The event, which held at the prestigious FAB Lounge in Ikeja G.R.A. was powered by Girls Rock Africa (an initiative of Nikki Laoye) in conjunction with FAB Lounge and Praiseworld Radio (2014 Nigerian Broadcasters Merit Awards - “Best Online Radio Station”).

Hosted by Veteran Comedienne Mandy (who kept everyone in stitches for the duration of the event) alongside Praiseworld Radio CEO, Tola Omoniyi aka SpiceOnTheMic, the event kicked off with exciting solo performances by Sokleva (Rooftop Mcs), Xblaze , Base One and contemporary Inspirational artistes such as Giftberries, Provabs, C-Stas, Nolly and XL2Letters.

Comedians Open Teeth and Grand Komanda also took turns in dishing out rib-cracking jokes and kept the crowd thrilled all through the event.

The event provided a rare opportunity for Nikki Laoye’s fans and colleagues to experience the eclectic blend of Nikki’s music, as they were treated to electrifying performances of songs from the new album with the support of the Alien Nation Dance Team and some of the album’s featuring artistes including ace producer/artiste Xblaze, Baseone, Sokleva of Rooftop MCs and Presh P.

She also encouraged inspirational artists to make more music that deals with relationships and life issues as these are also important areas that need to be addressed in the daily life of an average Christian.
