Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by Nobody: 4:31pm On Nov 14, 2019
This is an opportunity for Africa to showcase its culture and tourism, it being rotated around African countries yearly would be a show worth looking upto in coming years.

at the same time build that connection between Africans, aswell as show the world Africa is not all that the International media may portray it to be.

This is an opportunity to showcase Africa, build employment, build commerce, encourage African travels, build tourism etc... but Africans would always be Africans.

Why name the show African music Festival and not hold it in an African country.

If you dont promote your own, how do you even think the world would regard your own.

My 2 cents..

I think the aim of the organizers is to export and promote African music to the world.

Lol.
Because they know most of these white people don't have time to start flying to Nigeria for shows.

So we will rather boost their revenue by going there to perform.

Because Davido wants to make money from his Mumu fans and dish out Frog rythms to them

Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by StrongandMighty: 6:23am On Nov 15, 2019
For them to snap pictures and post on Instagram.....



At least that's one thing every Nigerian celebrity is good at
Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by ekwerendi(m): 6:25am On Nov 15, 2019

Must we be enslaved forever?

What promotion?
It is because of d level we are as a people
U think if Europe or America wants to hold their fest it will be in another man's country?
Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by ednut1(m): 6:26am On Nov 15, 2019
Money and logistics
Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by valentineuwakwe(m): 6:27am On Nov 15, 2019

Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by Promismike(m): 6:27am On Nov 15, 2019
Because the shit of a continent has refused to be developed.
Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by edoairways: 6:27am On Nov 15, 2019
Africans should use the same media that was against us instead of touring from one country to another. Whoever organized this should have thought of it instead of just the monetary value
Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by Lugianostar(m): 6:30am On Nov 15, 2019
It is because Africans don't believe in themselves as no structures and reputations to bring the world to their door steps.
Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by ZombieTERROR: 6:31am On Nov 15, 2019
How can a music fest hold in a shithole continent....

Don't blame the musicians..
Blame the useless politicians and their shameless zombie supporters
They are numerous on this forum
Re: Why Is The AFRICAN Music Fest Holding In Dubai, Newyork and London? by DeLaRue:
The constant shouting of 'Africa' 'One Africa' has very little meaning to me. It's largely meaningless, quite embarrassing, cringeworthy and borderline irritating.

Building friendships, peace and extending a hand of partnership across nations and continents is worthy. But we must build our individual nations. I honestly don't feel any more connected to someone in Ghana, Mali or Sudan that I feel for Inuits in the far corners of icy Canada. My goodwill extends to all good people of the world.

Shouting one Africa all over the place means what exactly. Even within Nigeria, we barely tolerate one another. I notice it's musicians mostly shouting and screaming this one africa stuff.

Now they are holding a so-called one Africa event in every continent, but the so-called Africa. Just makes the black man look a fool.

Africa who do us this abeg.

American Musicians, Hollywood, Bollywood, are appreciated all over the world not because they wasted their time flying all over the world.

What are they trying to prove. Anyway black man with inferiority complex Sha. We always believe we have leave the shore of Africa to promote Africa.

Can we be more cultural than the a Chinese and Indians.

The organiser is just a businessman cashing in big time from this so call show.

They can still promote Africa in Africa. Are we going to be enslaved forever??

1. You can't afford to host it
2. Need to export the music to a wider audience
3. Logistics
