LINE-UP:
Afro B (LIVE)
___________________________________________________________________
Was passiert, wenn man Hip-Hop mit Afrobeats und Dancehall mixt? Afro B macht es vor und trug seinen Teil zur Afrowave bei, wie er auch sein erstes Mixtape betitelte. Mit einer Hommage an den Fußballer sorgte er letztes Jahr mit seinem Track „Drogba“ für großes Aufsehen. Mit dem Song brachte Afro B frischen Wind in die Szene und Instagram-Kultur, wo sich die Menschen für die Drogba Challenge begeistern ließen.
Afro B (Ross Bayeto), is a UK based Afrobeats independent recording artist from South London,Greenwich. Afro B has helped to push the African music culture forward with the popularity of his music which continues to surge in global dominance. Starting his musical journey in 2009 with a DJ residency at a Caribbean club called NW10, the Londoner has since moved into producing hit music, highlighting his talents as one of the industry’s most exciting curators around. Afro B has enjoyed a meteoric rise, channeling UK, African, and French influences – on account of his Ivorian heritage. The South Londoner, who is also one of Capital Xtra’s presenters, spreading the sound of Africa on a weekly basis on his show Afrobeats with Afro B and is also heavily supported by the likes of Tim Westwood (Capital Xtra), Funkmaster Flex (Hot 97), DJ Target (BBCRadio 1/1Xtra), Ebro (Beats 1/Hot 97), DJ Norie (Power 105), DJ Whoo Kid (Shade 45/SiriuxFM/iHeartRadio), DJ Self (Power 105), DJ Camilo (Hot 97), Nessa (Hot 97) and Dahved Levy (WBLS)just to name a few helping him become one of the industry’s most respected and internationally known talents. In February 2018 Afro B set the internet on fire with his viral hit Drogba (Joanna) which has continued to spread from country to country and to date has now racked up over 100 million streams/views across all platforms with help from his viral dance craze the #DrogbaChallenge. Wizkid, Shaquille O’Neal, Wyclef Jean, Busta Rhymes, Ace Hood and Busy Signal have all released remixes to the track which have led to further mass appeal. Drogba reached #1 as the most Shazamed song in New York and sat at#6 on Billboard’s Next Big Sound Chart.

Drogba (Joanna) isn’t the only song killing the airwaves, as his other projects currently in rotation gaining international attention include: Shaku Shaku, Melanin feat. Yemi Alade, and Shape Nice with Vybz Kartel & Dre Skull.His mainstream Afrobeats takeover which he has pioneered as the “AfroWave” movement has garnered this new artist favorable media attention which includes press features and placements in: The Source Magazine, Vibe Magazine, BET, NBC News, Hot 97, Siriux FM, Power 105, 1Xtra, Okay Africa, TheNational, Noisey, TIDAL, Billboard, The Fader and Rolling Stone.

DJ Tunez (Wizkid/NYC)
___________________________________________________________________
His musical exposure started from listening to his father’s vast collection of Afro music. From the beginning, he was captivated by the effect music had on people, as well as the different emotions it evoked. Brought up in a household with both African and Caribbean influences, he was exposed to a multitude of musical genres.
A handful of years later, after realizing the power he had over the crowd by playing the songs of others, and quietly working on music of his own, he made the decision to formally have a go at original production. In 2015, he was asked by Wizkid to join Starboy Entertainment, as the Nigerian megastar’s official DJ.
The first real product of his efforts was late-2016’s “Iskaba”, a contagiously upbeat track featuring Nigerian singer Wande Coal, which grabs you at the opening “Oh my darliiiiiiin’!” It has become, as an MC at a New York Burna Boy show this spring justly yelled into the mic, one of the biggest afrobeats songs of 2017.

From sell out events at Amazura Concert Hall to private international destination events, DJ Tunez simply gets the job done. His growing brand is a testament to the resume he has built for himself.
