Night with the masters brings together legends of the Nigerian music industry

For the first time ever, six legends in the Nigerian music industry will gather on stage for a concert tagged Night With The Masters.

Ebenezer Obey, Femi Kuti, Bright Chimezie, Wasiu Ayinde, Shina Peters and Onyeka Owenu will perform, under one roof on Friday, September 13, 2013 at Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos for a never before seen concert. Continue...



Moving away from the regular hip hop concerts most Nigerians are used to, Over The Top Entertainment, the organizers of this concert have described it as concert aimed at those that love the music of the old masters of the game.

Announcing the concert, the Chief Executive Officer of Over The Top Entertainment, Otunba Akin Alabi stated that a lot of Nigerian music lovers are being left out of the entertainment scene as a lot of events are targeted to only lovers of hip hop music.

Otunba Alabi said, “Everywhere you turn to, you will see events that target the lovers of hip hop music in Nigeria.

“While this is a positive sign that the Nigerian music industry is growing in leaps and bounds everyday, there is no doubt that a lot of people, especially the lovers and followers of the music of the grand masters of Nigerian music, are being left out.

“That is why we have put together six legends of Nigerian music to perform in a special concert, at Eko Hotel and Suites on September 13, 2013 to satisfy the yearnings of their fans.”

Wow! I am young but I loooooove these guys. In my opinion these are the people who love the art of music and are careful not to get music bad. Not sure the many noisemakers around in form of musicians will stand the test of time like these guys.

U must be the biggest fool that ever lived. Femi is the biggest legend and most successful of them all. 3 grammys nomination no be beans. As far as international concerts go,none of them is in his league cos he performs more outside nigeria than in nigeria. Here is a man who regularly performs befor international crowd of 50,000 people with a full stadium. Seriously,u need to get ur head checked.

U are a mumu. Femi is nigeria's biggest music export. 3 grammy nominations don't come easy
