“I think one of the best times I remember was us performing at the opening ceremony of AFCON finals in Ghana. We were on that stage with 2 Face. That time he was doing his hit song ‘African Queen’. So, Blu*3 was one of the opening acts, and it was wild. That is when I met all those footballers. It was so nice,” she shared.
The performance not only placed Blu*3 on a continental stage but also marked a defining moment in their career.
Sharing the stage with Nigerian superstar 2 Face Idibia, who was then riding high on the success of his timeless hit “African Queen,” opened new opportunities for them.
