If you haven’t heard, Africa’s leading pay television provider MultiChoice Africa launched Africa Rising, a campaign designed to inspire Africans to become involved in community-based social upliftment projects. The campaign was launched with a pan-African, song composed and performed by top African artists, drawing on the very best talent from across the continent.

The 6 artists who have collaborated to form the song titled “Rise Up” are Davido, a Nigerian American recording artist and record producer, Tiwa Savage, a Nigerian singer-songwriter, recording artist, and actress, Diamond Platnumz (or simply Diamond), a Bongo Flava recording artist from Tanzania, Sarkodie (also referred to as Obidi Pon Bidi), a Ghanaian hip hop recording artist and brand ambassador, Lola Rae, a British singer of Nigerian/Ghanaian descent who garnered recognition as a dancer in the street dance group “Myztikal”; and finally Mi Casa, a South African band consisting of three members, Dr. Duda and Jsomething  and Mo-T.
