UPDATE/CORRECTION: Ethan Zuckerman corrected me via Twitter, with the reminder that the song was actually made during Obama's presidential campaign and not on the occasion of his visit. Though it was played throughout.
Barack Obama's trip to Ghana was full of play-by-play color commentary and even his own theme song provided by the Reggae band Blakk Rasta.
