Chance the Rapper and Vic Mensa have announced the Black Star Line Festival, a new event scheduled for January 6, 2023 in Accra, Ghana’s Black Star Square. “Everything we’re doing is with the goal of uniting and building a bridge between black people of the diaspora and the globe, with the continent,” Mensa said in a statement. “And Ghana is the gateway to all of that.” The pair did not reveal a lineup as part of their announcement.
