Rhythms Of EME Baddest Concert
On 21 December, some of Nigeria’s biggest music stars took turns to thrill fans at the first ever EME concert tagged Baddest Concert. Held at the Oceanview Ground, Victoria Island, Lagos,
the concert delivered fun aplenty, as fans were thrilled by performances by the EME All-Stars and some of their friends. They were backed by a live band.

The show, which was preceded by a black carpet reception, kicked off with the trio of Wizkid, Niyola and Shaydee, who sang the national anthem. Their rendition was followed by an EME All-Stars performance of their popular track, The Baddest from their Empire State of Mind album. Each act on the label later took turns to perform individually.
Next up were Banky, Wizkid and Skales, who performed alongside guest artistes like Cobhams, D’Prince, Wande Coal, Ice Prince, Olu Maintain, Samklef, Waje and Iceberg Slim. Mavin Records boss, Don Jazzy also made a cameo appearance on stage to introduce Skales.
One of the many highlights of the concert was when Wizkid introduced and welcomed on stage his perceived rival, Davido. The youngsters first dispelled the insinuations that there is a beef between them, before launching into the performance of Davido’s hit track All of You.
Produced by R28, an events company, the gig had stand-up comedian Basketmouth.
EME has recorded numerous achievements this year, including sold-out concerts in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada.
