Shutdown returns for a special Black History Month celebration, headlined by one of the UK’s biggest Afroswing collectives – NSG.

Formed by a group of friends who met at school and grew up around Hackney, NSG have Ghanaian and Nigerian roots and have built their distinctive sound by bringing together Afrobeats, hip-hop, dancehall and UK rap influences. Since releasing their first music in 2013, they’ve grown into one of the most recognisable groups in the UK Afroswing scene.

Get ready to hear massive tracks including “Options”, which reached the UK Top 10, alongside “OT Bop,” “Lupita,” “Ourself,” “Trust Issues” and more. NSG also made history when they became the first act to reach No.1 on the Official UK Afrobeats Chart when the chart launched in 2020.

Expect a huge live performance, massive production and all the energy of Shutdown as we come together to celebrate Black music, culture and creativity for Black History Month.
