Wizkid And Davido Join Headliners For Afro Nation Portugal 2023
Afro Nation Portugal 2023 has announced the addition of main stage headliners Wizkid and Davido, as well as more new names including Little Simz, Popcaan and Focalistic – all joining the world’s biggest lineup of Afrobeats and Amapaino this summer.
Returning to the beautiful Portimao beach on 28-30th June, Afro Nation has a star-studded lineup already boasting the likes of Burna Boy, 50 Cent, Booba, Aya Nakamura, Fireboy DML, Asake, Arya Starr, Black Sherif, Oxlade, Dadju and Ms Banks to name a few. Now the Star Boy himself joins the party once again. With his silky voice and irresistible beats, the Grammy award-winning and multi-platinum-selling global superstar Wizkid heads to Afro Nation Portugal to perform countless hits including ‘Essence’, ‘Mighty Wine’ and ‘Blessed’ for the adoring crowds.
Wizkid has recently joined fellow Afro Nation Portugal 2023 headliner Burna Boy, in becoming the first African artist to take on UK Stadium headline shows in 2023. Wizkid’s ‘More Love, Less Ego’ tour is taking the artist to new heights just two years after his record-breaking sell-out London O2 Arena shows on the ‘Made In Lagos’ tour – which The Evening Standard described as “a triumph for African music’s increasingly globalised reach”.
Davido, meanwhile, has built a reputation as one of the most exciting and innovative artists in the Nigerian music scene, known for his infectious hooks and equally infectious onstage energy. With his return to the stage highly anticipated this summer, expect another crowning moment with the audience singing along to every word, as the feel-good party king dishes up all his hits like ‘Fall’, ‘If’ and ‘Skelewu’.
BRIT Award-winning lyricist Little Simz also heads out to the Algarve, to ignite the crowd with hits from her groundbreaking new albums ‘Sometimes I Might Be Introvert’ and ‘NO THANK YOU’, along with her classic tunes like ‘Venom’, ‘101FM’ and ‘Boss’. Always fearless and thought-provoking, Simz has been collecting accolade after accolade in recent years and next up is another moment to savour as she makes her Afro Nation debut. The iconic dancehall legend Popcaan will also be pulling up to Portugal this summer to heat things up with his most sizzling anthems like ‘Only Man She Want’, ‘Party Shot’ and ‘When You Wine Like That’.
And that’s not all. Another one of Amapiano’s finest Focalistic is announced as a leading name on this year’s Piano People stage, off the back of his London headline show at the start of this month. Kamo Mphela, Felo Ła Tee, Sir Trill and Skyla Tylaa will also appear alongside countless South African stars, such as previously announced headliners Scorpion Kings, Major League DJz and Uncle Waffles, and so many DJs and artists behind the world’s most exciting sounds right now. Powerhouse Musa Keys, popular singer Young Stunna, celebrated queen of genre DBN Gogo, trailblazer Vigro Deep, “future ghetto punk” superstar Moonchild Sanelly and many more will all be bringing the heat and stirring up the sand with all the latest moves this June.
Day Splits for Afro Nation Portugal 2023 have also been announced today, with Burna Boy, Aya Nakamura and Popcaan opening the show on 28th June, Wizkid, Little Simz and Asake performing on the 29th of June and 50 Cent, Davido, Booba and Fireboy DML providing the final fireworks on 30th June.
“We are excited to welcome Wizkid, Davido, Little Simz, Popcaan, Focalistic and more to Afro Nation Portugal 2023,” said Afro Nation Portugal organisers. “These artists represent the very best of African music and culture, and we can’t wait to see them perform on our beautiful beach stage. With so many incredible acts on the lineup, this is shaping up to be the summer’s most unmissable party, and our best festival yet.”
Following a momentous return to West Africa for Afro Nation Ghana during “Detty December” and a landmark show in Puerto Rico in April 2022, the very first Afro Nation on mainland North America arrives this year. The 2-day debut will see Burna Boy, Wizkid, Rema, Asake, Beenie Man and more landing in the Sunshine State of Florida between 27th – 28th May, for Afro Nation Miami 2023.
