Lagos|Nigeria, June 9 2013 - The high anticipation preceding the 1st leg of
the Star Music
Trek
regional concerts was not in
vain as music lovers from the nooks and crannies of Lagos and beyond
thronged Jite Open Field in FESTAC, to watch their favourite
superstars Psquare, M.I, Ice Prince, Sound Sultan, KCee, Kas and other
exciting
artistes perform live.
Thousands of guests bravely defied
the Lagos rains to attend the concert and witness high-octane performances from
the star artistes.
Compere of the event, Gbenga Adeyinka, set the crowd reeling as he
dished out from his rich repertoire of jokes and anecdotes while boldly challenging
local talent who eagerly lined up at the venue as early as 3pm to join him on
the stage and prove their mettle.
However, it
was the scintillating performances- a rich medley of thumping dance steps and
pulsating rhythms- from fan favourites PSquare, M.I, Ice Prince, Sound Sultan,
Kcee, Kas, and Crystals that sent the crowd into frenzy with many demanding
encores from the headliners.
One after
the other, the music acts dished out popular songs from their collection of
hits, reaching out to the crowd who swelled the ranks in appreciation of the
stage craft and mastery of the entertainers.

M.I, in
between songs, paid tribute to the fans whom he said had greatly inspired him
to his level of fame while repeatedly urging them to ‘never give up on their dreams’.
In between
performing his hit songs, the prolific entertainer humorously described his
hustle up the ranks- mentioning his journey to Lagos from Jos by road via ABC
Bus- to become a notable music star to court today.
“No matter
what happens, you need to believe in yourself, don't ever let anyone take your
dreams from you.” the MTV-award-winning rapper-entrepreneur reiterated.
On the
other hand, award winning artiste, Ice Prince, who has enjoyed a very
successful musical year so far affirmed his appreciation of being part of this
year’s tour “I’m really happy to be part
of Star Music Trek 2013, can’t wait to connect with my fans all over the
country and make beautiful music.”
Kcee, whose
hit Limpopo has been on every major
playlist across the country over the past few months surprised one lucky fan as
he flung his wrist watch into the crowd “ I love my wrist watch…but FESTAC, I
love you guys more!”
Special
surprise performances from, African China took fans down memory lane with his
hit, Crises, and Harrisong also added to the intense excitement of the night.
Other artistes expected to perform at the nation wide event include 2face,
D’banj, Psquare, Timaya, Wande Coal, Obesere, Mr Raw, Dr. Sid, JMartins, Naeto
C, Tiwa Savage, Sheyi Shey, and many others.
Fans in Aba, Abeokuta, Agege, Asaba,
Enugu, Nnewi, Owerri, Lokoja, and Surulere will also get a taste of the excitement
as the concert will also tour these cities over the next two months.
