Hip-Hop superstars and pop-culture icons M.I and Naeto C have been revealed as headliners for this year’s Hennessy Artistry. The historic collaboration between these two heavyweights that have each made an indelible mark on the Nigerian music industry, was orchestrated earlier this year by Hennessy Cognac, the world’s leading cognac brand.
This year, Storm 360 artiste Naeto
C will join the likes of Eldee, Banky W, Tiwa Savage, Ice
Prince,Nneka, Kas, Sir Shina Peters, Bez and Mo’Cheddah, and other
prominent acts, who have been featured in the Hennessy
Artistry initiative.
“It is going to be an experience you won’t forget
in a hurry,” says Naeto C, the hip-hop impresario behind rave hits ‘Tony
Montana’, ‘10 over 10’ and ‘Kini Big Deal’. “We are working night and day to
see that this year’s Hennessy Artistry edition will be the best for Hennessy
fans, music lovers and our fans. Many of our fans have been waiting for years
for a Naeto C and M.I collaboration, and we both thought there was no time like
the present to deliver this epic combination to them.”
According
to Hennessy Marketing Manager, Tokini
Peterside, “Hennessy Cognac is glad to be working with these
exceptionally talented musicians. The fusion of their talent
brings ‘the art of blending’ to life, which is at the heart of Hennessy
Artistry, a project that seeks to further the interplay between our cognac,
popular culture, people and good music.”