Afro Nation has become a must-attend event since its 2019 debut in Portugal. The festival’s rapid growth, which is now hosting events on sites of cultural significance across three continents, is a testament to the power of uniting the diaspora and showcasing the best of African music and culture. With this explosive lineup to come and the stunning Portuguese sun that you can always rely on, Afro Nation Portugal is set to draw in crowds from the UK, right across Europe, Africa, and beyond, for another unifying and joyful celebration of Black music, dancing, food and good vibes.

HM EyeJah Set To Drop His New Afro-Dancehall Banger “Party Cyaan Over”
Ghana’s fast-rising Afro-Dancehall artist HM EyeJah is about to turn up the heat with his brand-new single, “Party Cyaan Over,” set for release on November 14, 2025. Produced by Fresh Mic Beat and powered by RiverJam Entertainment, the track promises to be a full-blown street anthem with irresistible vibes.
A Vibe That Never Ends
“Party Cyaan Over” is more than just a party jam — it’s an energy booster. The record blends Caribbean dancehall rhythms with Afrobeat’s vibrant groove, creating a feel-good sound that instantly moves the body. From the catchy hook “Party cyaan over, bare bad gyal ah bruk it out here” to the booming bass and dance-ready tempo, this song has everything to light up any dance floor — from Accra to Kingston.
HM EyeJah delivers his trademark confidence and positive energy, reminding listeners that music is meant to unite and celebrate life. It’s that kind of tune that doesn’t fade when the night ends — the type you hit replay on without thinking twice.
About HM EyeJah
Born Solomon Badasu Gbeve in Tema, Ghana, HM EyeJah represents the new wave of Afro-Dancehall music — authentic, spiritual, and full of heart. His stage name, HeroMade Eyes of Jah, reflects his deep faith and self-belief, inspired by Psalm 17:8: “Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings.”
Currently based in Kpone-on-Sea in the Greater Accra Region, EyeJah draws from his surroundings — where Highlife, Reggae, and Afrobeat meet the streets — to craft a sound that feels both deeply Ghanaian and globally connected. Since debuting with “Takeover,” and following up with songs like “Vision,” “Balance Pon It,” and “Good Vibe,” he’s steadily built a loyal following that connects with his message of faith, perseverance, and unity.
His growing fanbase, known as SkulSyde, reflects a family of believers and dreamers — people who, like EyeJah, believe in striving for greatness no matter the odds.
The New Afro-Dancehall Wave
As one of the freshest voices bridging Ghana’s Afrobeat and Dancehall culture, HM EyeJah is helping define a new sound that’s proudly African yet universally appealing. His music carries the spirit of celebration, resilience, and togetherness — and “Party Cyaan Over” is a perfect example of that.
If you’re looking for the next song to turn up to, this is it. A track that says the fun never stops, the spirit never dies, and the rhythm keeps flowing.
Then you can’t definitely wait for the banger to drop

Cool JB & Inspiraystonner Deliver an Anthem of Hope with “Love in Sapa”
Rising Afro-fusion artist Cool JB teams up once again with multi-talented songwriter Inspiraystonner for “Love in Sapa,” a heartfelt fusion of Afro-soul, Yoruba rhythm, and street emotion that captures the struggles and resilience of today’s youth — those balancing love, hustle, and hope amid life’s toughest realities.
“Love in Sapa” isn’t just a song — it’s a testimony of survival, faith, and emotional endurance. The record blends Yoruba wisdom, Pidgin grit, and subtle Arabic expressions like khalas (finished), fulus (money), and mayya (water) to paint a vivid picture of love tested by hardship and redeemed by divine grace.
Anchored by Cool JB’s smooth, prayer-like hook — “Ka wọle — let’s make it home” — and Inspiraystonner’s introspective verse on perseverance and purpose, the song bridges spirituality and reality. The recurring chant, “Baba n da gbe — God is lifting us,” echoes as a mantra of faith, reminding listeners that even in scarcity, there’s always divine upliftment.
“We wanted to speak for every dreamer going through sapa — those who love, believe, and still grind,” says Cool JB. “It’s a message of hope — that even when you’re broke, God’s blessings no fit khalas (finished),” adds Inspiraystonner.
Following their previous collaboration “Family Matter,” the duo continues to prove their creative chemistry and depth, blending street poetry with soul and purpose.
Released on October 21, 2025, “Love in Sapa” stands as a defining anthem for the Afro-fusion generation, offering rhythm, reflection, and reassurance that faith and love can still flourish even in the hardest seasons.
