change by 2030.

This agenda is championed by a group of activists led by the film-maker Richard Curtis, whose Project Everyone initiative – run in partnership with the campaign groups action/2015 and Global Citizen – aims to reach 7 billion in seven days.

The whole idea is to push for the full implementation of the agenda by making the goals famous.
