Freedom, One World Music Video by Detrench Wins The 2023 Telly Award for General Social Video

NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, June 5, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Freedom, One World, a music video from Liberian entrepreneur and entertainer, Abraham P. “Detrench” Kallon, has won The Telly Award in the General Music Social Video category.

“I am shockingly pleased and honored to have been named Bronze Winner of the best General-Music Social Video in The 44th Annual Telly Awards,” Kallon said. “We shot this music video during the pandemic in Washington, D.C., to let the world know that ‘we are all one’ no matter our differences. So many people lost loved ones and their way of life during Covid. That crystallized for us the need to understand that the world’s sustainability relies on the well-being of humanity and on peace, justice, love, and unity. This is what Freedom, One World is all about—the new world order. We need to end racism. Violence is not the answer.”

The message in his winning project also addressed the necessity for the world to end numerous societal ills. Kallon has also been approached by A&R for Warner Music Group and Sony Music.

Produced by Kallon through his DePRO Global-DePRO FILMZ division, FREEDOM, ONE WORLD BY DETRENCH (MUSIC VIDEO) was named 2023 Best Social Video in the General Music Category. The video was shot in and around D.C. in 2021 by Simms, a member of the Voice of America production team. The song and music video Freedom, One World was written, arranged, directed, edited, produced, and performed by Abraham P. “Detrench” Kallon & The DePRO Global Group. Cornelius “Bennie Ox” Wright engineered the instrumental beats.

The announcement caps a year-long celebration of creators and talent who truly stand out during a time when the ubiquity of screens brings more clutter than quality into our lives. These are the creators and innovators who break through the static with their creativity.
