Being from West Africa, I attended a lot of Afrobeats music festivals. One that stands out to me is the Afrobeats day party festival in London. It was an amazing experience; the food, the atmosphere, and the music were beyond words. It was the best time I’ve ever had at a festival. If you ever get the chance to visit the Afrobeats day party in London, do it.
Afrobeats Artists is the official YouTube channel of Afrobeats Artists, a world music label and a top-rated youtube channel on this site. The Afrobeats Artists Youtube Channel is where content creators share their knowledge about music and other topics.
It's been a while since my last post here, but it's because I've been busy elsewhere. I recently joined Afrobeats Day Party London, which is a 2-day music festival in London that aims to promote the continent of Africa. The music festival kicked off today, and so far it's been really successful. This is my second year going to the festival and I was lucky enough to be VIP, so I have a few tips and tricks for you.
