After months of heightened anticipation and speculation, internationally acclaimed superstars, 2Face Idibia and Wizkid, have been revealed as this year’s Hennessy Artistry headliners.

Widely known for monster hits and groundbreaking videos, the two will join a league of iconic talents who have headlined Hennessy Artistry in the past, such as Dbanj, MI, Tiwa Savage, Banky W and Shina Peters.

This year’s theme represents a blend of the matured, premium lifestyle and the young, vibrant lifestyle, which is generally classified as “new school”.

2Face and Wizkid will also release their first-ever collaborative track for Hennessy Artistry this month.

2Face exclaimed at the recent photo shoot for the headliners: “Great things!! Eau de vie… We getting it this year!”

Wizkid went ahead to share this on his Instagram page: “This year’s Hennessy Artistry is going to be massive and I am really privileged to be working with legend, 2Face Idibia… I can’t wait to get into the studio with him!!! Watch this space!” 

As with every year, a selection of talented acts will join 2Face and Wizkid on the Artistry train. These supporting acts will be announced later this month before the club tour kicks off.

Starting off as a cocktail-mixing contest between renowned bartenders, Hennessy Artistry has since evolved into one of Nigeria’s biggest music platform for experimental collaborations between multi-talented artistes. 

Since Hennessy Artistry was first unveiled in Nigeria in 2007, Hennessy Cognac has remained one of the world’s leading cognac brand, setting very high standards for other brands to follow.
