It’s Afro vibes this weekend in Lagos!

Happy Friday guys!

This week was all about celebrating the Legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti the creator of Afrobeat! It was the 20th anniversary of Fela’s death on Wednesday, August 2nd. It’s been a decade since his passing at age 59 and Fela has heavily influenced music, fashion, lifestyle all around the world till date.We have caught the Afro vibe through this as there’s a lot of Black movement and appreciation on social media.

So this weekend we are vibing the Afrobeat way!

There are exciting events happening around town so don’t miss out! We got you!
