Femi Kuti to perform at The Headies 2012

Organizers of The Headies have revealed that
Afrobeat king Femi Kuti will be performing at the
2012 awards scheduled for October 20, 2012 at the
Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.
This will be Femi Kuti’s first ever performance at
the awards show. Of course, this also gives the
prestigious awards another look, as it is fast
becoming a blend of generational genres of music.
A few weeks back it was announced along with the
nominations list that Kuti, 50, will be inducted into
The Headies Hall Of Fame. ‘It’s a kind of privilege,
its good. I mean I would drink a bottle of
champagne when I get it, we will celebrate here’,
the three-time Grammy nominee says
The full list of artistes scheduled to perform at the
award ceremony will be announced in due course
by the organisers.
Other Hall Of Fame Inductees include Dayo ‘D1’
Adeneye, Kenny ‘Keke’ Ogungbe, Phillip
Trimmel, Olisa Adibua, Obi Asika, Femi
Akintunde Johnson, Sir Shina Peters and DJ
Jimmy JATT.
