Nigerian music stars Rema and Seun Kuti have been confirmed as performers for the 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
This marks a historic moment as both artists continue to represent African music on the global stage. Rema, known for his genre-defying hits like “Calm Down,” will make his Coachella debut, showcasing his unique blend of Afrobeats and Afro-fusion.
Meanwhile, Seun Kuti, a torchbearer for Afrobeat and the youngest son of the legendary Fela Kuti, will return to Coachella with his band, Egypt 80.
This lineup underscores the growing global recognition of African music and culture.
Coachella 2025, featuring headliners such as Lady Gaga, Travis Scott, and Post Malone, is set to celebrate diverse musical talents, with Rema and Seun Kuti joining other African artists, including Tyla and Amaarae, on the roster.
The event, slated for April, promises a vibrant platform for these artists to connect with global audiences and further solidify Afrobeat’s influence on world music scenes
