This is the first episode in our spring series, which focuses on Nigeria this year. In this episode, we talked to Victor Uwakwe Izuchukwu, the founder of Loudbase AF Entertainment, a hip-hop community organization formed in Nigeria in 2018. Loudbase is a platform “for creatives in the hip-hop community to nurture and groom skills.” They hold a yearly Hip-Hop conference, most recently in November 2022. The conference brings together hip-hop heard from around the world, especially in Africa, to celebrate all aspects of hip-hop culture. They not only focus on music, but also hip-hop dance, DJ’ing, graffiti, and knowledge.

You can find Loudbase on YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram
