The Rise of the Hades: A Celebration of African Music and Culture
The Hades, originally known as the Hip Hop World Awards, has grown into Nigeria's most prestigious music awards ceremony since its inception in 2006. This event is not merely an awards show; it represents a significant milestone in the recognition and celebration of African talent, creativity, and dedication. The phrase "I am peaceful, I am hip hop," with which the event resonates, encapsulates the diverse identity of its artists and the broader cultural landscape the Hades aims to showcase.
