Inside the performance

Sound, stage & company

Documented collaborators

At The Crossroads brings together music, journalism, and scholarship to explore how art shapes politics and culture in Nigeria. In this showcase, Afrobeat icon Seun Kuti (head of Egypt 80) teams up with Ivie Ani, a prominent journalist and culture host, and Uzodinma Iweala, a physician and author, to examine the crossroads of art, policy, and society. Although a related in-person panel during Africa Now! in New York faced scheduling changes, the collaboration remains a vital exploration of Nigeria’s creative pulse. This page highlights Seun Kuti’s ongoing impact, Ivie Ani and Uzodinma Iweala’s public profiles, and the broader Afrobeat legacy that continues to influence global stages.
