  Koga Entertainment is staging a concert that has something for everyone. It is a departure from what is obtainable in concerts in Nigerian entertainment industry as most concerts only carter for hip hop and youth market.

Top10 mics has been long before now and doing for many reason , some of us who are old enough still have memories of Lekki Sun Splash and other concerts at open venues where people enjoyed themselves, feel safe and look forward to the next edition. We are trying to recreate the memory of good old days with the infusion of contemporary offerings. Aside this, we are also trying to create a concert where everybody will have a sense of belonging. We are tired of events where only hip hop audience would be catered for. We want an event where fans of different genres of music could mix and experience the thrill of live performances of leading lights in different genres.

Aside these two reasons, we figured that fans of these artistes are the people on the street who cannot afford to pay the exorbitant amount some concerts charge and just like people have tagged Top 10 mics,  it is a concert of the people, for the people and by the people’. We are trying to bridge the gap between the public and the stars at a venue where they can afford, enjoy themselves and be safe” Anu Awoseyi an official of Koga Entertainment said.

Therefore the concert is getting support from organizations like Beat FM, Cool FM, Wazobia FM, Naija FM, Bellanaija, Lindaikeji, Nigerianfilms,Ajele1, Ozone Cinema, LASAA, Swe Bar, Genesis Cinema, Olorisupergal, Thenetng, Lagbus, Shakara clothing, Ynaija, Soarnaija, Gabrielz 360 and many others.For security challenge Anu assured that it has been sorted as top security outfit has been engaged to provide security “we are using The Experience Concert Model as it is common knowledge that no single case of theft, injury, harassment has been reported since the concert started years back. So we are assuring the general public that safety of life and property will not be an issue as we’ve got all that covered You are all blessed .
