On Sunday, three of Nigeria’s biggest music artists will perform an “Afrobeats-themed performance” at one of the biggest sporting events in the United States.
Tems, Burna Boy, and Rema have been confirmed as the half-time acts for the NBA All-Star game in Utah, which is usually watched by millions of people on TV – though viewing figures have been declining in recent years.
