Prepare for an extraordinary kickoff to Grammy weekend with a lineup that boasts the musical prowess of three remarkable independent artistes. Headlining the Grammy Weekend at Hollywood Palladium stage on Friday, February 2nd, are the internationally acclaimed Nigerian-American singer Davido, the Dominican rap sensation Tokischa, and the South Africa-based DJ-artiste, Uncle Waffles. Following the triumph of last year's showcase, which drew a crowd of 2,500, including industry heavyweights Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Nas, and more, this year's event promises an unparalleled musical experience.
This showcase gains particular significance as over half of this year's Grammy nominations shine a spotlight on independent artistes, affirming the rising influence of musicians operating outside traditional label structures. UnitedMasters, the driving force behind this musical extravaganza, is dedicated to celebrating global independence in music and showcasing the potential for artistes to achieve remarkable success independently. Steve Stoute, the visionary founder and CEO of UnitedMasters, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "We're coming back to celebrate global independence featuring international acts. It's an experience where artistes, brands, and fans can all come together to revel in the spirit of independent music.”
As the Grammy weekend approaches, the spotlight is firmly on the extraordinary performances that will unfold, creating a dynamic and electric atmosphere. This showcase not only highlights the incredible talent of Davido, Tokischa, and Uncle Waffles but also serves as a testament to the vibrancy and creativity of the global independent music scene.
