The Congressional Black Caucus Institute (CBCI) hosted a special virtual event in honor of the United Nations titled ”The United Nations 75th Anniversary: The African American Experience Then and Now”.

Nielson & Co., a Culture & Technology Driven Digital Marketing Agency, served as the event producers for the influential occasion.
Representing Africa with a stellar performance at this historic and commemorative event was Nigerian Afrobeat star, Wondaboy, who was streamed live from Accra, Ghana. Performing a brief medley of two original and unreleased tracks created specifically for the event with a live band, the artist received rave reviews and a major salute for Africa for his efforts.
The amazing performance comes on the heels of the exciting year Wondaboy has experienced so far with multiple music releases. His latest song ‘My Love’ is currently enjoying global recognition with various spins and interviews in Accra, Lagos, the U.S. and the U.K. With additional music video releases in store, the sky seems to be the limit for the Afrobeat sensation.
