John Legend will play shows in Rwanda and Nigeria as part of Global Citizen's Move Afrika tour.

Created by Global Citizen and Kendrick Lamar’s entertainment company pgLang, the tour is part an effort to bring more economic opportunities to the continent’s younger generations through live music. “I’m honored and excited to perform in Kigali and Lagos as part of the Move Afrika tour — an initiative that not only brings unforgettable shows, but also creates entrepreneurship and job opportunities, empowering young people to engage with Africa’s growing music and creative industries,” said John Legend in a statement. Legend will wrap an eventful 2024 after performing a Prince tribute alongside Sheila E. at the Democratic National Convention and in Philadelphia in support of Vice President Kamala Harris during her run for the White House against President-elect Donald Trump.
