Upcoming Afrobeats Shows in the DMV: Whither P – Square?

As we transition to the fall, it had been shaping up to be quite a busy season of Nigerian superstars performing in the DMV.  Yesterday, Signature Style Entertainment, a major DMV promoter of prominent Nigerian musicians who tour in the DMV (see their past events here) posted an Eventbrite link to purchase tickets for a P-Square show on September 13th at a venue tbd (even staid elderly Africanist consultants who rarely leave the international hotel chain in Accra where they spend most of their time should know the duo from songs like ‘Chop my Money‘).

However, the link is already down and the promotional poster for the tour lists no east coast performances.  In fact, the poster shows that they are slated to perform in Dallas on the 14th (although it also has them going from Chicago to Houston in a day).

In any event, if P-Square doesn’t make it out this way, emerging star Timaya is slated to get us to shake our ‘Bum Bum‘ in early October – Miley Cyrus only wishes she could twerk like those video vixens.  Tickets are on sale now, but I think I may wait a bit before buying.
