Singer Mr. 2Kay marked a milestone with the successful outcome of his
Elevated Concert held at Aztech Arcum Event Centre, Stadium road, Port
Harcourt on Sunday June 17, 2018. The sold out concert surpassed
expectation as the singer delivered an experience that his PH fans will
not forget in a long while.
The event which was co-hosted by ace broadcaster, Olisa Adibua and
Alex from Big Brother Nigeria started with a packed hall at about 6pm. A
good number of Port Harcourt’s young talents filed out one after the
other to open the show before UK’s popular radio host and hype man,
Shope Shopsy took over alongside DJ Kev.
The heat of the event stepped up as Mavin’s DJ Big N took over the
turntables. He got the crowd warmed up before Olisa and Alex introduced
the legendary DJ Jimmy Jatt who grabbed the mic to personally perform
his classic hit – “Stylee” before sweating the packed hall.
Mr. 2Kay stepped out for his first set in white traditional attire
along with his band amidst cheers from the crowd at about 10pm. He
welcomed and appreciated the highly excited guests before opening with
his prophetic single, “Pray For Me” off his latest Elevated album. 2Kay
and his live band served some of his classic hits such as “Bubugaga”,
“Waterside Boy”, “Bad Girl Special”, “Count it All Joy”, and “Who No
Like Better Thing.”
He also did a tribute performance of Rex Lawson’s
song “So Ala Temen” before comedian MC Lively ‘interrupted’ the event
flow in his usual style. After that, Dan the Humorous and other comics –
Brodashaggi and Masterkraft (David Skima), K O BABA, thrilled the
audience with their funny theatrics and banter.
The show continued with Mr. Accolades, Charles Okocha and his Hype
man as he performed his popular songs, “Shove it” and “Accolades”.
Self-acclaimed Port Harcourt’s first son, Duncan Mighty took over and
then passed the mic to Mr. 2kay.
Fans enjoyed the thrilling performances by 2Kay who continued with
more popular tunes including “Belema”, and “Moniegram.” The singer
introduced Timaya on stage who continued with the pumped crowd before
Harrysong took over.

Hustlers, Maxi, Fortune, and King Perry. There was also a throwback
