Tems, Nigerian Afrobeats and R&B artist, has had an amazing 2024 with her successful album Born In The Wild. She’s done everything from Coachella and Jimmy Fallon to Tiny Desk, and fans are hoping that means we’ll see an extension of her tour in 2025. 

With three Grammy nominations she seems unstoppable, and we’d love to see her back in the UK to perform her greatest tunes like “Love Me JeJe” and “Me & U.” Register your interest with us and you’ll be first in line to get VIP tickets to any new tour stops.

No. 4: Asake

Asake is another Grammy-nominated Afrobeats artist, showing just how popular and well-known the genre is becoming across the world. He even released a song with Tems in December 2024, “Get It Right.” His most recent album, Lungu Boy, features UK drill artists like Central Cee and Stormzy, and fans would love the opportunity to see him perform live in the UK once again. 

As his songs are consistently very successful, and with recent upcoming releases hinting at a possible new album, it might not be long until Asake is touring the UK again.
