Dapper Live announces “Trench Symphony” this December, featuring TML Vibez, T.I Blaze, KS1 Malaika, Osupa & more write something on this
This December, the streets are heading to the symphony in a way Lagos has never seen before. Dapper Live, a subsidiary of the Dapper Group, has officially announced the second edition of “Trench Symphony,” a groundbreaking concert that bridges the gap between raw street energy and orchestral elegance.
Scheduled for December 16, 2025, at the Balmoral Eko Convention Centre in Victoria Island, this event is set to be a standout highlight of the "Detty December" calendar.
The Concept: Street Meets Symphony
Trench Symphony isn't your average concert. It is a "cultural experiment" that takes the vibrant sounds of the trenches—Fuji, Afrobeats, and Street-pop—and reimagines them through a full live orchestra. Imagine the heavy percussion of Fuji and the rhythmic bounce of Afrobeats elevated by soaring violins and brass sections.
The Star-Studded Lineup
Dapper Live has curated a bridge between the legends of the past and the stars of the future:
- The Legends: Fuji icons King Saheed Osupa and KS1 Malaika will headline the night, bringing a classical depth to their indigenous sounds.
- The New Wave: Street-pop sensations like TML Vibez, T.I Blaze, Bhad Boi OML, and Rybeena will perform their hits in this entirely new, orchestral soundscape.
- Global Flavors: The lineup also includes talented acts like Lasmid, Kashcoming, Cazulee, and Dwillsharmony.
Why It Matters
According to Damilola "Dapper" Akinwunmi, the CEO of Dapper Group, Trench Symphony was created to "redefine live music experiences in Nigeria." By placing street music in a high-art setting like an orchestra, the event validates the cultural weight of "trench" music and offers fans a sophisticated way to enjoy the songs they love.
