FEMI KUTI, PSQUARE, WHIZKID JOIN 2FACE, MI, AND SSP FOR TOP10 MICS

Weeks of high suspense, waiting, guessing, prediction and race to win the array of prizes put together by KOGA Entertainment as giveaways for those who correctly guessed the names of the remaining five artistes that will perform at the highly anticipated concert of 2011, the TOP10 MICS.

It will be recalled that on September 9, 2011, KOGA Entertainment, released five out of the 10 artistes who will be performing at the highly anticipated concert of the year come December 23 at TBS, Lagos. The five acts are African queen crooner, Tuface Idibia, rapper, MI, Afro juju creator, Sir Shina Peters, Paramount King of Fuji, Obesere and Trybesmen honcho, Eldee.
In a bid to engage the general public, KOGA Entertainment asked people to predict the remaining five artistes and win blackberry phones, mini laptops, TV sets and designer wears from Shakara Clothing. Thus, the race began, the competition ended last week Friday with no one getting the prediction right.

“The weeks of the predictions were the most exciting weeks at Bigsam Media. Some people came close with their predictions, some had depths, others were funny while some were completely way off mark. We thank the people for participating and hope they will win gifts in the competition that will still follow this campaign’’ the agency said..

However, KOGA Entertainment has revealed the identity of the five remaining artistes that will be performing alongside Tuface Idibia, Eldee, Sir Shina Peters, M.I and Obesere.
Emerging Afro beat legend, Femi Kuti, will be leading the new generation artistes which includes Port Harcourt’s first son, Duncan Mighty, youngster, Whizkid, female singer, Mocheddah and the Okoye twins, P-Square in the concert that has been tagged the concert of the people, by the people and for the people.

So, come December 23rd, at the expansive venue, Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS), Lagos, TOP 10 MICS concert will parade 10 leading lights in the Nigerian music industry namely Tuface, Femi Kuti, Eldee Tha Don, Sir Shina Peters, MI, Duncan Mighty, Mochedah, P-Square, Obesere and Whizkid.

In a concert that is akin to an eclectic collection of different genres of music ranging from hip hop to RnB, afro beat, juju, dancehall, pop, highlife and others.

Koga Entertainment is staging a concert that has something for everyone. It is a departure from what is obtainable in concerts in Nigerian entertainment industry as most concerts only carter for hip hop and youth market.

‘ We are doing Top10 MICS for many reasons, long before now, some of us who are old enough still have memories of Lekki Sun Splash and other concerts at open venues where people enjoyed themselves, feel safe and look forward to the next edition. We are trying to recreate the memory of good old days with the infusion of contemporary offerings. Aside this, we are also trying to create a concert where everybody will have a sense of belonging. We are tired of events where only hip hop audience would be catered for. We want an event where fans of different genres of music could mix and experience the thrill of live performances of leading lights in different genres.
