Following the success of the 2021 edition, the organisers of FUJI Opera announced that the premier entertainment platform, “Fuji Vibrations”, would take place on the 8th of December in Lagos.
The show, which provides one-of-a-kind live music, would showcase talents from the FUJI world for one night, with ten fuji artists performing on one stage at Muri Okunola Park.
The Fuji artists gracing the stage include K1 De Ultimate, Alhaji Sefiu Alao, KS1 Malaika, Taye Currency, King Saheed Osupa, the Mayegun of Egbaland, and other emerging Fuji talents to create dynamic sounds and a fun-filled Fuji festival.
In December 2020, “Fuji: A Opera” debuted at the Alliance Française de Lagos/Mike Adenuga Centre in Lagos with over 1000 people in attendance, including school children, culture custodians, Fuji artistes, celebrities and corporate Nigeria.
The organisers say the initiative is a multi-dimensional entertainment platform deconstructing the fuji genre from its enigmatic past & re-imagining it for a new generation of music fans.
2021 (Art x Music)
In 2021, FUJI: A Opera curated a series of activations, fusing Art and Music; the organisers launched a two-phased art exhibition in November in collaboration with one of Nigeria’s rising artists, Bidemi Tata, inspired by the Fuji Music subculture.
According to the organisers, the three-week exhibition was a collaboration with the Lagos State Government and the Lagos State Parks and Recreational Agency.
