Sarkodie (born Michael Owusu Addo), is a Ghanaian rapper
Christmas Day at the Grand Arena of the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) was set ablaze by the energy of Rapperholic 2025, Sarkodie’s highly anticipated annual musical extravaganza.
According to a report by GhanaWebTV on December 25, 2025, the atmosphere was charged with excitement long before the Landlord himself took the stage.
Supporting acts like Kweku Smoke, Wendy Shay, Lasmid and others kept the crowd hyped and engaged, setting the tone for an electrifying night.
For over two hours, fans were treated to an impressive lineup of hits, featuring popular tracks such as “Violence,” “You and I,” and “Lavida Local,” with various artistes joining the King of Rap on stage.
The star-studded lineup included beloved talents like Efya, Black Sherif, Medikal and the international sensation Libianca, whose performance of “People” sent the audience into a frenzy.
A highlight of the event was the performance by comedian and content creator Aka Ebenezer, known as Dr Likee, who brought an extra layer of excitement as he introduced Sarkodie, eliciting thunderous applause from the audience.
When Sarkodie finally made his grand entrance, the arena erupted in cheers as he kicked off his first performance with “Put It on God ft AlorG,” igniting the energy levels to new heights.
The collaboration with Black Sherif on “Original” quickly became the unofficial anthem for the night.
Since its inception in 2012, the Rapperholic concert has been a cornerstone for SarkNation and this year was no different, as the night was filled with electrifying performances, though not without its ups and downs.
Adding a unique twist to the evening, content creator Ebo Noah, known for his predictions, made a surprise appearance, infusing the night with humour and spontaneity.
Despite high ticket prices, the venue was packed, creating an electric atmosphere filled with excitement.
The event attracted a diverse mix of media personalities, influencers and content creators, including Serwaa Amihere, Gisela, Kojo Manuel, Ama Burland, Anita Akuffo and actress Benedicta Gafah, among others.
Sarkodie’s collaboration with Shatta Wale further elevated the night, adding another exciting dimension to the already dynamic event.
However, a few logistical challenges marred an otherwise seamless experience as the Grand Arena felt overcrowded, particularly in the VIP section, while the regular ticket area was extremely congested.
Despite these hurdles, Rapperholic 2025 was a resounding success, solidifying Sarkodie’s reign and delivering an unforgettable Christmas Day celebration for all in attendance.
