The POPULAR Ghanaian hip hop duo, Irene and Jane, are set to fire up the stage at the BBA 3 eviction show, which will be beamed live to audiences across the African continent, on September 28. Their performance comes on the heels of a similar appearance by Ofori Amponsah.
Irene and Jane, the duo whose debut album, 'Unveiled,' is in contention for Best Artiste or Group - West Africa at KORA, and Best Duo or Group at the Channel O Music Video Awards, both to be held later this year, will mount the BBA 3 stage with pride, knowing that their performance was being watched live across Africa. Ghanaians have thus been given a renewed cause to rally behind the country's representative in the BBA House - Mimi.
Excitement is mounting at Big Brother Africa 3 for viewers, while for the contestants, tension mounts as the reality of being separated from the rest of the world, and being watched 24 hours, slowly sinks in. On a daily basis, the Housemates are put through tasks and schedules that present some of the most thrilling live television scenes, that has the whole of Africa glued to television sets.
The Irene and Jane music project that produced the album, Unveiled, came about when Irene Logan, winner of Stars of the Future Season One, invited Jane Awindor, who was also a finalist in the same competition, to join her in recording their first album.
The two became known as Irene and Jane, and although they are currently working on separate albums, their collaboration was still receiving high ratings both locally and internationally.
The eviction shows of BBA are the high point of the week, as one contestant is removed from the house, and for the duo, Irene and Jane, having secured a performance ticket at such an impressive event, is a clear indication that the young ladies have made quite an impact on the African continent.
The BBA 3 show, which was launched in August 24, this year, has seen some of the most dramatic evictions, with Latoya being the first housemate to be evicted, after spending a week at "Big Brother Rubbish Dump" with Tawana.
