Rocky Dawuni Readies For AfroZons Pre-GRAMMY Nomination Celebration On Saturday, February 4th

Afrozons Celebrates African GRAMMY Nominees Rocky Dawuni, Tobe Nwigwe, Eddy Kenzo, Nomcebo Zikode, Angelique Kidjo & more at the AfroZon Pre-GRAMMY Celebration Party on Saturday, February 4 from 2-6pm at Habor House in Downtown Los Angeles! PLEASE RSVP to afrofunke@yahoo.com Very limited space available.
Afrozons founder, Sheila O, recently played host to Nigerian born American based rapper, Tobe Nwigwe and Ghanaian musician and activist Rocky Dawuni in Lagos, Nigeria to celebrate the first leg of the Afrozons Pre-Grammy Celebration. Nwigwe, who also doubles as an actor, is nominated for “Best New Artist,” while Dawuni is nominated for “Best Global Music Performance” for his single “Neva Bow Down” featuring Jamaica’s Blvk H3ro.
Dawuni who is nominated for his 3rd GRAMMY Award, states “African music right now is impacting the world, it has always impacted the world. But the world never acknowledged it because you only have to look at popular music and you know that the influences were more of a cultural conversation between the motherland and the Diaspora. But now with the power of the internet we have seen our music circumvent many of the traditional gatekeepers who used to define what the African sound is. I believe this is a new chapter in African music.” Dawuni’s signature Afro Roots style is a musical genre that reflects modern Africa. It is built upon the foundation of using cultural styles and integrating current innovations to create concsious music that is inspiring, soul stirring and danceable. As a dedicated activist, Rocky has been a leading voice for social and environmental transformation and currently serves as UN Goodwill Ambassador for the Environment for Africa, amongst other designations.
“Lord Forgive Me” rapper, Tobe Nwigwe, spoke alongside his wife and fellow musician Fat Nwigwe about his GRAMMY nomination stating; “For me it’s surprisingly overwhelming that they would have the audacity to nominate an independent artiste like me especially in this kind of category. I was shocked but it was a good surprise. We are just extremely happy to be in this position.”
GRAMMY nominees including Burna Boy, Eddy Kenzo and a host of others will be attending the event in Los Angeles on February 4th which is graciously supported by Ayeya, Star Beer, Black Music Collective and Afro Funke‘.
Please JOIN US to honor the African Nominess at the GRAMMYS this year!

M.Anifest Pays Nostalgic Homage To ‘Hip Hop At 50’ In New Freestyle

Ghanaian Hip Hop artist M.anifest takes us on a nostalgic journey with a new freestyle, titled “50 YEARS.”
Referencing Hip Hop icons like 2pac, Nas, The Notorious B.I.G, The Fugees, LL Cool J and the Wu-Tang Clan to name a few, M.anifest cleverly weaves this ode to a genre that he himself has come to contribute significantly to. A certified wordsmith, his skill allows him to craft a worthy tribute to Hip Hop’s enduring legacy as it celebrates 50 years.
From the genre’s origins on Sedgwick Avenue to the influence it’s had in many parts of the world, spurring genres like Hip Life (Ghana), there’s no patch of Hip Hop uncovered by the rapper affectionately called ‘the god MC’ by his fans, particularly when viewed through the lens of his lived experience.
Whether tipping his hat to Obrafour’s classic album “Pae Mu Ka”, or legendary Hip Hop albums like Kanye West’s “College Dropout” and Jay-Z’s “The Blueprint”, he poignantly comments on a culture that has left an indelible mark on marginalized beginnings.
The current torchbearers are of course not left out of the MikeMillzOn’Em-produced track. J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, A-Reece, Black Sherif, and Sampa The Great get honourable mentions as boundary pushers of the genre, emphatically suggesting that Hip Hop remains a vibrant and relevant force in contemporary music and perhaps in safe hands.
M.anifest’s commemoration of the 50th anniversary has gone beyond his music. This year, he has actively engaged in discussions in academia, with an appearance at Howard University as a special guest, where he shared his insights on Hip Hop’s evolution from an African perspective over the past five decades. In July 2023, he was in New York at Global Cognac giant Hennessy’s invitation, joining a roster of world-renowned rappers to celebrate one of Hip Hop’s greats, Nas.
