Nigerian music heavyweights Rema, Asake, and Omah Lay are set to take the stage at the 2024 Promise Land festival, joining a stellar lineup of international stars.
The festival, scheduled for October 4-6, 2024, will feature a diverse range of artists, including Jorja Smith, Miguel, and Busta Rhymes.
Rema will perform on the festival’s second day, while Asake and Omah Lay are slated to close out the event alongside Busta Rhymes. Other prominent Nigerian stars, including Tiwa Savage, Victony, Ruger, BNXN, Sarz, Seyi Vibez, Shallipopi, and music group Compozers, will also grace the stage, making the festival a major platform for Afrobeats.
Additionally, the festival will have a strong representation of African talent, featuring Black Sherif, King Promise, DBN Gogo, Major League DJz, Young Stunna, and Uncle Waffles.
The inclusion of these Nigerian artists highlights the global rise of Afrobeats, which has seen its stars win international awards and perform at some of the world’s biggest music festivals. The genre’s growing influence was further recognized by the Grammy Awards, which introduced the Best African Music Performance category in 2023, with South African artist Tyla being the first winner.
The Promise Land festival is shaping up to be an exciting showcase, with Afrobeats taking center stage alongside other international genres.
