40 Local Artists Expected To Perform At The Wizkid Show
The Diamond City Concert that will be hosting Nigerian singer Wizkid will have 40 local artists performing at the show alongside the Closer hit maker.
The local acts were selected from a variety of musical genres around the country and most of them are urban music oriented artists. The local opening acts will be joined by international opening acts such as Freshly Ground, Ringo, Burna Boy and Sjava.
“We selected most of these artists looking at the demand and their relevance towards the audience. We also had digital polls asking people online whom they would want to see perform during this concert. We wanted to add more but the numbers we have at the moment are enough,” the organiser Bruce Nkgakile told Mmegi newspaper.
He stated that by hosting artists from different backgrounds they want to cater and bring a classic event, which is not centred, on just one musical genre.
Nkgakile stated that tickets will not be sold at the gate during the day of the event and he encouraged revelers to purchase them at different points mentioned on event posters and social media accounts.
Some of the local acts that will perform at the event are Han-C, Ban T, Scar, Chrispin the Drummer, Team Distant, Mr Yummy, BK Proctor, DJ Cody, Ammo Ski Mask, DJ Phouboy, Mlesho, Groovy Souls, NT Base, DJ Ricky Lamar, Darkboy Masey, DJ De Javu, DJ Khenzo, DJ Anthem, Strictly Housebound, DJ Ndox, WNDR, DJ Cupid, DJ Kenn, Luzkat and Drak.
