One of the highlights of the events was the spiritual 2Baba dominating the stage literally with his breathtaking vocals and mind-blowing performance that moved the crowed to tears. Flavour took his performance to a whole new level with an amazing intro with Tiwa savage and a masquerade to take it up a notch.
Tiwa Savage thrilled the audience with her unequivocal fashion and energetic performance of some of her A-list songs including Malo, All Over, Keys to the City, Wanted and many more with a major dance off with the queen of dance Kaffy, and her Son.
This concert themed ”˜The Lagos Dream` was truly a reflection of The Lagos Dream.
