Reclaiming African Identity and Cultural Influence: ODG
Description
Nana Richard Abiona, widely known by his stage name Fuse ODG, is a British-Ghanaian singer, songwriter, and rapper who gained international recognition with global hits like "Azonto," "Antenna," and "Dangerous Love," all of which climbed the UK Top 10 charts. He sits down with Harrison Paul on The Pan African Lifestyle Show to explore his journey not only as a global music icon but also as a leading voice for Pan-African pride and cultural reclamation. Beyond the charts, Fuse ODG has become a powerful advocate for redefining African identity, particularly within the diaspora. His work challenges colonial narratives, dismantles harmful stereotypes, and encourages a deep reconnection to African traditions, names, and values. Through his music and activism, he calls for a world where Africans—at home and abroad—can fully embrace who they are, unapologetically.
