With less than six weeks to MTV Africa Music Awards with Zain (MAMA), Nigerian music fans are set for a dazzling foretaste of the glittering Awards celebrations during the upcoming ROAD TO MAMA party tour, thanks to MTV base and Zain.
Road to MAMA – Nigeria, will be held at Volar Bar and Café, Victoria Island, Lagos on Saturday 26 September, 2009 and will spotlight sizzling hot Nigerian artists M.I., El Dee and Wande Coal, with an electrifying live set from special guest, South African hip hop maverick, HHP. MTV base and Zain will convert the entire Jade Palace building into a two-level super club for an unforgettable night of the biggest non-stop beats from Nigeria’s top DJs and high octane performances from some of Africa’s own superstars!
This will be a great opportunity for Nigerian music fans to see 2009 MAMA nominees M.I., Wande Coal and HHP perform in the flesh, before the trio go up against the continent’s best musicians at the MAMA main show in Nairobi on 10 October.
Between them, the trio account for a total of 6 nominations in this year’s battle for the coveted MAMA ‘golden microphone’ trophy, with HHP garnering three ‘nods’ from the MAMAs Academy (Best Male, Artist of the Year, and Best Video), M.I. revelling in two nominations (Best New Act and Best Hip Hop) and Wande Coal up for Best Group as part of his other gig with the Mo’ Hits Allstars.
Also helping to keeping the party vibe at maximum velocity will also be DJ Midas, DJ Neptune and DJ Humility, plus other guest DJs, to be announced shortly.
