The event featured unique performances, including never-seen-before contortionist act, D+R. The duo, comprising of DFlex and Richy, performed their double-jointed spectacle alongside headline acts like Timaya, Slyde and Rayce, as well as dance group, DNMT and saxophonist, Doyin Sax.
The event was hosted by Sensei Uche of CityFm with DJ Neptune on the decks. Other celebrities that stepped up to the Black Podium included 2Face and Annie Idibia, Storm Records manager, Tola Odunsi; filmmaker, Kemi Adetiba; designer, Yvonne Nwosu and New York-based fashion photographer & Africa’s Next Top Model judge, Remi Adetiba.
All guests were treated to the bold taste of a Johnnie Walker Black Label cocktail and proved they have swag as a stepped-up crowd by posing on the Johnnie Walker podium photo stand.
