The press release describes the documentary as one aimed at creating a platform to showcase the similarities between continental Africans and Africans of the Diaspora through law, politics, and entertainment.

The first segment of Afro-Hop in Ghana featured M.anifest, Reggie Rockstone, J-Town, and other artists as well as political groups as they discussed the current state of Ghana.
