About the genre and artists:

Afrobeats is a modern West African music genre that interweaves hip-hop, dancehall, R&B and electronic music. The genre has its roots in Nigeria and Ghana and emerged in the late 2000s, inspired by the classic Afrobeat universe made famous by Fela Kuti in the 1960s and 1970s.

DJ MOF!YAH is an established artist who lives up to her stage name "More Fire". With African roots, she has performed at major festivals including Roskilde Festival, Smukfest, Distortion, Copenhagen Pride, Northside and P3 Din Gata. She has also opened for renowned African artists such as Omah Lay, CKay, Tayc, Diamond Platnumz and DJ Maphorisa.

Clovis is a prominent figure on the Danish music scene with hits such as "Mango" and "KOLOM". He explores afrobeats and amapiano blended with Danish lyrics and modern pop, inviting movement and community.
