Closing Concert Congolisation

Nadia Rose first entered the mainstream music scene in 2016, making waves as a strong, self-confident artist with a unique vision. Whether it’s coming up with visual video concepts, telling jokes, dancing, singing or rapping: she does it all with equal vigour. She became a mainstay with her hit Skwod: she went viral, and landed a MOBO as well as a spot on the BBC Sound of 2017 shortlist. The British press praised her as the UK’s ‘next major hip hop star’. Rightfully so in our humble opinion!

Ground-breaking rapper and producer Dope Saint Jude, born in Cape Town, took her first steps as an artist in 2013. A series of singles and neatly stylised videos was all it took to set the internet on fire. Ever since, Dope Saint Jude has been creating paths in formerly unexplored territory and consistently getting the party started on and off stage. In 2018 she dropped her second album Resilient, including the explosive single Grrrl Like. Today she resides in London, which serves as a base for conquering Europe and the rest of the world. Definitely one to watch.
