SMADE opened 2018 with a statement show. YCEE Live at O₂ Islington brought together some of the biggest names in Afrobeats and Black British music, turning what was meant to be a single headline concert into a cultural moment. Surprise appearances from Wizkid, Ms Banks, Falz, Basketmouth and Eugy created an atmosphere that felt like a family reunion for the scene just before it exploded globally. It set the tone for what would become SMADE’s most pivotal year in live events.
