'Waka Great' Salawa Abeni to debut at Afropolitan Vibes
They’ve seen Ras Kimono and Daddy Showkey and Timi Dakolo.
They’ve even seen Burna Boy and Yinka Davies and Adekunle Gold.
Now, fans of the monthly Afropolitan Vibes will get to see what could be the joint performance of the month.
Waka musician Salawa Abeni has signed up to perform this Friday, in what will mark her debut on the platform. The accomplished lady of hits has been in circulation in recent times, working with her son Big Sheff to reclaim her spot in the mainstream.
Salawa is joined by one of the fastest rising entertainers of 2015 – Falz who should make many spill their drinks and wet their pants.
No word yet on whether the pair will do a joint performance although many pundits are saying it should happen.
Ghanaian legend Pat Thomas is also expected to perform.
Afropolitan Vibes holds every third Friday of the month at Freedom Park, a former colonial era notorious prison yard where a former premier of Western Nigeria Obafemi Awolowo was once incarcerated.
The monthly gig is reminiscent of the now rested Motherlan’ by masked musician Lagbaja.
