The British Drill rapper ArrDee has officially confirmed that he will be coming to the country at the end of the month for a scheduled concert.
ArrDee took to his Instagram stories to share Johnny Walker’s poster for the Walker Town concert set for September 28 to 29, writing, “See you guys soon.”
Born Riley Jason Davies, ArrDee rose to fame with his verse in the Body remix, which was instrumental in driving the track to No 1 in the UK, Australia and New Zealand, per UK’s Evening Standard.
“The success was rapid for the Brighton artist, who started doing rap battles at secondary school from the age of 13.”
The report adds: “Though the rapper has been part of the UK rap scene since 2021, he has yet to release his debut album. And he isn’t giving too much away about it.”
The 22-year-old artiste will be performing at the Laureate Gardens in Kasarani, alongside a star-studded line up.
On Day 1 of the event, he will share the stage with Nigerian star Rema and Kenya’s own Bien Aime Baraza.
East African Breweries (EABL), through its Johnnie Walker Brand announced the return of the event in a press statement, promising that it will feature a lineup of live performances from local and international artists, art exhibitions, fashion displays and other exciting experiences.
“Walker Town events have quickly become cultural highlights across Kenya, attracting thousands of attendees in towns like Nairobi, Meru, and Nakuru, since their inception,” the statement reads in part, adding, “These events are part of Johnnie Walker’s ongoing initiative to create immersive experiences that celebrate the brand’s storied heritage and cultural significance.”
