Afrobeats artist D?banj has announced plans for a joint tour with 2Baba and Timaya.

In a recent interview with Adesope Live in London, D?banj discussed the tour and expressed gratitude for the global success of Afrobeats, crediting both the industry?s dedication and the support of the African diaspora.

The tour, which will feature D?banj, 2Baba, and Timaya, is expected to showcase their collective hits.

D?banj also teased an upcoming collaboration with 2Baba titled ?Feeling Good,? which may serve as the tour?s theme.

Reflecting on Afrobeats? journey, D?banj noted the genre?s evolution from a niche West African sound to a global phenomenon, praising the African diaspora?s role in its success.

He said, ?I was speaking with someone the other day and he was like, ?Banger, it?s okay, you?ve entrepreneur enough. It?s time to come out.? And I said the same thing. I?m speaking to 2Face as well. 2Face was telling me ? let?s go on a tour together.

?We have myself, 2Face and Timaya. We have great bodies of work. Because of how our industry is, there is a big market for everyone. So, yes, we will be going on a tour?

?I?m also dropping a new song with 2Face soon titled ?Feeling Good.? For those who have waited, I want to thank you guys. I think that would be the tag of the tour -just to thank. Because looking back 20 years?

?Now everybody is Afrobeats, everybody is African. But I remember when in this London it was not that great for you to say you are a Nigerian. We all wanted to be Jamaicans. Back then, everybody was embracing Jamaica so for us [Africans] to be the new pop [it is a big deal].

?These days, there is no UK movie that I?ve seen and our music is not in. So a big kudos not just to the creatives but to the whole community?. (The Nation)
