DJ Merqury Quaye\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
Following her historic Guinness World Records attempt for the longest singing marathon, Afua Asantewaa Aduonum has expressed gratitude to DJ Merqury Quaye whom she described as Ghana\u2019s finest DJ.<\/p>\n
In a heartfelt social media post, Afua acknowledged Merqury\u2019s pivotal role, highlighting his enthusiastic support.<\/p>\n
Merqury Quaye\u2019s role in the sing-a-thon was occasioned by a call from radio presenter Ola Michael on Peace FM<\/em><\/strong> where Merqury willingly declared to support the cause.<\/p>\nMerqury Quaye, who is famously referenced as the father of all DJs, identified and assembled other top Ghanaian DJs to keep the music on rotation throughout the record attempt.<\/p>\n
DJ Ikon, DJ Sticker, Mr Shark, DJ Fantastic, DJ Legend, DJ Nesto, DJ Mark, and DJ Sleek were the notable DJs who played on rotation.<\/p>\n
Merqury showed unwavering support by actively participating in rehearsals, song arrangements, and offering encouragement to Asantewaa during her lowest moments.<\/p>\n
The followers of the record-breaking attempt frequently requested Merqury\u2019s presence at the scene to uplift and motivate Asantewaa.<\/p>\n
Merqury Quaye\u2019s impact in the Ghanaian music industry cannot be overstated.<\/p>\n
As founder of Africa\u2019s Biggest DJ Event, the Guinness Ghana DJ Awards, Merqury has committed himself to unearthing, educating, empowering and rewarding DJs across the country and beyond.<\/p>\n
Throughout the record-breaking event held from December 24 to 29, 2023, at Akwaaba Village, Accra, Merqury\u2019s infectious energy resonated, keeping spirits high among the thousands in attendance and millions who watched on live TV and via social media. Netizens flooded social media platforms, including X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook, to applaud Merqury\u2019s outstanding contribution.<\/p>\n
His great support did not only attract admiration from fans but also notable figures, such as Gloria Sarfo, Abeiku Santana and journalist Oheneyere Gifty Anti, who shared her appreciation for Merqury\u2019s impact.<\/p>\n
She remarked, \u201cIn all thy getting, get a Merqury Quaye. Well done, Mr. Quaye! You have set your own record and made your own impact.\u201d<\/p>\n
Reacting to Afua\u2019s post on Instagram, one user said, \u201cGod bless them (all DJs) especially Merqury Quaye, I remember him giving you sign to sing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another user reacting on Facebook said, \u201cMy favourite was DJ Merqury. Eii the hype was massive. I love him so much.\u201d<\/p>\n
A Facebook user with the name Alimatu Amissah posted, \u201cI did not know DJ Merqury but I loved him during the event. His support was extraordinary.\u201d<\/p>\n
Afua\u2019s sing-a-thon, lasting an impressive 126 hours and 52 minutes, attracted diverse Ghanaians and prominent personalities, including Vice President Dr. Bawumia, Sarkodie, Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, Berla Mundi, Nana Ama McBrown, among others.<\/p>\n
