Ziiki media just concluded their music recording camp ‘ZiiBeats’ as one of their artist support initiatives that provided a constructive platform for artists from different parts of Africa to collaborate and interface their sounds and abilities.
The camp was designed to promote cutting-edge partnerships by defying genre norms and enabling experimentation, fusion, and synergy among African producers and artists.
The talented pool of artists represented an international blend of music makers such as Ghana’s Sarkodie, Nigeria’s Iyanya, Tanzania’s Rayvanny, Nandy, and Yammi, Kenya’s new kid on the block Lexsil.
On the other hand, the lineup boasted an impressive roster of seasoned songwriters including Baby Son and Raspy from South Africa who provided an invaluable addition to the camp.
Producer extraordinaire CeeBeaats, one of the leading female music producers in the UK hip-hop scene, was also part of the recording camp, with her ability to dip into multiple genres, specializing in the 90s and noughties hip-hop and R&B, Afrobeats, Amapiano, house, dance, UK Garage and pop accompanied by Tyler ICU, a South African singer, DJ, and music producer is known for his unique sound, which blends elements of Amapiano, Afrobeats, and house music.
Other producers included the Multi-Platinum Selling producer Yumbs from South Africa and the incredible Blaisebeatz who has been a huge part of many artists’ success stories such as Fireboy DML, Chris Brown and Davido.
These top-rated producers were not only tasked with collaborating with the artists by introducing them to new musical styles and performance techniques to enable them to compete in the global market but also provided guidance and mentorship.
With the aim to create future hits, ZiiBeats has created a unique environment where artists exchange ideas, gain new perspectives, and potentially find future project collaborators.
From learning the art of beat-making to understanding the intricacies of producing hit songs, the expertise and guidance of these featured producers will without a doubt have a ripple effect very soon on the musical scene.
