A moment of musical magic unfolded on the set of 3Music TV’s Big Conversation this week, as British-Ghanaian soul sensation Nectar Woode crossed paths with Ghanaian Afrobeats star Mr Drew, igniting speculation about a potential collaboration that could bridge continents and genres. The encounter, deftly orchestrated by the show’s lively host, brought together two artistes at different points in their careers but united by a shared passion for authentic, heartfelt music. What began as a casual introduction quickly evolved into a moment of mutual admiration, leaving fans and industry insiders buzzing with excitement.
Nectar Woode, a Sony Music signee visiting Ghana for the first time, was in the studio to discuss her soulful journey and her plans to connect with her Ghanaian roots. Mr Drew, one of Ghana’s finest Afrobeats talents known for hits that dominate local airwaves, joined briefly before rushing off to another commitment. Despite the brevity of their meeting, the chemistry was undeniable. “Nice to meet you,” Nectar said warmly, while the host playfully suggested an impromptu studio session, lamenting the lack of time to make it happen. “It would be nice one day for both of you to actually connect,” the host added, planting the seed for what could become a groundbreaking collaboration.
During the interview, Nectar shared her philosophy on building a career in new territories, offering advice that seemed tailor-made for the moment: “I’d say work, try and work with as many artistes as you can when you’re down here—artistes that live here that have a fan base here. Just mingle, create relationships, and it will take you a long way.” Her words resonated as a call to action, not just for herself but for artistes like Mr Drew, whose established presence in Ghana’s music scene could provide a springboard for Nectar’s ambitions in the region. She emphasized the supportive nature of Ghana’s artistic community, noting, “Once you create that relationship, anytime we could pull up for you, even if it’s your show, wherever it is.”
For Nectar, this trip to Ghana is more than a promotional stop—it’s a personal and creative pilgrimage. Born in Milton Keynes, London, to a Ghanaian father, she grew up surrounded by Ghanaian culture, from weekend meetups with the diaspora community to the soulful tunes that filled her childhood home. Now, with a Sony deal under her belt, she’s eager to weave Ghanaian influences into her evolving sound, which blends soul, jazz, and electronic elements. “I’m just soaking everything in,” she told the host, hinting at a forthcoming summer project that might feature collaborations with local acts. When asked about her excitement, she added, “I’m allowing the trip to take me in whatever direction,” a statement that fuels speculation about a possible Nectar-Mr Drew track.
Mr Drew, meanwhile, brought his signature charisma to the brief exchange. Known for his smooth vocals and danceable rhythms, he represents the pulse of contemporary Ghanaian music—a perfect counterpoint to Nectar’s introspective soul stylings. Though their interaction was cut short—“I know you have to rush out,” the host acknowledged—the potential for a soul-Afrobeats fusion has fans dreaming big. Could Nectar’s emotive chord progressions meld with Mr Drew’s infectious beats to create a cross-cultural anthem? Social media is already alight with chatter, with one X user posting, “Nectar Woode and Mr Drew in the studio? That’s a hit waiting to happen!”
The possibility gained further traction when Nectar revealed her current work with Ghanaian collective Super Jazz Club, a group she’s long admired for their genre-blending prowess. “They blend genres really well together, and they also have an electronic side,” she explained, signaling her openness to experimentation. While Super Jazz Club is already on her collaboration radar, adding Mr Drew to the mix could amplify her reach, merging her global aspirations with his local stardom. The host even teased a future event, Salafest, as a potential stage for such a partnership, saying, “We would love to see that collaboration.”
Though time constraints prevented an immediate studio session—“Give us an hour,” the host quipped—the groundwork has been laid. Nectar’s enthusiasm for mingling with Ghanaian talent, paired with Mr Drew’s established presence, sets the stage for a partnership that could resonate far beyond Accra.
