Introducing ‘BN One to Watch,’ A New BellaNaija Features Series Featuring Future Nigerian Music Stars

BNers, we have some exciting news to share with you. BellaNaija Features is launching a new limited series!

BellaNaija clocks 20 this year, and we are celebrating it with what we know best to do: promoting and spotlighting African creatives. In June, in collaboration with Google Gemini, we launched the BellaNaija Next Gen Creator House, an initiative designed to help young creators build with intention, sharpen their skills and prepare for the future of the digital economy.

As part of our continued commitment to championing the growth of Nigeria’s creative ecosystem, BellaNaija Features is launching BN One to Watch, a limited series that will spotlight four (4) emerging music artists whose talent, creativity and dedication are setting them apart.

Through this series, we’ll explore their journeys, how they discovered their sounds, the challenges they’ve overcome, their creative process, and what they hope the future holds for them. More than introducing rising stars, One to Watch is about documenting a generation of artists creating the future of Nigerian music.

BellaNaija has always believed in telling stories that matter and amplifying voices that deserve to be heard. This series continues that legacy by giving audiences the opportunity to discover the next wave of artists before they become household names. The artists who will be featured in this new series are Firstklaz, Solana, Abefe and KWEEN B. These artists have distinct sounds that we believe will define the future of Nigerian music. They command voices that are unique to the Nigerian music scene.

The first episode goes live on Friday next week. See you there!
