KJ Spio reveals challenges and highlights of Sarkodie’s desert virtual concert

Rapper Sarkodie recently took on the Dubai desert, making him the first African artist to host a full concert in the UAE desert, made possible by CEEK, an award-winning developer of premium social virtual and augmented reality experiences.

According to KJ Spio, Creative Director of CEEK, putting together the virtual concert came with a few challenges and plenty of highlights.

He said, “Some of the challenges that we had was mainly finding the right crew in such a short period of time and getting the logistics and things like dancers in and out of the desert. But all that came through together and it was so much fun.”

He added: “The highlights for me were definitely how quick the CEEK team came through. They flew people from America.

“Big shout out to ‘Big Cap’ he was super instrumental in getting us some people on the ground. Another highlight I will also say was just seeing a kind of a stripped-back performance from Sarkodie, just him and the music in the desert, without too many distractions. I think that was very special”

Sarkodie took to the desert under beaming sunlight, opening with ‘Illuminati’, leading into ‘Rollies and Cigars’, he continued his charged performances, right through to finishing with ‘Adonai’ which is taken off his Sarkology album.
