Ibadan has seen concerts.
Ibadan has seen parties.
But nothing—absolutely nothing—prepared the city for the earth-shaking spectacle that unfolded at SLIC 4.0, the fourth and most revolutionary edition of DJ Scopeman’s flagship entertainment masterstroke, Sound That Controls the City.
It was more than a concert.
More than a festival.
It was a cultural eruption, a sonic uprising, and a moment of absolute takeover, the type that leaves a city vibrating long after the last spotlight goes off.
On that unforgettable night, Mauve 21 Event Centre transformed into the entertainment heartbeat of Nigeria. Not Lagos. Not Abuja. Not Port Harcourt.
Ibadan—the ancient city—took center stage, roaring with a kind of nightlife spirit that even its oldest residents had never witnessed.
THE BUILD-UP: A CITY ANTICIPATING A STORM
Hours before the event began, the energy in the air was unmistakable. Cars stretched across the road, photographers lined up like paparazzi at a Hollywood premiere, and attendees—glittering in sequins, agbadas, streetwear, and cultural regalia—filled the red carpet with glamour and anticipation.
From the moment the gates opened, it became clear that the fourth edition of SLIC was not just expected to be grand…
It was destined to be historic.
Stage lights beamed.
Screens flickered with the signature SLIC visuals.
Sound engineers fine-tuned equipment that would later shake the city to its foundation.
Then it began.
A SHOW THAT STARTED LIKE LIGHTNING AND NEVER STOPPED
One after another, DJs, hypemen, comedians, live bands, dancers, and frontline artistes seized the stage, turning the event into a seamless marathon of rhythm, comedy, vibes, and raw talent.
The atmosphere did not for a second drop.
Not once.
Every performer left a mark.
Every set elevated the night.
Every moment added a layer to what would eventually become the most talked-about nightlife event Ibadan has seen in almost a decade.
Cameras flashed.
People screamed.
Fans sang until their voices faded.
SLIC 4.0 was a sensory overload—and nobody wanted it to stop.
THE ROYAL MOMENT THAT BROKE THE INTERNET
But even with the breathtaking performances leading up to it, nothing could have prepared the crowd for what came next.
In an entrance that will go down as one of the most iconic in Nigerian entertainment history,
DJ Scopeman emerged—not from backstage, not from the crowd—but riding majestically on a horse.
Dressed head-to-toe in elegant white Yoruba attire, beautifully complemented with traditional beads, a stylish cap, and royal footwear, he looked like a king returning from a victorious conquest. The entire venue erupted—literally—into screams, applause, and goosebumps.
Dignitaries stood up.
Fans raised their phones like lanterns.
Security struggled to hold back hundreds trying to get the perfect shot.
It was a moment of cultural storytelling.
A moment of identity.
A moment that crowned DJ Scopeman not just as a DJ, but as the heartbeat of Ibadan nightlife.
A NIGHT OF RECOGNITION, HONOUR & IMPACT
As electrifying as the performances were, SLIC 4.0 also shone a spotlight on individuals whose work has shaped entertainment, leadership, and humanitarian service across Oyo State.

ORITSE FEMI: THE PERFORMANCE THAT SHOOK THE HALL
Just when the night was reaching a feverish pitch, the Legendary Musical Taliban, Oritse Femi, mounted the stage—and the venue went into a frenzy.
With a voice that cuts through the soul and an energy that feels like fire on stage, he delivered hit after hit, forcing the crowd into uncontrollable excitement.
People danced like they were possessed by the spirit of music.
