HERITAGE: South London Legend Giggs Drops Some Of His Classics And Deep Cuts During This Live Show In Lagos (2016)

Giggs' historic battles to get onstage and perform shows in his hometown are well documented by now, but we'll never tire of seeing him get to perform, especially when it takes him across the globe to places like Lagos.

This set from back in 2016—where he was joined by DJ Neptizzle and DJ Maestro, and Nigerian trio DRB LasGidi, and headliner Mr. Eazi—was a real moment for everyone involved. With his well-documented crossovers into the grime world, Giggs has always done well when it comes to adapting to new sounds and settings.

This show also came at a time when Afroswing and Afrobeats where on a massive rise across the globe (which of course continues to this day), so seeing the two cultures brush up against each other was truly special.
