Antenna
Fuse ODG
WE SAY
Best known for bringing the Ghanian dance craze 'Azonto' to an international audience with his single of the same name, internet phenomenon and UK Afrobeats export Fuse ODG follows up with infectious new single Antenna, which looks almost certain to repeat the meteoric success of its predecessor. Thanks largely to early support from Choice FM, with subsequent playlist additions at 1Xtra and Kiss, the track has climbed the Shazam Top 200 for fourteen consecutive weeks, while the video (featuring Wyclef Jean) is approaching 1.8 million views on YouTube. Inevitably there's a dance craze, set in train by an ODG-initiated competition eliciting entries from the UK, Europe and Africa, and for which the winning entry has notched up 2.5 million views of its own. Expect to be hearing - and dancing to - Antenna all summer.
