Music has always been an intrinsic part of Lagos, hence, it’s dubbed the melting pot of cultures, and why the city is so unique. This vibrancy was brought to the fore on Thursday, December 14, as the city was lit up with unmatched energy, as music enthusiasts and industry key players marked the launch of global music distribution powerhouse, UnitedMasters in Nigeria.

The much anticipated ‘Live From Lagos’ concert saw electrifying performances from renowned artistes who brought the house down with an impressive show at the Livespot Entertainment Centre in Ikate, Lekki.

The concert started with an explosion of sound and colour, setting the tone for what many described as an evening of musical ecstasy. Opening acts Millymay, Syntiat and Gimba from the Sarz Academy set the night rolling, while high energy performances by Reekado Banks, BNXN, Lojay and DJs Maze x Mxtreme and Dope Caesar were infectious. Fans and guests danced and sang along to every beat even as the CEO of UnitedMasters, Steve Stoute’s address was like the icing on the cake.

Nigerian-American rapper, Tobe Nwigwe, didn’t hold back when it came to delivering an exceptional setlist as he performed in Nigeria for the first time ever. Showcasing a range from chart-topping hits to soulful ballads, his band’s versatility captivated the audience throughout the entire show.

Beyond the music, the concert became a symbol of unity and celebration as the ‘Live from Lagos’ concert was in collaboration with Don Julio, a leading luxurious tequila brand recognised by connoisseurs around the globe.
