One Corner dance
The dance was inspired by Ghanaian musician, Kwabena Gyan, popularly known as Patapaa, after he released the hit song “One Corner” ahead of a festival in Swedru, a town in the country’s Central region. The dance which suddenly developed into an internet challenge, saw excited fans of the song moving their waists while bending down and making gyrating movements on the ground, mostly under various objects in so-called corners.
People went further with the dance craze; climbing electric poles and tipper trucks, dancing under cars, and so on, and this raised concerns about safety. The dance soon attracted many, including celebrities beyond Ghana and in the diaspora. Sadly, as talks about the dangerous nature of the dance began, two teenagers from Ghana died after they were spotted doing the dance whilst riding a motorbike. There were reports of some patrons of the dance also getting injured in the process.
