How is African music taking on the world?

African artists are making waves around the world…and the potential for business could be huge

They’re winning awards and collaborating with artists around the world who recognise their talent…and the influence sounds from the continent have had for centuries.

Nigeria’s music industry could be worth $15 billion by 2025.
So, what next for Africa’s artists?
