M:E Entertainment, in partnership with DAPO, presents Black Coffee — Lagos, April 5, 2026 The Grammy-winning architect of afro house—the artist who carried the continent’s sound to Ibiza, New York,
Amsterdam, and São Paulo—arrives in Lagos. One night. One city. One unmissable moment.
There is a version of the electronic music conversation in which Lagos doesn’t exist. M:E Entertainment, along with DAPO, have spent two years dismantling it, and on Sunday, April 5, 2026, they will make their most definitive statementyet.
Lagos has long been celebrated as the undisputed capital of
Afrobeats, a city whose sound has conquered global charts and
redefined what African music means to the world. But beneath
that story, another movement has been building. In clubs,
warehouses, and intimate late-night rooms, a community of
electronic music lovers has quietly established Lagos as one of
Africa’s most vital scenes for house music. M:E Entertainmentdidn’t discover this community. They amplified it.
Last March, their landmark Rampa Lagos event, featuring
surprise appearances from Burna Boy and Olamide alongside the
internationally revered Rampa, set a new benchmark for live
entertainment in Nigeria and signalled to the world that this city
had more to say.
Now, they’re ready to say it louder.
M:E Entertainment and DAPO are bringing Black Coffee to Lagos. The Grammy Award-winning South African DJ and producer, born Nkosinathi Innocent Maphumulo in Durban, is the genre’s most iconic figure. He carried afro house fromJohannesburg to the world’s most hallowed stages: Ibiza’s DC10,
New York’s Avant Gardner, and beyond.
It is a distinctly African exchange. South Africa gave the world afro house. Lagos is now claiming it on its own terms, in its own rooms, with its own crowd. April 5 is the
night those two stories meet.
“When we did Rampa, no one could quite believe theway Lagos responded. The energy, the hunger, the sheer electricity of that crowd — it told us everything
we needed to know about what this city is capable of. Now we’re building on that. When people look back at how Lagos became a global electronic music destination, April 5 will be one of the nights they point to.”

“Our goal is for people to discuss what happens in Lagos with the same reverence they hold for Fabric or DC10. April
5th is the next milestone in making that real.”
