In this episode, we dive into some of the biggest conversations happening across African music right now. We kick things off with TurnTable’s Top 10, looking at the artists and songs making waves and what the latest rankings say about the current state of the music scene.

We then get into AfroPlus Fest, discussing standout performances from Victony, Davido, Tems, Ayra Starr, NO11, Uncle Waffles and other African artists who brought their sound and energy to the festival.

Next, we recap Asake’s In God We Trust Tour stop in Houston, breaking down the show, the performance, the crowd and the overall experience. We also discuss Asake’s cancelled LA show and the circumstances and conversations surrounding the cancellation.

Finally, we spoke about Show Dem Camp’s Afrika Magik Tour. We talk about the show, the group’s growing international audience and an insider’s opinion that they could have taken a bigger risk with the venue. Did Show Dem Camp play it too safe in Toronto, or was choosing a smaller venue the smarter move?
