Reggae, hiplife and r&b all have their place in Ghana's eclectic music scene.

Singer Irene Logan describes her style as r&b afro pop.

She won a national television talent competition two years ago and after a short period of collaboration with the show's runner up, Jane Awindor as Irene and Jane, Irene struck out on her own.

Already one album to the good, she is now working on her sophomore release which has the working title 'Rebirth'.

At just 26, talk of rebirth may seem premature but she has already covered a lot of ground and the distance that she wants to travel is far.

We met her in Accra when the BBC Africa Kicks bus rolled into town.

There we recorded a Network Africa video session of her acapella performance of the track 'Baby' from her upcoming album. She is accompanied by her music director, Joshua Ugboma.

Listen Irene Logan speaks to BBC Network Africa's Bilkisu Labaran about her career and Ghana's World Cup chances.
