The maiden edition of the Soundcity MVP Awards Festival ended in the early hours of Friday amidst fanfare.

Held at the Expo Center, Eko Hotel & Suites Lagos, the organizers put up an amazing event but it was not without a few hitches.

Just like the Headies, a handful of nominees and winners were absent at the show.

However, the host of the night, Basketmouth, did manage to keep the tempo high.

The well-attended event also featured electrifying performances from Lil Kesh, Patoranking, Falz, Niniola, Tekno, Olamide, Vanessa Mdee, Victoria Kimani, Mr. Eazi, Simi, Humblesmith, Koker, among many others.
