The streets of Tafo Ahenbronum witnessed a cultural shift on the night of Saturday, January 3, 2026. Emerging musical powerhouse Saberima, affectionately known by his fans as “Saberima de Starboi,” successfully hosted his first-ever major concert, cementing his status as the new pride of Kumasi.
The event wasn’t just a concert; it was a homecoming and a testament to the artist’s growth since he began his musical journey in 2021.
A Platform for the Future
True to his reputation for supporting his peers, Saberima turned the spotlight on the Kumasi creative scene. The concert provided a massive platform for 15 emerging artists from the region, allowing them to showcase their talent before a high-energy crowd.
The atmosphere was set by the “generals” of the microphone: MC Sandy Ken, MC Owurachy, and MC Panda, who kept the energy at a fever pitch. On the decks, DJ Positive earned his name, delivering an excellent set of back-to-back hits that kept the 500-plus fans dancing from the 10 p.m. start time.
Star-Studded Endorsements
The event gained significant prestige with the physical presence and blessings of Tafo’s leadership, including:
- Nana Agyin Frimpong (Chief of Tafo)
- Hon. Vincent Assafuah, Esq. (MP of the constituency)
- Hon. Sadiq Abubakar (MCE of Tafo)
While the crowd missed a performance by YPee due to unforeseen circumstances, the multi-talented 39_40 (actor, singer, and rapper) electrified the stage. He delivered a high-octane set featuring fan favorites like “Active N Action,” “Trap Boys,” and “Crazy Night.”
The Moment: Saberima Takes the Stage
At 2 a.m., the man of the hour, Saberima, emerged to a deafening roar. He opened his set with the deeply personal and emotional track “No Regrets.” The song, which chronicles his struggles and triumphs in the industry since 2021, moved the audience as he narrated his journey from the very streets of Tafo where they stood.
His versatile setlist kept the momentum going, featuring a mix of his biggest tracks:
- Only Jah
- Obi
- Away
- One Night
- Saara
- Yenda
- Krokro Me
In a touching moment during his performance, a fan presented Saberima with a hand-drawn portrait on stage, a gesture of appreciation for the “Starboi” who has brought so much pride to the community.
A Legacy in the Making
The energy was so infectious that when the show officially ended at 5 a.m., the crowd refused to leave, chanting for Saberima to continue until 7 a.m.
”Everywhere I go, they see the star in me,” Saberima remarked, reflecting on his nickname. “To see Tafo come out like this for me is a blessing I won’t take for granted.”
Following the overwhelming success of this maiden edition, Saberima and his management team have officially announced that this concert will become an annual event, ensuring that every January, Tafo Ahenbronum will remain the center of the Kumasi music universe.
