On October 24th, 2025, Europe-based Nigerian Afrobeat star Charles Onyeabor proved the power of rhythm and heritage as he sold out the legendary Hard Rock Café in Firenze, Italy. The son of Afro-funk pioneer William Onyeabor, Charles electrified the crowd with his signature fusion of Afrobeat, soul, funk, and modern groove, leaving fans spellbound from the very first note.
The atmosphere was pure magic as Charles delivered back-to-back hits including “Ifenkili,” “As e dey play, e dey show,” and his latest club anthem “Cho Cho Cho.” With a magnetic stage presence and a sound steeped in legacy yet undeniably fresh, the Nigerian-born artist captivated the audience, proving that authentic Afrobeat continues to break borders and connect cultures across continents.
As the final notes echoed through the iconic venue, one question lingered — could this be the start of a global Afrobeat takeover led by Charles Onyeabor himself? Visit www.jocomms.com for more news.
